Portrait of Jin Won

R&D Consulting · Embedded Systems · Edge AI

I solve engineering problems that block products from shipping.

40 years across electronics, firmware, networks, servers, IoT, Edge AI, and blockchain infrastructure.

I help startups, SMEs, and sales-led companies turn difficult technical bottlenecks into working systems.

Core Capabilities

Practical engineering capability for companies without enough deep technical bandwidth.

01

Edge AI & Vision Systems

Jetson Nano / Orin Nano vision AI, image sensor boards, IP camera integration, inference deployment, and edge-to-server AI workflows.

02

Embedded Hardware, Firmware & Linux

Digital circuits, STM32 development, 8051/Motorola-era firmware depth, ARM/MIPS cross-compilation, embedded Linux, OpenWrt, and C/Python development.

03

Industrial Networking & Connected Devices

Wi-Fi HaLow, PoE PD, LAN/WAN, routers, switches, VPN, VoIP/SIP, DSL, AMI maintenance, and field network troubleshooting.

04

Backend, Services & Operations

Python backend work, web services, app/web app delivery, server operations, large-scale service development, and practical recovery of stalled software projects.

05

Blockchain Infrastructure & Mining Systems

Blockchain and cryptocurrency research since 2016, Ethereum mining server assembly and operation, network setup, and 100kWh-class facility management experience.

06

Technical Business Planning

R&D planning, new business evaluation, FAE-style technical support, vendor/customer problem translation, and engineering outsourcing direction for non-technical teams.

Problem-Solution Mapping

The work usually starts when the obvious solution has already failed.

A product needs AI, sensors, networking, and hardware to work together.

I break the system into interfaces, data paths, power, firmware, device drivers, inference workload, and server communication so the prototype can become a field-ready product.

The company can sell the product, but lacks technical execution depth.

I help define what must be built, what can be outsourced, which risks must be controlled internally, and how to judge whether vendors are actually solving the engineering problem.

A connected device fails in the real world, not in the lab.

I investigate at the physical, data-link, network, protocol, firmware, and server layers using practical debugging discipline from decades of communication systems work.

A legacy technical asset must be modernized without losing reliability.

I bridge old and new systems: digital circuits, ASIC/FPGA-era thinking, embedded C, Linux, Python, AI-assisted coding, and modern deployment practices.
