About Vivek

I am an Embedded Software Engineer with over 25 years of professional experience in C, C++, real-time systems, embedded software development, and Linux systems programming.

I have held senior engineering positions, including Principal Software Engineer at Raytheon and Staff Engineer at Samsung Cambridge. Throughout my career, I have worked with companies including Sony, Sky, Cisco, STMicroelectronics, Imagination Technologies, Siemens, and Leonardo. My experience spans diverse industries, including defence, IoT, EV charging, networking, and marine technology, developing software for complex, safety-critical and mission-critical systems.

My expertise extends to Linux device drivers, kernel internals, Python, AWS cloud development, and end-to-end software project development. I bring this industry experience into my lessons, helping students understand how programming concepts are applied in real-world engineering projects.

Beyond engineering, I have always enjoyed guiding and mentoring others. I have trained junior engineers in Agile environments and helped colleagues strengthen their programming and problem-solving skills, which naturally led me to tutoring.

My lessons are suitable for beginners taking their first steps in programming, university students, and experienced professionals looking to advance their careers. I follow a structured, practical approach, progressing from fundamental concepts to industry-standard software development practices, including hands-on projects, debugging, testing, and code reviews.

I also provide career guidance, interview-focused training, coding practice, and mock technical interviews to help students prepare for professional software engineering roles.

My goal as a tutor is to help students develop strong programming fundamentals, practical engineering skills, and the confidence to approach real-world software development challenges independently.

About the lesson

My teaching approach is practical, structured, and tailored to your goals. Before we begin, I assess your current level, technical background, and objectives so that every session is focused and purposeful. Whether you are starting from scratch, preparing for exams, developing real-world software projects, or getting ready for technical interviews, I structure each lesson around your learning needs and career aspirations.

A typical lesson combines conceptual understanding with hands-on practice. We begin with a clear explanation of the core concept, followed by practical examples, coding exercises, and problem-solving activities. I focus on helping you understand how and why things work, rather than simply memorising syntax or solutions. As you progress, we introduce debugging, testing, code reviews, and industry-standard software development practices.

I teach a broad range of programming and software engineering topics, including:

Programming: C, C++, C#, Python, Shell and Bash scripting.

Embedded Systems: Embedded C/C++, real-time systems, microcontrollers, STM32, Linux device drivers, kernel internals, bootloaders, and embedded software development.

Cloud Computing: AWS fundamentals, cloud-native application development, AWS certification preparation, and hands-on AWS projects.

Professional Software Development: Git, GitHub, DevOps, CI/CD, Docker, debugging, unit testing, static analysis, and end-to-end software project development.

Career and Interview Preparation: Technical interview coaching, coding exercises, mock interviews, problem-solving techniques, and career guidance.
For students interested in practical experience, I also offer project-based training where we work through the software development lifecycle, from requirements and architecture to implementation, testing, debugging, and deployment.

My lessons are suitable for beginners, university students, working engineers, and professionals looking to develop new technical skills or transition into software engineering roles.

My aim is to help you build a solid understanding of the fundamentals, gain practical experience with industry-standard tools and techniques, and develop the confidence to design, implement, and troubleshoot software independently.

Vivek's response
She was very interactive, followed the lesson closely, and responded well throughout. She was patient when the VirtualBox installation did not go as planned and receptive to guidance. At the end of the two-hour lesson, she did very well in the recap and successfully put into practice what we had covered. Well done! Kudos!

Deadly! Vivek is an excellent tutor and I would highly recommend him. He explains programming concepts in a very clear and structured way, and his many years of industry experience really show in the way he teaches. He prepares the lessons extremely well, which makes each session productive and easy to follow.

He is also very patient and supportive, always taking the time to make sure you fully understand the material. Our lessons often run over the allocated time because we get deep into topics, and Vivek never minds taking the extra time to make sure everything is properly covered. Overall, learning with him has been a great experience and I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their C/C++ or embedded systems knowledge.
