Employment

Software Engineer

Texas Instruments, Bangalore, India

  • Mflash
    • Continued the previous work and extended the support for Linux systems, increasing the baud rate to max. and several other improvements
  • GPU less 3D Surround View
    • Added support for lz4 compression of look-up table to reduce the non-volatile memeory requirement significantly. Suggested and implemented multiple improvements to the current algorithm implementation for a much emmersive output
  • Safety Features on SoC
    • Demonstrated the safety usecase which involves usage of safety units such as MMU, MPU, Firewall, etc. to enable memory protection on multiple core such as A53, A72, R5F, C7x, etc.
