Curriculum vitae / updated October 2026

Rayhan Mia.

Software & robotics · Final-year BSc, Maynooth University

Open to software & robotics roles · 2027

Tullamore, Ireland · open to relocating

I build software and the systems it runs on, from Volt, an Android app on Google Play, to embedded vision pipelines, flight control and C++ firmware. I work mainly in Python, TypeScript, Java and C++.

Projects

Volt Live on Google Play

Electronics toolkit for Android

2026/Solo

  • TypeScript
  • React Native
  • Expo Router
  • Jest
  • EAS Build
  • Built and published under my developer name, Nordrift: five offline bench tools (resistor colour codes, Ohm’s law, voltage divider, LED resistor, E-series lookup) with zero Android permissions.
  • Kept all maths in pure, typed functions under 75 Jest unit tests, including round-trip and cross-check properties, so screens stay thin layers over tested logic.
  • Cut the reverse voltage-divider search from n² pairs to n candidates by solving for the ideal R2 for each R1 and snapping it to the nearest E12/E24/E96 value.
  • Fixed a dark-mode white flash by deriving React Navigation’s theme from the app’s design tokens; wrote Expo config plugins for R8 minification and Android 12+ splash branding.

CanBot

Autonomous waste-sorting rover

Dec 2024/Team of 8

  • Python
  • OpenCV
  • YOLOv3
  • Raspberry Pi
  • Intel NCS2
  • Arduino
  • Drove the move from YOLOv2 to YOLOv3 after v2 failed under poor lighting and occlusion; led dataset collection and labelling.
  • Deployed inference on a Raspberry Pi with an Intel NCS2, reaching 92% precision and 88% recall at 30 fps and sending target coordinates over serial to an Arduino-driven 6-DoF arm.
  • Co-built the rover base: plywood chassis, servo drive and a fused 4×18650 power system with a 12→5 V buck converter.

QuadX

6-DoF quadcopter flight control

2025/Team of 5

  • MATLAB
  • Simulink
  • Unreal Engine
  • Modelled Newton–Euler dynamics as modular Simulink subsystems and validated each one before integration.
  • Linearised the model about hover and tuned cascaded PID (outer position loop, inner attitude loop) with step response and root locus, so four setpoints control all six degrees of freedom.
  • Chaired weekly team meetings and handled liaison with the project facilitator.
