I have started my carrier as a PhD student (November 2021-till date) in Department of Network Engineering under the guidance of Mónica Aguilar Igartua with topic related to Platooning of Vehicles.
I have completed my Bachelor degree (B.Tech) in Mechanical Engineering from Jawaherlal Nehru Technological University - Kakinada, 2014 and Masters degree (M.Tech) in Automotive Engineering from Amrita University - Coimbatore, 2016.
Currently, Working as a Specialist - Simulation Engineer for scenario development for Autonomous Vehicles in ZF - TCI India Pvt. Ltd. with an overall experience of nine years working on various projects related to real world scenario generation, traffic simulations, SIL, model integration, ADAS and co-simulation.
Previously, I have worked on Omnitracs + SmartDrive Systems India Private Limited as Simulation Engineer. Developed road network and scenarios of real time edge case using MSC Virtual Test Drive (VTD). Working on different geo location positioning based on requirement. Working with simulators like MathWorks RoadRunner, JOSM, NVIDIA DriveSim for generating road network and scenarios. Working on quality parameters. Hands-on with ESmini player to understand the open scenario concepts.
I have worked with SmartDrive Systems India Private Limited as Associate Simulation Engineer. I was focusing on design and development of road network and scenario for Autonomous Vehicles with multiple approaches that creates a virtual environment with actual Geo-location. Development of custom maps using Open Street Map.
