Embedded engineer. Edge AI practitioner.

I am currently a Debug Engineer Intern at Jabil in my final semester of B.Tech Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering. My internship is focused on PCB-level fault isolation, power rail analysis, and root cause analysis on production assemblies across SMT and functional test stages.

On the firmware side, I write and debug Embedded C/C++ on ARM7 (LPC2148), STM32, and ESP8266 targets. I apply FreeRTOS concepts — task scheduling, queue-based inter-task communication, and binary semaphores — in system designs.

My Edge AI work is deployment-focused, not theoretical. I train lightweight classification models, convert them to TensorFlow Lite, and run inference on microcontroller-class hardware under real latency and memory constraints. I integrate AI inference engines with physical actuators through UART/serial pipelines.

I develop on Linux, use Git for version control, and build IoT data pipelines with MQTT, Firebase, and Python automation. My experience spans the full stack from bare-metal firmware to cloud dashboards.
