I am an Embedded Software Engineer working on defence avionics systems, with hands-on experience in embedded C/C++, Python, and machine learning deployment on resource‑constrained hardware.
My interests lie at the intersection of low‑level systems, signal & image processing, and practical ML engineering.

Languages

• C, C++ (Embedded & low‑level systems)
• Python (ML, automation, data processing)

Embedded & Systems

• Microcontrollers
• RTOS fundamentals
• Memory‑constrained optimization
• Avionics software concepts

Machine Learning & Image Processing

• Classical ML (classification, clustering)
• CNN / CRNN / LSTM
• OpenCV‑based image pipelines
• Edge ML optimization

Tools & Platforms

• Git, GitHub
• Linux
• SQLite
• MATLAB (basic)

Tech: C, BMP I/O, Otsu Thresholding

• Built a complete image preprocessing pipeline in pure C
• Includes resizing, contrast enhancement, binarization, and header‑file generation
• Designed for microcontroller‑friendly deployment

Tech: Python, OpenCV, ML

• Developed a modular image cartoonization system
• Designed for web deployment with future scalability
• Focused on clean architecture and reproducibility

Tech: Kotlin, Java, SQLite

• Android application for offline PDF processing
• Extracts and previews both text and images
• Stores structured output locally using SQLite

Tech: Python, Pandas, Excel, SQLite

• Automated generation and expansion of large structured datasets
• Implemented deterministic splits for ML training/testing
• Optimized workflows for millions of rows

• Studying avionics software standards & theory
• Deploying ML models on edge and embedded platforms
• Building high‑quality open‑source engineering projects
