During January 2026, Simi Fischa developed end-to-end DLMS smart meter support for the esphome/esphome repository, enabling seamless integration of DLMS/COSEM-compliant meters into the ESPHome framework. Leveraging C++ and Python, Simi engineered a new component that allows users to monitor energy consumption with minimal configuration. To complement the technical implementation, Simi authored comprehensive setup and configuration documentation in the esphome/esphome-docs repository, streamlining the onboarding process for users. The work demonstrated strong embedded systems and IoT development skills, with careful attention to documentation quality and cross-repository collaboration. No bugs were recorded, reflecting a focused and well-executed engineering effort.
