// Hi, my name is

Rohith Reddy Narala.

I build things for the physical world.

I'm a based in San Jose, CA, specializing in designing and developing cutting-edge electronic solutions from concept to production.

01. About Me

As a Hardware Engineering professional with an M.S. in Electrical Engineering, I bring over 9 years of progressive experience in delivering innovative electronic solutions. My expertise spans the full hardware development lifecycle, from initial concept to mass production.

I thrive on tackling complex challenges in analog/digital circuit design, power electronics, and embedded systems. My passion lies in leading cross-functional teams through New Product Introduction (NPI) processes, implementing advanced sensing technologies, and optimizing prototypes for manufacturability (DFM).

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:

  • Altium & Cadence Suite
  • High-Density Flex/Rigid PCBs
  • Embedded C/C++
  • Sensor Integration & Fusion
  • DC-DC Converters & Power Mgmt
  • AR/VR & Wearable Tech
