About

Results-driven Silicon Hardware Engineer with 14+ years of experience in Embedded Systems and SoC architecture. My primary focus is on developing and optimizing ARM-based CPU's Active & Low Power features, firmware, and performance, utilizing ARM protocols (UEFI/AOP/ACPI/PSCI/TZ). I am proficient in pre-silicon & post-silicon bring-up and both Hardware (JTAG/Trace) and Software (GDB/WinDbg) debugging. I also have a strong background in Windows Driver development and leading global technical teams.
