About Me

I am an electrical engineer with eight years of industrial experience spanning from 2010 to 2019. Subsequently, I joined the University of New Brunswick in Fredericton, Canada as a Ph.D. student and research assistant while also serving as a teaching assistant.

My work experience primarily revolves around the design, simulation, and successfully building and trobuleshooting of various Electronics and microwave devices and antennas. I possess extensive expertise in both passive and active devices across a broad frequency range, from DC to 26 GHz. This includes, but is not limited to, superheterodyne receivers and transmitters, microwave passive devices (filters, power dividers, directional couplers, and duplexers), microwave active devices (power amplifiers, frequency synthesizers), and electronic circuits (voltage regulators, power amplifier bias controllers). I have a comprehensive background in microwave/RF engineering, encompassing 3D modeling, numerical modeling, and statistical methods.

Throughout my doctoral studies, I acquired valuable experience in radar systems and data analysis. I successfully defended my Ph.D. and am actively seeking employment opportunities.

I am working as instructor.

RF Design Engineer

2017 to 2018

I was part of a team tasked with designing a Ku-band transponder for television broadcasting. Since the system was intended for operation in space, it required adherence to stringent space-qualified specifications. My responsibilities included the design, testing, and troubleshooting of both active and passive components. My work focused on designing and optimizing phase-locked loops (PLLs) and power amplifiers. On the passive side, I designed, fabricated, and tested two high-power microwave filters with high power handling capabilities.

Microwave Engineer

2016 to 2017

I worked on a power amplifier operating from 9.2 to 9.6 GHz. My duty was to design a power combiner to combine the output power of 32 power amplifiers. Although the bandwidth was narrow, the specifications, such as expected return loss and module size, were challenging.
Another part of my job involved testing and debugging previously manufactured transceivers operating at a frequency range of 300 MHz to 1 GHz.
I also designed a horn antenna for the 9.2 to 9.6 GHz system, as well as several microwave filters for different frequency ranges.

RF Engineer

2014 to 2016

I was the project manager responsible for the RF section of a wideband Superheterodyne receiver operating from 8 to 18 GHz. Additionally, I designed antennas with various configurations and structures. In this capacity, I

designed, supervised the construction, performed RF tests, and troubleshot the unit until achieving the desired results.
designed and supervised the construction of a wideband log-periodic antenna and performed antenna measurements, achieving excellent performance from 800 MHz to 5 GHz.
