Hello, I'm Lester Pino Barragan

About

I’m Lester Ivan Pino Barragan, a Computer Engineer based in Vancouver, Canada. I work at the intersection of embedded systems and frontend UX, with roots in C/C++, firmware, and performance-focused software.

My projects include FPGA game prototypes, a C++ storage engine with concurrency & logging features, and a wearable navigation system combining AI vision and sensors. I bring the same playbook to each: clear constraints, lean tests, and fast, measurable releases.

Outside engineering, I train in MMA and dance—disciplines that sharpen my timing, precision, and resilience. That rhythm carries into my work: calm under pressure and efficient in execution.

I’m seeking opportunities in embedded systems, firmware development, and performance-oriented software engineering, where I can bridge low-level efficiency with user-facing impact.
