Electronics & Communication Engineering student at Bannari Amman Institute of Technology, and increasingly a Linux user who'd rather read the source than file a ticket. I lead Team 404 (with Dinesh & Pratiksha), building systems from LoRa mesh networks for rural connectivity to LEO satellite positioning receivers — on open toolchains: Linux, KiCad, and open SDR drivers instead of vendor lock-in. I send fixes upstream when I hit them, not just forks when I need them, and I'm looking for research roles at DRDO, ISRO, and NIT Trichy where that habit is useful.
