Fasih Ullah SaleemElectrical Design Engineer
Electrical Design Engineer | AutoCAD Electrical | PCB & Schematic Design
PEC-registered Electrical Engineer (CGPA 3.79/4.00) building a career in electrical and hardware design, with a hands-on foundation in PCB design, schematic capture, circuit design and simulation (Proteus), power electronics and working knowledge of AutoCAD Electrical. I designed a custom multi-subsystem PCB (GPS, GSM, power management and sensors) for a real-time tracking system and built power-converter and control-system hardware. A fast learner eager to grow AutoCAD Electrical and design-drafting skills in a remote electrical design role.

In the stack
Where an electrical design engineer sits in a connected product.
The solid layers are the ones this role owns: hardware & pcb. The faded ones are the rest of the system I also build, so nothing is designed in isolation.

Relevant projects
Electrical Design work, built and photographed on my own bench.
Each card opens the full story: what it does, how it was built and which layers of the stack I built myself.
Lead: firmware, PCB and integration
An end-to-end fleet telematics system built on a custom STM32F427 board. The device reads GPS position and MPU6050 motion data in real time, detects accidents and rollovers, and streams everything over a SIM800L GSM link to a web dashboard. A full power subsystem handles automatic switching between the vehicle battery and an onboard backup, with charging and protection circuitry, so the unit stays online even if main power is cut.
Power electronics
A bidirectional buck/boost converter driven by STM32-generated PWM. I implemented the control firmware, then tested and tuned the converter across operating points, measuring regulation, ripple, and efficiency to validate the design under real load.
Control systems
An automated bottle-filling station governed by closed-loop feedback. Flow sensors meter each pour, a keypad and display provide the operator interface, and the control logic drives the pump to hit target volumes reliably: a compact demonstration of industrial process automation.
Embedded control
A robotic vehicle controlled over Wi-Fi, pairing an STM32 for real-time motor and sensor control with an ESP32 handling wireless communication. It supports both a manual remote-drive mode and an autonomous navigation mode, showcasing tight coupling between a wireless link and an embedded control loop.

Questions
What people ask before hiring an electrical design engineer.
What PCBs have you designed?
A custom multi-subsystem PCB for a real-time fleet tracker: STM32F427 microcontroller, GPS, SIM800L GSM, MPU6050 IMU, battery monitoring, automatic main/backup power switching with charging and protection circuitry, and relay-based control. Also converter and control-system hardware for a buck/boost converter and an industrial filling system.
Which design tools do you use?
Schematic capture and PCB layout tools, Proteus for circuit simulation, and AutoCAD Electrical for wiring and control diagrams (working knowledge, actively growing). Component selection is done from datasheets with design-for-manufacturing basics in mind.
Are you looking for entry-level electrical design roles?
Yes, open to remote and on-site roles worldwide, with a particular interest in remote electrical design and drafting roles where I can deepen AutoCAD Electrical. I also take freelance PCB and schematic work.
Do you understand the firmware side of the boards you design?
Yes, unusually so for a design engineer: I write the firmware that runs on my own boards, so pin assignments, peripheral choices and power sequencing are made with the software in mind, not thrown over a wall.
Also hire me as
The same engineer, seen from other angles.
One person, nine job titles. Each page argues the case from that field's side, with the projects that prove it.
