Summary

PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

PhD-qualified expert in Electronics System Design with deep expertise in embedded systems, IoT, and robotics. I co-founded an agritech startup where I led the development of sensor-based IoT solutions that helped farmers significantly increase crop yields. Five years ago, I transitioned from the startup to a full-time industry role, where I have since been focused on designing and developing advanced technologies such as edge-computing-based IIoT devices, smart cameras, robotics systems, GMSL camera integration, and indigenous drone components. I bring a strong innovation mindset, hands-on technical leadership, and a passion for building impactful embedded and intelligent systems.
