My work focuses on developing intelligent and scalable technologies that address real world challenges in space, defense, energy, robotics, and human machine collaboration. Driven by hands on expertise, I have secured offers for full time technical, leadership and managerial roles across "Defense/Space, Telecommunications, Materials, Industrial automation (Logistics, Warehousing, and Agriculture), and Software (Machine Learning & Computer Vision)", domains and sponsored positions in India, UK & Germany (2021-2025, with a collective offer valuations of 320K USD, did not pursue every offer).
I follow my personal 6P principle (Projects -> Prototypes -> Presentations -> Products -> Publications -> Patents) to cover the complete spectrum of innovation and research.
Interested in collaborating with me? Kindly contact me.
