Work Experience

Vectech - Mechatronics Engineer

I design and develop precision automation systems to handle mm-scale biological specimens, improving imaging reliability and reducing overlap. I’ve led full-cycle product development — from research and prototyping to deployment — optimizing both hardware and software performance. I also design PCBs for power conversion, communication, and sensor integration, and I built a computer vision setup that cut optical test time and human error by 50%.

Home Aloha - Tech Lead / Founder

I founded a home automation startup where I designed Wi-Fi–enabled smart switches and developed custom firmware integrated with backend systems for seamless remote control. I deployed these smart home solutions across multiple residential properties, improving convenience, connectivity, and energy efficiency.

Leap Robots LLC - Robotics Research Associate

I developed autonomous navigation algorithms using ROS and LIDAR for mobile robots. I also mentored a team of five high school students in robot design and programming, guiding them to win a national robotics competition at IIT Kharagpur.
