Senior🎓
Top SchoolGhani Lawal is a firmware and hardware engineer based in Niagara Falls, Ontario, with a decade of engineering experience and roughly 2.5 years of hands-on work across professional, freelance, and personal embedded systems projects. He blends formal training in electrical engineering and machine vision from Queen’s University with practical expertise in PCB design, circuit debugging, mechatronics and robotic integrations. At Cellula Robotics he develops firmware for robotic systems, and as a freelancer he has solved production issues (DFM fixes, component sourcing) and delivered manufacturing-ready PCBs like a 512-RGB LED cube within tight power constraints. His background shows a knack for pragmatic design choices that reduce rework and field risk—examples include safety latch circuits for emergency stops and adapting legacy harnesses to new robot architectures. Comfortable coding in C and scripting in Python, he brings both low-level embedded fluency and systems-level thinking to multidisciplinary robotics teams.
