About
I am a technical engineering and systems leader with a diverse experience in managing high performing teams for successful business units in telecom and semiconductor companies across many functional areas including software, firmware, hardware and systems. I work with customers and product engineering to create new solutions, with hardware, firmware and software. As a manager, love mentoring and feel good when I can help someone achieve their goals. I have led high performing teams of engineers and marketing professionals to deliver products like 3G and LTE protocol stack, Integrated development environment and development kits for wireless and micro-controller semiconductor products at firmware, software and solution level. In my 25+ years of industry association, I have explored new domains and functional areas and I get very excited to deal with changes, challenges and problems. My view in professional and personal life is that a Problem has only two outcomes – either it is solved or it is not a problem!
