Senior Systems Hardware Engineer, Analog Devices | June 2023 - Present
Systems Hardware Engineer Intern, Analog Devices | May - August 2022
Debugged hardware issues in the ADI watch,leading to a new hardware rev that reduced current consumption by 20%.
Developed battery measurement test script in Python and automated lab equipment for power analysis of ADI Vital Sign Monitoring watch which reduced test time for new PCBs by about 30%.
Reduced test time by 20% by changing the hardware setup and automating power measurements and logging.
Worked on healthcare hardware including heart-rate monitor, ECG sensor, body core temperature, etc.
Built battery tracking prototype hardware (Sensors, Microcontroller and Power Circuit), designed PCB, developed firmware in C and tested code for reliability (I2C, UART).
Collaborated with the software and back-end teams to develop APIs and DB schema for IoT applications enabling easy data transfer between HW and SW.
Worked as electronics intern under a professor in Physics department.
Designed Analog electronic circuits, simulated them in TinaTI, Matlab and successfully built the circuit using industry standard components.
Researched about different methods of synchronizations in micro girds.
Concentrated on PLL based synchronization and design for micro grids and prepared a research report.
