Sr. R & D Engineer I at Synopsys, May 2013 - Jun 2016 · 3 yrs 2 mos, Bengaluru Area, India, I was part of PrimeTime R&D team. PrimeTime is the trusted signoff solution for timing, signal integrity, power and variation-aware analysis. While working on the projects, I have 1. implemented algorithmic optimizations for runtime improvement. 2. impemented multi-threaded algorithms.

R & D Engineer II at Synopsys, Jan 2012 - May 2013 · 1 yr 5 mos, Banglore, India, I was part of Synphony model compiler (SMC) IP development team. SMC is a high level synthesis tool that synthesizes Simulink based IPs for ASIC and FPGA platforms. As a team member, I am responsible for the development, QA and productization of FIR (finite-impulse response) filter IP. My role includes 1) Development, enhancement and validation (QA) of new and existing features. 2) Measure quality of results (QoR) (area and timing number) on FPGA platforms. 3) Design modification to improve QoR numbers.

Project Officer at Nanyang Technological University, Jan 2009 - Dec 2011 · 3 yrs, Singapore, Design, analysis and implementation of DSP algorithms for audio processing on floating- point and fixed-point digital signal processing (DSP) processors. I worked on 2 projects: 1) Audio beam system (ABS): for generating directional sound. It used several proprietary modulation schemes in the pre-processing step to reduce distortion. It also used several audio processing algorithms in conjunction with ABS (dynamic range controller, virtual bass system) to enhance the listening experience. 2) Immersive 3D Audio (I3DA): combines directional loudspeakers with conventional loudspeakers to create a highly immersive audio experience. The spatial cues are extracted and projected through ABS whereas the ambiance signal is fed to conventional loudspeakers. My role included: a) Simulating algorithms on MATLAB. b) Implementing algorithms on Texas Instruments (TIs) floating-point (C67x series) and fixed-point (C55x series) DSPs. b) Validating implemented algorithms against MATLAB simulated golden output. d) Benchmarking MIPs and memory results. e) Code optimization.
