David Gonzalez is a robotics and mechatronics engineer with six years of hands-on experience designing and tuning embedded motor control systems. Based in Mexico with ties to the U.S., he blends firmware-level expertise and hardware awareness to improve BLDC and stepper performance, notably contributing bug fixes and encoder, calibration, and current-limit enhancements to the widely used Arduino-FOC library. He is comfortable navigating low-level data types, sensor alignment, and voltage-mode control, turning nuanced hardware issues into robust code. Colleagues can expect a pragmatic engineer who bridges theoretical motor-control algorithms and real-world IoT/embedded constraints.
