• Architecture definition, design and verification of digital baseband Power Line Communication Modem along with • Architecting and development of low level embedded firmware • Managed hardware and software development in a 20-member team spread across San Jose, Irvine and Dallas• Delivered a first pass silicon to customers

• Conceptualised and executed a novel idea to create a Patchable ROM for the Touch Screen Controller solution. The new process reduced the die cost by 12%. • Lead a team of engineers in bringing the solution to a first pass success

• System verification and test characterisation of multiple interfaces of the first-generation Power Line Communication Modem from Maxim• Built a post Silicon functional evaluation platform that tested the basic functionality of the chip within an hour of silicon arrival. The project was a first fabrication round success and sampled to customers on time

Design and verification of CPU co-processor subsystems for Intel and AMD platforms. These designs were sold in high volume including in the first edition of the MacBook Pro.
