What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build biomedical R&D solutions that translate research into validated hardware, while expanding my work across embedded systems, clinical applications, and AI-enabled technical problem-solving.

I'm a biomedical engineer who takes problems from published literature through design specifications to working, validated hardware. Now currently working at an early stage medical device company “Backyard Creators Private Limited” building extracranial magnetic stimulation hearing device (Non-invasive bionic ear) and Neuronavigation systems.

My biomedical work spans on cochlear implant signal analysis, embedded systems for signal generation, clinical-trial planning, auditory electrophysiology, Audiology tests, neuro-navigation, and magnetic neuromodulation. I created an optical tracking subsystem end to end - 6 DOF ArUco marker/OpenCV pipeline for systematic tracking of our device against the target site that is located deep inside our head. Also I learned ISO 13485 Quality management system internal auditor training to ensure proper technical workflow during development stage.

I'm an AI enthusiast who customises tools such as Claude to reduce physical and technical workload, leaving more room for higher-level problem-solving by building agent that can act as my personal assistant with the persona of a researcher working in a leading audiological research institutions. I enjoy tinkering beyond my core domain and love to learn multiple topics which can be helpful for me to translate the idea into my domain.
