Experience

Suntra MedTech Solutions

Software Engineer I

AUG 2025 - PRESENT

//

Developed production software for embedded Linux medical devices, working across Yocto-based systems, embedded firmware, Linux/Windows applications, and device bring-up from manufacturing through deployment.

//

Built and maintained cloud-connected device services supporting secure telemetry, OTA versioning, remote device management, and operational monitoring using AWS (EC2, S3, Lambda, CloudWatch, Secrets Manager).

//

Owned engineering infrastructure including CI/CD pipelines, Docker development environments, deployment automation, and internal tooling to improve developer productivity and release reliability.

Laboratory of Circuits and Systems (LCAS)

Research Assistant

JAN 2025 - AUG 2025

//

Developed a Python/C ML evaluation pipeline for weight perturbation, data transfer, inference, and results collection across 50 iterations of 100-image MNIST batches, measuring accuracy degradation and identifying a 5.5-percentage-point fixed- versus floating-point baseline gap.

//

Built a reusable TensorFlow-to-FPGA deployment and profiling framework using HLS4ML and Vivado, evaluating networks up to 10,497 parameters across reuse factors and precision settings; identified DSP utilization as the primary scalability bottleneck and reduced usage from 88 blocks to 3 (96.6%).

Report

Sanchez Research Lab

Research Assistant

AUG 2023 - DEC 2024

//

Reengineered a MATLAB-based electrical impedance tomography pipeline as an object-oriented, multithreaded Python application for noninvasive arterial imaging, enabling concurrent acquisition, data processing, visualization, and storage while increasing reconstruction throughput from 4.2 to 50 FPS, a 12x improvement.

//

Engineered a modular, asynchronous Flutter mobile application with a Firebase cloud backend that collected survey responses, images, and geolocation data from 800+ study participants, integrating Authentication, Firestore, and Storage with input validation, upload timeouts, and event logging.

University IT Department

Software Engineering Intern

JAN 2023 - AUG 2023

//

Built a containerized monitoring platform using Python, FastAPI, SQL, and Docker, developing RESTful APIs and automated pipelines to collect and expose Linux virtual-machine health metrics for real-time observability.
