I'm a postdoctoral researcher focusing on the development of a high-sensitivity MEMS/NEMS-based sensor device for gas and biosensor applications. For device fabrication, I have experience with lithography techniques such as E-beam, mask/mask-less UV, and imprint for solar cell and sensor applications. I have extensive clean room (Class 10,000, 1,000, and 100) expertise with PVD, ICP-CVD/RIE, and lithography-based tools, as well as a strong instrumentation background. My doctoral focused on Advanced Micro-Patterned, Narrow Finger Width Front Contact Metallization Schemes for Silicon Solar Cells. I have extensive experience in the fabrication and characterization of silicon and thin-film solar cells, as well as in-house tool development. I designed and built four pilot scale machines. As an interdisciplinary researcher, I've also worked on the development of chemi-resistive type gas sensor devices based on metal oxides, thin films, and other materials. Defect engineered metal oxides and their surface structural improvements in surface reactive sensing platforms for flexible, temperature-independent, and low-power MEMS gas sensors were the focus of the research.
As an experienced Electronic Engineer with a solid foundation in FPGA design, embedded systems, and IoT, I specialize in high-level hardware programming and real-time signal processing. With expertise in RTL, RISC-V, Verilog, SystemVerilog, and VHDL, I bring a robust understanding of digital design to my work. My professional background includes over a decade in the PCBA assembly industry, where I programmed and configured SPI and Chip Mounter machines, managed production processes, and handled CAD and Gerber files for precision assembly. Additionally, I am well-versed in designing and testing complex circuits using tools like Proteus, Fritzing, and Altium, with a particular interest in the emerging role of AI in electronics. As a career coordinator, former educator in electronics, and an active researcher, I blend practical industry experience with a passion for fostering innovation and teaching in the electronics field. My recent projects involve integrating IoT with embedded solutions, exploring the intersection of FPGA technology with real-time applications, and continually expanding my knowledge in artificial intelligence.
