I am an radio frequency (RF) engineer wandering across the pale blue dot constantly in search of the next interesting opportunity to learn. RF engineering builds systems that transmit and receive [radio waves](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_wave). I have a specialization in signal processing as building such systems requires a broad understanding across analog (Oscillators, mixers, amplifier, etc.) and digital (Microprocessors, DSP accelerators, etc.) domains. + +This page gives you an overview of my professional qualifications.

I also can work through physics focusing on electromagnetism. I have a basic understanding of how to write good software and I am well versed in python and MATLAB development. I have some experience in C programming to accelerate algorithms using DSP processors. I have worked with FPGAs in the past using VHDL for prototyping but require time to refresh my skills. I aim to upskill on circuit design as well.

Web development helps me create tools that can be shared across a wider audience such a team in my organization. I would like to learn Erlang for concurrent applications and OCaml for functional programming in the future. My Alma mater includes [Amrita University](https://www.amrita.edu/) and [TU Delft](https://microelectronics.tudelft.nl/Education/bio.php?id=1176) from where I got my bachelor's and master's degrees in electrical engineer respectively. During my studies I have specialized in signal processing with a strong background in linear algebra, probability and statistics. I have taken up courses in Antenna Systems, Electromagnetism, Communication Theory, Remote Sensing and many more.

I believe in striving to push the boundaries of science as described wonderfully by [Matt Might](https://matt.might.net/articles/phd-school-in-pictures). But this push is matched by the need to innovate for a better future in more tangible way. I am always looking for new avenues to learn and grow in all aspect of life. |
