What I'm looking for

I seek roles in semiconductor/IC design or embedded systems where I can apply validation, VLSI flow and TinyML experience, work on low-power SoC solutions, and grow technically within collaborative, innovation-driven teams.

I am a motivated Computer & Communication Systems Engineering graduate with hands-on semiconductor internship experience and Synopsys IC design training.

During an Intel Microelectronics internship I learned validation and testing workflows for IP and SoC components and completed Synopsys modules covering RTL design, functional verification, Design Compiler, ICC2 and timing analysis.

My final year project benchmarked TinyML models on low-power hardware, achieving over 90% accuracy across audio wake-word, anomaly and gesture detection models, and I have implemented a full digital VLSI flow reaching timing closure with strong verification results.

I bring practical skills in Verilog, C++, Java, SoC architecture, embedded systems, VLSI tools, and IoT projects, combined with leadership experience in student organizations and a focus on delivering reliable, low-power semiconductor and embedded solutions.
