Work Experience

Tech Lead at ZF Technology Center, Hyderabad, India

September, 2018 - Present

Design and develop infrastructure and integrate, implement and test Simulation in Loop systems.

Gathered requirements from client and wrote corresponding requirements for SiL usecase.
Using C/C++, I have implemented Simulation counter parts for the hardware components (ex. camera).
Using Socket Communication protocols (TCP and UDP), implemented applications using C/C++ that can send and receive large amounts of data (image, audio, sensor signals).
Implemented a way to load and unload sensor and actuator modules during runtime in an application developed using C/C++. This led to reduction of time to build and test the modules on SiL infrastructure.
Implemented multiple tools using Python to improve the products of our BU.

Implemented CI/CD pipelines in both Jenkins and Azure environments.
Developed Jenkins Shared Libraries that will be used in CI/CD pipelines to reuse code and reduce code duplication.
Implemented code generators in python to convert files from other formats to C++ classes (for ex. YAML files, Jinja templates)
Encouraged the use of C/C++ package management tool called Conan(https://conan.io) in our organization to make application development for different OSs and architectures simpler and error free.
Trained and continue to support colleagues from various other teams in python development and C/C++ package management using Conan and CMake.
Developed an eclipse plugin for Conan and also an automating script that makes it easier for anyone to use Conan without actually needing to learn Conan.

Embedded Software Design Engineer at ASML, Eindhoven, The Netherlands

November, 2016 - August, 2018

Design and develop software for Immersion hood part of the Lithographic systems of ASML.

Gathered client requirements for the Immersion Hood.
Developed embedded software libraries using C/C++.
Learnt about different software development standards followed in open source code and ASML's own standards and conformed my development to these standards.
Using python and GTest unittest framework, implemented unit tests and improved test software coverage for legacy code and also any new development done.

Graduate Researcher at Oce Technologies (A Canon Company), Venlo, The Netherlands

January, 2016 - August, 2016

The printers developed by Oce are large scale printers and are productive when printing large number of sheets such as books, pamphlets, etc. In the Research and Development part of Oce, work is done to improve the printer quality while reducing per print cost of a print job.

Researched available literature on schedulers and experimented with new ideas to improve the scheduling algorithm's performance.
I have modeled, implemented these improvements and analyzed which model improves performance of the scheduler the most using Pareto graphs.
Scheduler's execution time depends on how many sheets need to be scheduled. Compared to the scheduler that was already being used in production, my implementation produced schedules almost 12x faster.
I have experimented using OpenMP and CUDA to improve the performance.
I have modified the scheduler's algorithm to use it as an "on-line scheduler" with quality of schedules changing by only +/-10%.
My work and research for this thesis has contributed to my mentor's Ph.D and also a patent has been filed for this scheduler algorithm at the European Patent Office.

Projects

Internship at Net.Orange

June, 2011 – March, 2012

Learnt various technologies used in developing clinical Operating System (cOS) and worked on internal projects.

LogAnalyzer: Is an interesting internal project I was a part of. The cOS generated huge sized log files on the production system. To make it easy for the developers to go through the log, we developed a system that analyzes log files and indexes them using Apache Lucene. Using the index, the developers were able to search the logs.

Achievements: Selected as the best intern for that year.

Summer Internship in Google Summer of Code

April, 2010 – August, 2010

Participated in Google’s annual summer internship program, Google Summer of Code in 2010 and contributed to MiFOS (Micro Finance Open Source) application using FreeMarker and Spring MVC.

Achievements: Awarded 5000 USD for the internship and college fee waiver for the last two years of my Bachelors at KMIT.
