## Work Experience
### Embedded Software Engineer @ Abbott
Jan 2024 – Present | Alameda, California, United States

### Software Engineer-Embedded @ SafeAI, Inc.
Jan 2022 – Jan 2024 | California, United States

### Senior Software Engineer @ Machfu Inc.
Jan 2020 – Jan 2022 | Germantown, Maryland area
Co-ordinated with clients and field engineers to oversee installations of a monitoring solution in the Oil & Gas field.
Worked closely on building a test fixture and implemented various test cases as part of factory production.
Designed and implemented a robust OTA functionality along with an advanced feature of partial OTA.
Accomplished validating the LoRa module software required for certifying Machfu product from the LoRa Alliance.
Designed and developed a proprietary communication protocol that communicated between the micro-controller and an Android OS based device using UART.
Implemented a proprietary BLE advertising scheme that was encoded with information related to configuration of IOT device.

### Embedded Software Engineer @ Machfu Inc.
Jan 2018 – Jan 2020 | United States
Successfully integrated varied sensors like pressure, temperature, ultrasonic, hall effect, pulse counter etc. to an IOT device that communicates back different real time parameters and is purposed to be used in the Oil & Gas Industry.
Accomplished integrating different I/O modules to a micro-controller like battery gas gauge, ADC, external watchdog, reed switch etc.
Worked on multiple LoRa sensors and integrated LoRa module to the microcontroller and integrated LoRa Packet forwarder to the Machfu Gateway.
Worked on developing and enhancing an Android application to integrate different BLE sensors and to add additional functionalities and features. One of such functionalities was to collect data over BLE and communicate it to a cloud platform.

### Firmware Engineer Intern @ Vecna
Jan 2017 – Jan 2017 | Greater Boston Area
Contributed in designing and implementing firmware for Vecna Robot RC20 and delivering market ready product.
Expanded RoboClaw architecture for commands between firmware and Raspberry pi and designed hard safety feature based on data collected from various sensors in firmware overriding higher system level commands.
Added IR & IMU sensor device drivers and similar MEMS peripherals.
Calibrated IMU sensors raw values and developed attitude and heading reference system for the robot.
