What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster innovation, collaboration, and professional growth in the semiconductor industry.

I am an Electronics Engineer with a focused expertise in VLSI Power Analysis and SoC Signoff, currently working as a PrimePower Signo Engineer at Synopsys Inc. My specialization lies in advanced power estimation validation techniques across Synopsys’ power tool suite, including PrimePower, WAP, and Empower. I have demonstrated my skills in cycle-accurate waveform analysis, distributed computing, and thermal profile density mapping for top-tier semiconductor clients such as Samsung.

Throughout my career, I have shown a strong aptitude for automation, parallelism, and performance optimization using Python and C++. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the University of Nottingham, where I developed a multi-class classification pipeline and designed real-time satellite segmentation models using TensorFlow and Keras. I am passionate about leveraging my technical skills to drive innovation and efficiency in the semiconductor industry.
