What I'm looking for

I am seeking R&D or leadership roles in semiconductor/MEMS device development and fab projects where I can lead device commercialization, manage funding proposals, and collaborate with industry to scale indigenous technologies.

I am a semiconductor researcher and Associate–Technology at the India Semiconductor Mission (MeitY), specializing in MEMS, acoustic resonators and RF devices.

I have authored multiple peer-reviewed journal articles, hold an Indian patent on a tunable Bulk Acoustic Wave resonator, pioneered BAW resonator fabrication and developed ZnO-based MEMS acoustic sensors flight-tested on 12 PSLV launches; I have received Best Poster awards and maintain an active publication record.

In my current role I manage semiconductor fab projects, evaluate technical proposals, facilitate funding and reimbursements, and coordinate with industry, government and stakeholders to strengthen India’s semiconductor ecosystem and advance device commercialization.
