Jan 2004 – Sep 2008 · 4 yrs 8 mos

I started with Linux driver development OMAP and worked on Audio, NOR, I2C and number of other drivers on 2.4, 2.6 kernels till July 2006 after which I transitioned to team working to create board validation s/w for SDPs. This is a completely different challenge due to the lack of OS and highly volatile requirements.
