Created a SystemVerilog UVM hardware emulation ( Palladium Z2) testbench for IP-level verification of the complex RTL of an in-house Timer Counter Pulse Width Modulation (TCPWM) design Integrated AHB Accelerated Verification IP (AHB AVIP) provides a connection to the DUT in the emulation, while the master agent of the testbench remains in simulation(Xcelium) formaximum visibility of internal signals The pairwise testing technique is employed to generate the configurations of input parameters

(DLTs) used in production testing of firmware of NVM flash memory models, ensuring accurate register model checks and NVM model manipulation Utilized SystemVerilog, UVM methodology, Cadence Xcelium, and Indago to perform digital functional verification and debug complex hardware simulations cross-collaboration with different teams while interpreting specifications from Enterprise Architect (UML) to create reliable verification test cases, improving DLT reliability

Development of Formal Verification methodology for Firmware drivers verification and Hypervisors using Bounded Model Checker for C and C++ (CBMC) for an Automotive microcontroller Developed and managed Python scripts and Makefiles to automate processes and streamline workflows, resulting in increased efficiency, productivity, and code quality Achieved a significant 50% increase in code coverage metrics, ensuring more comprehensive testing and validation of code

Developed expertise in programming control software using NI LABVIEW for Precision Electro-Chemical (PECM) machining applications Interacted with various tools, including DAQ devices, Source generators, Multimeters, and NI MID-7604 stepper motor drives, to control and precision-engineer axis movements

Automated testing workflows using Behavior Driven Development principles (Selenium + Cucumber) achieving a 98% regression pass rate on production environments Executed functional tests using Jenkins on BrowserStack for production web applications
