Rohit Kewat
Experienced in full-stack embedded development spanning schematic review, bare-metal firmware, RTOS, Linux drivers, and bootloader — actively bridging firmware and hardware teams during board bring-up and system validation.
Proven ability to identify cross-domain bugs (hardware and firmware), having caught critical issues such as swapped SPI lines and reset signal faults during live board bring-up.
