embedded PCB design 3d-printing

Hi! I'm Juan Carranza, an electronics engineer fascinated by building things that work. Ever since I first learned how to solder, there's been something deeply satisfying about taking an idea from a schematic to a physical, functioning device.

My main interests are electronics design, robotics, and programming. I enjoy working across the full stack of embedded systems: from schematic capture and PCB layout, to firmware, to the higher-level software that makes it all useful. I like the moments where hardware and software meet.

I also have a 3D printer, which has become an essential part of my workflow for prototyping enclosures, brackets, and custom parts. This site is where I document what I'm working on, share things I've learned, and occasionally write about topics I find interesting.
