Summary
Zion Tran is an embedded software engineer with over a decade of experience in medical device manufacturing, currently building embedded systems at Cirtec Medical. He combines hands-on Embedded C and C++ development—bringing up microcontrollers and peripherals like SPI, I2C, and UART—with a practical background in process engineering and production leadership. Having progressed from operator to shift lead and R&D technician, he uniquely bridges shop-floor process control (including G-code for laser welding and marking) with software-driven sensor integration. Educated in computer science with OOP experience in Java and growing expertise in C, he applies AGILE practices to deliver auditable, compliant solutions for regulated products. Known for authoring IQ/OQ/PQ protocols and process documentation, Zion is comfortable translating regulatory requirements into repeatable embedded implementations.
