• I worked as a technical lead engineer at Qualcomm, where I was involved in several projects involving pre and post silicon validation of ARM and custom (Nuvia) CPU core and other IPs connected to CPU through ARM AMBA protocols (CHI and AXI).
• As part of the validation we verified functional, and non-functional requirements of CPU cores and subsystem IP in a system context involving all the subcomponents of Qualcomm snapdragon SOC. These SOCs were targetted for next gen mobile and compute platform devices.

• I worked as lead design engineer in designing and implementing hard real-time constrained bare-metal software based on ARM platform for motion control applications of ASML lithography machines.
• As part of the project we resolved the end-of-life issue for the control boards used within ASML by replacing on-chip devices with FPGA implementation, and replacing PowerPC with ARM processors. We redesigned the complete system with redistribution of HW-SW responsibilities. The bare-metal software development based on ARM architecture included assembly coding for startup code, memory management and exception handling.

• I worked on designing and implementing control software for Intel camera pipeline consisting of hardware fixed functions and software imaging kernels. As part of the project, we stitched together various imaging kernels (HW and SW) to form the imaging pipeline.
• I also worked on developing an emulated driver to test the configurable imaging pipelines in the context of imaging drivers.
• I also worked on developing an on-the-fly communication link between different imaging subsystems to have improved performance of the imaging pipeline.

• As a research assistant I worked on offline scheduling algorithm. The offline scheduling algorithm was inherently exponential in complexity, as part of my assignment I was working on smart pruning ways to reduce the time needed to find a feasible offline schedule. The scheduling algorithm was used in the TTEthernet offline scheduling.

• I worked on the AUTOSAR based abstraction layer development for the Electronic control unit [ECU] of the Body control module [BCM]. The real time software developed controlled all the devices on the ECU.
• I also worked closely with the customers for integration of BCM software into the product.
