## About

FPGA Engineer experienced in building high\-performance digital pipelines on Xilinx UltraScale\+ RFSoC platforms\. I design and optimize PHY\-layer IPs \(OFDM, PDCCH, PUCCH\) using Vivado HLS and Verilog, with strong focus on timing closure, fixed\-point modeling, DSP/BRAM usage, and AXI\-based subsystem integration\. Hands\-on with system\-level validation—simulation, wired testing, OTA evaluation, BLER measurements, and deep debug using ILA/ChipScope\. Skilled at resolving AXI stalls, FIFO overflows, frame misalignment, and CRC issues across complex HW–SW boundaries\. Previously trained in RTL & UVM at Maven Silicon, with experience building reusable IP and verification environments for AXI, AHB, APB, and SPI\. I enjoy solving timing\-critical design problems, debugging complex systems, and developing clean, production\-ready FPGA solutions\.
