About

As a recent graduate in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Vivekananda College of Engineering and Technology, I am passionate about exploring the world of VLSI and embedded technologies. With a strong foundation in both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, I am eager to dive into the fast-paced world of chip design. With a curious and inquisitive mind, I am committed to staying updated with the latest advancements in the tech industry. I am always eager to learn new skills and expand my knowledge base. My proficiency in languages such as C/C++, Python scripting, Verilog HDL, and System Verilog, along with my experience in developer tools like Xilinx Vivado and ISE, make me a valuable asset in any VLSI or embedded systems team. My proficiency in software like Linux, Icarus-Verilog, and GTKWave, coupled with my knowledge of open-source tools like Ngspice, Magic, and Netgen, enables me to tackle complex challenges with ease. Additionally, my soft skills in communication and teamwork, along with my ability to adapt and learn quickly, make me a team player extraordinaire. I am well-versed in various technologies, including analog and digital systems, embedded systems, Very Large-Scale Integrated Circuits, CMOS schematic and layout design.

Worked on System-on-Chip (SoC) design using SkyWater 130 nm PDK.
Executed RTL-to-GDSII flow using OpenLane: RTL synthesis (Yosys), floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis, and routing (OpenROAD).
Performed Static Timing Analysis (STA), DRC/LVS checks (Magic & Netgen), and resolved antenna violations.
Extracted layouts to SPICE and simulated an inverter using Ngspice to measure rise/fall transition times and propagation delays.
Documented the full workflow in a GitHub repository
for reproducibility.
Gained hands-on expertise in ASIC physical design, SoC planning, and open-source VLSI workflows.
