Work History
Design Engineer
ARM Embedded Technologies
Bangalore
01.2023 - Current
- Worked on the Cortex-R82AE, a software-based built-in self-test library that will be used to fault-grade the logic in the processor.
- Worked on the main STL(Software Test Library) function, which includes the scheduler and all subroutines.
- Worked on the STL scheduler API for User Interface at Run Time.
- Ensured compliance with MISRA C:2012 coding standards, static analysis (LINT), in safety-critical modules, as part of the STL (Software Test Library) project for Arm A/R-class processors.
- Worked as part of the design team on debugging and fixing bugs in complex CPU blocks, focusing on functional correctness and performance. I utilized industry-standard tools like VCS, Verdi, for RTL debug.
Graduate Engineer,
- Contributed to development and validation of ARM Cortex-A720 AE processor platform for Software Test Library.
- Developed SBIST controller code, achieving high fault coverage in mission-critical applications.
- Designed and validated RAS register checks for effective error capture using Trace and Fault Processor.
- Implemented Jenkins-based regression flow for automated design verification and continuous integration.
- Created Memory Protection Unit(MPU) test cases for comprehensive Software Test Library validation.

Projects
Simulation studies on current-voltage characteristics of BaTiO3-based NCFET
NCFET integrates a ferroelectric layer inside the gate stack of a transistor, which acts as a negative capacitance, allowing the transistor to overcome the fundamental limitation of sub-threshold swing of 60 mV at room temperature.
Designing a processor with Verilog HDL and Xilinx Vivado
discusses the fundamentals required to build a simple processor/CPU with Verilog HDL and strategies to test its functionality to understand all the necessary skills required to build complex CPU architecture.
Design and Implementation of Sample and Hold Circuit in 180nm CMOS Technology
Sample and hold circuit is usually used with an analog to digital converter to sample the input analog signal and hold the sampled signal.
Real-time fuel monitoring system using a load cell
we have proposed the idea to measure fuel using a load cell to measure weight and read by an HX711 analog-to-digital converter fetched by the Arduino running on an Atmega 32 displayed on the LCD and stored on the cloud using an ESP8266.
