Graphics Software Engineer (Android)• Started and enabled the Android debug team in India, ramped up the team, leading the team technically while working on sightings reported on both Android on Core and Atom platforms.• Built the team by ramping up 4 new team members taking care of technical and tactical needs, providing hands on training to them to debug issues on Android. • Well conversant with Display/DRM subsystem, Hardware composer, surface flinger, Widevine and media stagefright feature implementations and debugging knowledge using internal (Intel specific) and external (Google) tools.

Graphics Software Engineer (Windows)• Developed, enhanced and deployed the Cheetah- graphics logger tool in collaboration with graphics driver development team. Cheetah is a set of debug tools based on Microsoft's ETW logging framework and is used for capturing and analyzing user defined Intel Graphics Display driver debug events. • Written from scratch the test guide for CUI 4.5 (Common User Interface, UI for Intel graphics driver) for Gen 7.5 platform and released the first such test guide document for CUI. This has helped to build the necessary robustness in the test plans of Intel and the multiple customers which in turn helped to improve the quality of Intel graphics products.• Ramped up contingent workers and new team members (6 engineers) on graphics debug on display and media. Managed and technically lead the team of 2 contingent workers to increase the debug productivity of team. • Worked with external customer validation team in identifying the test gaps in Intel’s test plans for display. Helped in understanding and finding the gaps in Intel’s test grid with respect to Lenovo Desktop and NEC desktop test plans. Reviewed the display test cases of HP Desktop, DELL-FoxConn Desktop, Lenovo Mobile, Samsung Desktop, Samsung Mobile, Lenovo PRC desktop, and Sony-FoxConn mobile; provided recommendations for display test plans to educate customers to include more relevant tests to their test matrices.• Worked with Media development team in Santa Clara US on Transcode feature (Media encode) in Gen 6 and Gen7 Gfx HW for 3 months and dispense the trainings to team for the same while supporting customer issues on Transcode henceforth.• Supported Gfx SV team on Pre-Si validation of FDI (Flexible Display Interface, transport bus between GMCH and PCH) in Gen 7. Written and executed the test cases with 98% pass rate. Debugged 2 hardware issues found during validation.

• Worked with Gfx System Validation team for Post Si validation of DP, iHDMI, iHDMI audio and HDCP on Gen 4 graphics chipsets. Written the test cases using ruby language and executed the same. Debugged the Si issues found during validation and supported hardware debug after release as well.• Leveraged the Post Si validation knowledge to debug issues reported by external customers on DP/iHDMI, DP interop issues on various DP dongles, be it a HW or SW issue, for the sightings which allowed on time release of quality graphics drivers to customers. Worked on 10 design issues and suggested the changes in customer design as per Intel’s EDS guidelines after investigating OEM/ODM board schematics.• Well conversant in DP1.1a, DP1.2, eDP1.3, HDMI1.3, HDCP1.1 VESA protocols and various EDID and CEA mode specifications with their implementation/support in Hardware and software of Intel’s graphics chipsets. • Participated in Display Plug-test and identified new usage models for DP inter-op dongles to assert Intel’s readiness in supporting new display models with next generation client mobile and desktop systems on Gen 5• Responsible for working on issues reported by internal and external customers across the geo’s on Intel’s Graphics driver.• Have thorough knowledge of complete driver stack of Intel’s Graphics driver based on Windows XP display driver model (XPDM) and Windows Vista display driver model (WDDM) and interaction between driver components, Operating system (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 Windows8/8.1), underlying graphics chipset hardware and BIOS.

Joined as Rotation Engineer and worked in three different teams under Intel’s Mobility Group for four months each and joined Software Debug and Validation team as final placement. • Ist Rotation: Developed the tool to validate the Video BIOS table (VBT) data using Ruby scripting language and Win32 extension DLL to Automate Validation test suite for Intel’s Graphics Driver. • 2nd Rotation: Ramped up quickly on Intel Graphics driver architecture and various components of Graphics driver with overview of Windows XP driver model in general. Worked on issues reported by internal validation team and external customers on Intel’s Graphics driver. • 3rd Rotation: Worked on the automated validation of User Interface (UI) of IMSM (Intel Matrix Storage Manager); a UI to configure the IMSM driver, using Ruby Scripting language.
