Summary
Xiaosheng An is a Senior Electronic Design Engineer based in Sheffield with eight years’ experience designing embedded systems, PCBs, and power electronics from prototype to small-run production. With an MEng from the University of Edinburgh and hands-on lab experience, he blends practical skills—oscilloscopes, soldering, PCB bring-up—with embedded firmware on platforms like Arduino, ESP8266, MSP430, LPC55S69 and FPGA development on Xilinx Basys3. He has driven production engineering tasks including BOM optimization, CAD data/version control, and test system development, and supports cross-functional communication between technical and commercial teams. His MEng research introduced him to soft robotics and Design of Experiment methods, and he maintains a personal electronics lab where he rapidly prototypes and experiments with new technologies. Notably comfortable with TrustZone-enabled MCUs and wireless comms, he stays curious and actively explores niche OS and tooling ecosystems in his spare time.
