I am currently working as a designer for Cryo and Earth storable engine components which are the part of CE-20 and L110 engine of GSLV/LVM III launch vehicle.

I am also involved in ISRO's prestigious Gaganyaan mission. My job includes design and development of Engine control components, documenting internal reports and analysis of performance.

• Project completed under the guidance of Dr. Kurien Issac, retired professor from IIST.
• Project was to design a robust control algorithm for trajectory tracking of autonomous underwater vehicle.
• Based on sliding mode control and trajectory correction algorithm we successfully designed the algorithm.
• Control algorithm was tested on virtual simulation of Sparus II AUV underwater using MATLAB.
• Under the different introduced disturbances the algorithm showed its robustness and model followed its desired trajectory with minimum error.

• Worked as a intern in research project guided by Dr. Sam Noble and Dr. Sam Zachariah.
• Aim of the project was to design the actuator to drive the tracked legged humanoid for rescue operations.
• Designed the belt drive mechanism capable of transferring power from motor to belt to move robot forward in different terrains.
