About
Hello, I'm Bek.
I'm an Automation Engineer based in Minneapolis, focused on developing automated test tools and intelligent monitoring systems that combine software, sensors, embedded devices, and real-time data analytics.
My work centers around building systems that automatically collect, process, visualize, and analyze data from connected devices and physical equipment. I leverage programming, engineering principles, and real-time communication technologies to transform manual testing and diagnostics into scalable, repeatable, and data-driven workflows.
I hold a master's degree in Computer Science from the United States and a master's degree in Electrical Engineering from Germany. My background allows me to bridge software development with real-world hardware systems, combining strong engineering fundamentals with modern automation and data technologies.
Skills and Technologies :
Automated Test Tool & System Development :
My primary focus is developing automated test and monitoring systems that integrate hardware with software for validation, diagnostics, and performance analysis. I build solutions that interface with sensors, embedded devices, and connected equipment to collect and process real-time telemetry data using technologies such as Python, MQTT, SQL, Docker, Grafana, and cloud infrastructure. Much of my recent work involves creating reusable multi-sensor test environments that automate data acquisition, visualization, logging, and reporting workflows, replacing manual testing with scalable, repeatable, and data-driven software solutions.
Data Systems & Analytics :
I develop data systems and analytics workflows for connected devices, automated testing, and operational monitoring. My experience includes data collection, processing, validation, transformation, and visualization using Python, SQL, PostgreSQL, MQTT, Docker, Grafana, and AWS services. I build scalable pipelines and reporting tools that help convert raw device and sensor data into meaningful engineering insights and operational metrics.
Engineering Foundations & Software Development :
My engineering background allows me to understand both the physical systems being tested and the software used to automate and analyze them. I apply principles from electronics, sensors, signal processing, and embedded systems alongside programming, databases, networking, and system architecture to develop scalable automated testing, monitoring, and data-driven software solutions across hardware and software environments.
I'm continuously developing my expertise in automated testing, real-time systems, data engineering, and intelligent monitoring platforms, and I value connecting with professionals working in these areas. Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn or reach out via email.
