As a Software Development Engineer at Amazon Web Services (AWS) with over five years of experience, I specialize in designing and implementing large-scale security platforms and services. My work has focused on enhancing network and datacenter security as well as supporting analytics use cases like application observability. Currently, I am contributing to the development of OpenSearch native solutions for SIEM and investigation workflows, leveraging GenAI capabilities.  

With expertise in Python, GenAI frameworks like LangGraph, and extensive experience in cloud platforms such as AWS, I am committed to delivering innovative and scalable solutions. Beyond my role at AWS, I actively contribute to open-source projects, including the OpenSearch Project, highlighting my dedication to collaboration and continuous improvement in the technology ecosystem.

• Built a Quadrotor from scratch using Arduino and analyzed its stability optimization.
• Created a GUI in LabView to control the Quadrotor motion.
• Replicated the Quadrotor behavior in Matlab and could also simulate it in GUI. This helped better tuning of the quadrotor in software.

To make tuning of the PID values easier, we also built a single axis quadrotor where testing of the PID values was done. This helped to tune PID from software instead of testing the PID into the hardware everytime. 

SkillSet: Arduino, Labview, Matlab
