M.Tech VLSI Design @ Amrita
VLSI Design Engineer
RTL Design & Verification
Analog/Mixed-Signal IC Design
I am an Electronics & Communication graduate, now pursuing an M.Tech in VLSI Design at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham. I work across the silicon stack — from RTL that verifies cleanly, to custom layouts that pass DRC/LVS, to device simulation I can trust.
Digital: Verilog/SystemVerilog RTL design with self-checking testbenches and waveform verification in QuestaSim/ModelSim — flip-flop families, counters, and an ALU, every one verified rather than just simulated. Analog/Custom: schematic capture, layout, DRC/LVS, parasitic extraction and post-layout simulation in Cadence Virtuoso. Device/TCAD: semiconductor device simulation in Synopsys Sentaurus across a material-engineered PN diode study and photodiodes in Si, Ge, GaAs and 4H-SiC.
The part of IC design most people skip is verification — it is the part that catches real bugs, and it is what I obsess over. I also mentor RTL and firmware workshops with the IEEE SSCS Student Branch.
IEEE SSCS Student Branch · Part-time
Mentor hands-on RTL, firmware, and electronics-simulation workshops for the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society student branch — including sessions on Verilog, embedded design, and simulation tooling.
IEEE Student Branch, Sree Buddha College of Engineering
Coordinate technical events, workshops, and community initiatives for the IEEE student branch. Manage official communications, documentation, and collaboration across committees.
Nuke Labs · Kochi, Kerala
Own hardware architecture → firmware → bring-up for robotics, IoT and UAV systems at Nuke Labs. Full-time previously, part-time now while pursuing an M.Tech in VLSI Design.
Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya, Chennithala
Mentor school students in robotics, IoT, and design thinking through hands-on innovation sessions at the Atal Tinkering Lab, guiding them in building prototypes and problem-solving projects.
IEEE Student Branch, Sree Buddha College of Engineering
Organized and managed technical programs, workshops, and student engagement activities while coordinating with IEEE members and external speakers.
