Profile

Dual-degree student (B.Tech EEE, Amrita; B.S. Data Science, IIT Madras) focused on hardware-aware edge AI and RTL design/verification. Deployed INT8 vision transformers on AMD Versal (sub-100 ms) at ADRIN / ISRO and designed a 64×64 systolic-array BNN accelerator (374.5 GOP/s, 92.8 GOP/s/W). National finalist, SIH 2025; winner at IEEE GRSS and MunichTech EXPO 2026 hackathons.

Experience & Research

Edge AI Research Intern
ADRIN — NRSC, ISRO · Hyderabad
May – Jun 2026

Deployed an INT8-quantized MobileViTv2-XS vision transformer on the AMD Versal VCK190 (Vitis AI / HLS / Vivado) for onboard Earth-observation inference; ran latency/throughput/utilization trade-offs across Versal and Zynq.

AI-ML Engineering Intern
Wipro · Bengaluru
May – Jul 2025

Built a production spam/ham text classifier (TF-IDF → Random Forest with a logistic-regression meta-classifier) for high-volume enterprise streams, then re-architected the real-time inference pipeline with batching and vectorized preprocessing.

2025 – present

Twelve agents that generate a testbench, run the design against a golden ISS, diff the two commit logs instruction by instruction, analyse coverage, and write new tests aimed at what the campaign hasn't reached. Underneath sits VOE — a frozen kernel where a “verified” claim can't exist without a re-checkable witness, every policy pre-registered in an append-only ledger.
