Qualcomm India Pvt. Ltd.

November 2021 - Present

Senior Engineer, Linux Telephony Software team

• Promoted to Senior Engineer as a result of my excellent contributions and enhancements in Android Telephony and other embedded platforms.

July 2020 - Oct 2021

Engineer, Linux Telephony Software team

• Switched to Linux Telephony SW team from Modem Systems Test team and worked on different features for decreasing the battery usage while enhancing application performance on ThreadX RTOS and LE(Linux Embedded) platforms in C/C++.
• As part of this worked on PSM(Power Saving Mode) functionality in Tx and LE platforms supporting features such as AP only boot, narrow-band IoT features on PSM etc.
• Had widespread impact with customers such as BMW, LG, QuecTel, Telit, u-blox, and SIMCOM using these features.
• Refactored and modularized the existing QCRIL architecture and implemented advanced 5G features in Android Telephony framework in Java, well before competitors could implement it and thus provided an edge to Qualcomm to market the chipset to OEM's.
