About Rahul Kumar
Firmware Engineer at Qualcomm with 3+ years of experience in wireless modem firmware (WCDMA and 5G NR) on Hexagon DSP platforms. I specialize in real-time embedded systems, signal processing, and low-level C/assembly development for Qualcomm Snapdragon SoCs.I hold a Master\'s degree in Electrical Engineering from IIT Madras, where I conducted research on massive random access and compressed sensing algorithms. My academic background is deeply rooted in communication systems, estimation theory, and optimization.Currently, I’m exploring the intersection of embedded systems and AI—particularly TinyML and DSP-based ML inference. I’ve implemented end-to-end keyword spotting models on microcontrollers and am upskilling in TensorFlow Lite and PyTorch for edge AI applications. Core strengths:• Modem Firmware (3G/5G), RTOS, DSP (Hexagon)• Embedded C, assembly, Python• Signal processing, channel estimation• AI/ML on embedded platforms (TinyML, TFLM) Always open to discussions in embedded AI, DSP optimization, and opportunities in wireless/ML system design.
