Career

Power electronics to industrial vision to medical devices to automotive AI — each move added a layer rather than replacing one.

Industrial chiller design & simulation platform

Oct 2025 — Mar 2026
Self-directed · Industrial HVAC

Six months building the engineering tool for a grain-cooling chiller line: vapour-compression cycle modelling against real refrigerant property data, psychrometric and load calculations, compressor and heat-exchanger selection, and the sizing reports an engineer has to sign. Shipped as a web platform with a native mobile client for use on site.

Technical Lead

2022 — Aug 2024
PathPartner Technologies Pvt Ltd · Automotive

Led development of AI-driven ADAS features — surround-view 3D visualization, obstacle rendering and an in-cabin natural-language voice interface — on Renesas R-Car hardware. Owned performance across the CUDA, OpenGL ES and machine-learning boundary, plus technical direction and mentoring for the feature team.

Engineering Contributor — CUDA-EVAL

Jul 2024 — Aug 2025
Turing · Frontier AI research acceleration · concurrent engagement

Designed and reviewed GPU-programming evaluation tasks used to train and benchmark frontier language models. Authored problem statements with explicit inputs, constraints and objective acceptance criteria, produced validated reference solutions, and peer-reviewed other engineers' submissions for technical correctness and completeness.

Senior Software Engineer

2015 — 2022
Appasamy Associates Pvt Ltd · Medical devices

Pioneered the company's OCT imaging analysis platform: GPU-accelerated deep learning for retinal layer segmentation, real-time 3D reconstruction in OpenGL, and the Qt clinical application clinicians used day to day. Included two international onsite engagements.

Embedded Engineer

2012 — 2015
Mirror Technologies Pvt Ltd · Industrial automation & robotics

Machine-vision inspection systems, industrial control integration and robotics — currency authentication, oil-seal inspection, a 600 kg material-handling robot and a bipedal radiation-survey robot for nuclear plant use.

Robotics Development & Training

2010 — 2012
HobbyRobots · Robotics & technical education

Designed and built domestic and industrial robots, and ran the technical training side of the business alongside it — robotics courses, seminars and hands-on workshops. The full build path stayed in house: schematic design, PCB layout and etching, assembly and bring-up, so trainees followed a board from drawing to working hardware rather than starting from a kit.

Design Engineer

2008 — 2010
PS Electricals Pvt Ltd · Power equipment

Designed power, earthing and distribution transformers and reactors to customer spec up to 5 MVA / 33 kV — winding and core-cutting instructions, oil and cooling calculations, radiator and conservator selection, bills of material, and the AutoCAD drawings production built from, to IS and BS standards.

International onsite engagements

Mabri Vision GmbH

Aachen, Germany · Apr 2018

Built a real-time imaging pipeline end to end — capture, process, render, display — with CUDA processing in the capture engine, image registration in OpenCV/C++, and layer segmentation in MATLAB.

e-Vision Optics

Sarasota, Florida, USA · Dec 2018

Designed MATLAB and C++ tooling for a medical imaging system to identify and characterise imaging parameters.

02 — Education

Formal grounding

Electrical engineering first, embedded systems second — which is why the hardware side never feels like someone else's problem.
