Specializing in embedded hardware and software, my academic journey at Vellore Institute of Technology involved a pivotal role in the formula student community, particularly with TEAM OJAS, spanning three years. Engaged in developing a formula student class electric vehicle, I contributed across various departments, strategically focusing on embedded electronics, PCB and circuit design, debugging, embedded coding, and electrical hardware/software integration for vehicle DAQ, fault diagnostics, start up sequences and throttle control.
Beyond academia, my experience includes a three-year stint as a program manager for a commercial E-bike startup, specializing in the vehicle’s battery management system. This role involved high-voltage PCB design, accounting for thermal, vibration, and EMI considerations in the EV environment. My expertise extended to 4-6 layered PCBs, ensuring the robust management and safeguarding of lithium-ion battery packs.
My project approach is grounded in simplicity: analyze the problem, identify the product's application, explore existing solutions, and develop cost-efficient implementation ideas. I create mock-up designs considering form factor, environment, and customer preferences.
In summary, I bring a wealth of experience in embedded systems, PCB design, and project management. I am eager to contribute to challenging projects, leveraging my skills in innovation, problem-solving, and efficient design, while continuing to enhance my capabilities.
