Experience

1. Hardware Enabling Engineer

   Intel

   Oct 2021 — Present · Bengaluru, IN

   Expertly led the architectural design and optimization of complex Power Delivery Networks (PDNs) for high-performance x86 platforms, utilizing 15W–45W DC-DC converter topologies (linear and switching) and charger ICs (65W–100W), resulting in 5–10% cost reductions across 15+ designs annually.•Efficiently executed schematic development using OrCAD and Concept HDL and conducted complex, high-density PCB layout reviews in Cadence Allegro, driving robust PDN stability through advanced PI simulations (Fast PI).•Thoroughly managed the complete hardware product lifecycle from power supply design and power sequencing to high-speed interface implementation (PCIe Gen4/Gen5, USB 3.x/Type-C with PD, DDR5/LPDDR5/LPCAMM2) mitigating early-phase design risks for N and N+1 platforms.•Seamlessly facilitated system-level integration of high-speed and low-speed interfaces, including DDR, PCIe, USB, Ethernet, DisplayPort, HDMI, camera, I2C, SPI and UART, ensuring robust and scalable x86 platform functionality.•Conducted signal and power integrity simulations using Aurora-Fast PI and Intel IPDS, optimizing layout and performance validation, while leveraging oscilloscopes and Logic Analyzer (LA300) for in-depth debugging and validation.•Proactively collaborated with global cross-functional teams (BIOS, Mechanical, Thermal, Layout, Validation) to accelerate design closure and achieve on-time, zero-rework customer power-on milestones.•Effectively delivered high-impact technical documentation including application notes, design guides and reference schematics.•Proficiently provided direct design review and support to key clients, enhancing their ability to integrate essential interfaces and power strategies, while solving critical entry/education-segment platform challenges.•Mentored engineers, driving design innovation and executing architectural trade-off analyses to optimize performance, cost and system efficiency. Adeptly handled supplier and customer escalations too.
