What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on roles in control, test, and validation within power or aerospace teams where I can apply MATLAB/RTDS skills, drive system integration, and deliver measurable performance improvements.

I am an R&D electrical engineer with hands-on experience in HVDC control strategy development, closed-loop validation, and performance tuning using MATLAB/Simulink, RTDS/RSCAD, and industrial control tools. I have contributed to large-scale projects such as the 1 GW Tyrrhenian Link and performed site acceptance testing and system integration to verify real-world control performance.

My background includes multiple roles at CSIR-National Aerospace Laboratories where I generated test cases from flight data recorders, calibrated and integrated sensors, conducted EMC and dynamic testing, and analyzed strain and vibration data with MATLAB to produce actionable engineering insights and reports.

I am results oriented, adaptable, and focused on delivering reliable, testable solutions. I hold a B.Tech (EEE) and certifications in MATLAB programming and LabVIEW, and I seek opportunities to apply my testing, control, and signal-processing skills to complex power or aerospace systems.
