Computer Engineering @ UC San Diego

Nixon Lesmana

I build software projects and I’m especially interested in backend systems, embedded software, and hardware-oriented engineering.

Most of the projects I’ve built so far are software-based, but I’m working toward backend development, embedded systems, and lower-level engineering areas like digital integrated circuit design.

What I care about

Building practical systems, understanding how they work underneath, and writing software with a strong technical foundation.

Current goal

Keep growing in backend, embedded systems, and hardware-oriented engineering through more focused projects.

Focus

What I'm Building

A quick look at the areas I’m most interested in and the direction I want my work to keep growing in.

Most of my work so far has been software-based, with a growing interest in lower-level systems.

I’m especially interested in backend development, embedded software, and how software connects to hardware.

I want my projects to show stronger technical depth, clearer thinking, and better engineering decisions.
