About

Am back to VLSI design domain with Intel. Setting up the Formal verification team here in Bangalore Development Center. Creating the Siftwallet web app, an app for automatic refunds from hidden credit card benefits Built the SAS product team at a FinTech startup in Bangalore. Architecture definition and setup, team building, MVP definition, development, deployment. Headed the Technology team for assessments division of eLitmus. Conceptualizing, developing and deploying products for customers and having thousands of users on it within weeks keeps the adrenaline going. Add to that the heady mix of customer demands and recruitment challenges for the team. Technologies used: Ruby On Rails, MvSQL, Nginx, MongoDB, NodeJS+Socket.io Founded DSipher Design Solutions in 2008 with the view of democratizing VLSI design using online web platform. Pivoted to E-Learning domain and was eventually acquired by the leading technical assessment player in India. Technologies used: LAMP My past life in the VLSI domain was intellectually challenging but slow and steady. I was lucky to be in Verification which is by far the most happening domain in VLSI. Starting from verilog module level directed testing to System Verilog UVM based constrained random verification of SOCs to Assertion based Formal verification, I was exposed to almost all the evolving methodologies of VLSI verification technologies.
