πŸ‘‹ Hi, I’m Matthew Koniecko

I’m a Software Systems Engineer passionate about developing intelligent machines that can sense, analyze, and act.
My work bridges embedded software, sensor data analytics, and robotic autonomy - connecting the low-level firmware that drives sensors with the high-level algorithms that interpret them.


Professional Overview

  • Software Systems Engineer @ Belcan
    Working in Diagnostics, Prognostics, and Health Management (PHM) for Pratt & Whitney engine systems.
    I develop and validate data-driven diagnostic algorithms that analyze complex sensor signals, detect anomalies, and predict system degradation.

  • Core Expertise

    • Sensor Integration: Embedded firmware, RTOS, ROS drivers, and real-time data acquisition
    • Data Analytics: Signal processing, health monitoring, and sensor data pipelines
    • Algorithm Development: Control systems, path planning, and SLAM fundamentals

My long-term focus is to develop robotic systems that combine robust sensing, intelligent analytics, and autonomous decision-making.

6-Axis Robotic Arm

A 3D-printed robotic manipulator.

  • Designed and fabricated all components with a FreeRTOS-controlled Arduino Mega.
  • Developed multi-tasked servo control and trajectory sequencing via RTOS scheduling.
  • Built a touchscreen HMI on Raspberry Pi for wireless command and position visualization.
  • Incorporated ROS bridge integration using serial communication and micro-ROS.
  • Implemented MoveIt2 robotic manipulation platform for robot control.
    Tech: C++, FreeRTOS, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Python, Tkinter, ROS

Leadership & Mentorship

University of Connecticut β€” Senior Design Project Mentor

  • Mentoring a cross discipline senior design team in developing a Robotic Fleet Health Management System.
  • Guiding students through system architecture, sensor integration, data pipelines, and anomaly detection for fleet analytics.
  • The project integrates onboard sensors, real-time data transmission, and a dashboard for fleet diagnostics β€” extending my professional experience in PHM (Prognostics & Health Management) to autonomous robotics systems.
  • Focus areas: sensor integration, data ingestion, edge analytics, database design, and real-time visualization for multi-robot fleets.
