Fasih Ullah SaleemElectrical Engineer

Electrical Engineer | Power Electronics | Energy Systems | PEC Registered

PEC-registered Electrical Engineer (BSc EE, UET Lahore, CGPA 3.79/4.00) with hands-on experience in power electronics, converter design (buck/boost, PWM control), PCB and circuit design, battery and power management, and power-system workflows. Additional expertise in renewable energy modelling and analysis using NREL tools (REopt, PVWatts), OpenEI tariff data, solar sizing, and EV and building load profiling. I combine core electrical engineering with embedded and software skills to deliver integrated, end-to-end solutions.

Open to remote and on-site roles worldwide · Based in Pakistan · Available for freelance, contract and hobby-project work

In the stack

Where an electrical engineer sits in a connected product.

The solid layers are the ones this role owns: hardware & pcb, firmware. The faded ones are the rest of the system I also build, so nothing is designed in isolation.

Relevant projects

Electrical 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.

  • Buck-boost converter prototype with toroidal inductors and power MOSFETs, oscilloscope probes attached

    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.

    • STM32
    • Power Electronics
    • PWM
  • Custom four-layer PCB for the fleet tracker on a cutting mat, with GPS patch antenna, GSM module and screw terminals

    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.

  • Automated bottle filling rig with a stainless nozzle, inline flow sensor, diaphragm pump and keypad control enclosure

    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.

  • Four-wheeled robotics vehicle with stacked microcontroller boards, motor driver and an ultrasonic sensor

    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.
