## About

```text
At Expleo Solution's, I lead DO-178C Level A verification activities for Airbus H225 helicopter avionics systems. I author and execute HSIT and integration test cases, review SDDs, and support system-level verification closure.

At Collins Aerospace, I developed test cases and procedures and worked across avionics, unit, HSIT, system integration, and black-box testing. I used JAMA, JIRA, IBM-DOORS, SVN, Tortoise SVN, VISTA, and PREP for testing and review work.

Earlier, I worked on rail and aerospace systems at Quest Global, HCL Technologies, and Aviohelitronics Info Systems Pvt. Ltd. My project work included HSIT for train devices, DO-178B-compliant testing, and development and testing for the RUSTOM-2 UAV's MPC software.
