Software Design Engineer – Microsoft Corporation
Highly motivated software engineer with over more than 7 years of experience in IT industry. I am passionate about coding and have been part of different stages of software development lifecycle. I am currently working as a vendor for Microsoft in Windows Embedded automotive group. A large part of my job is design, development of new features and maintenance of auto stack software of next Gen In-vehicle infotainment system. Before Microsoft I was working on firmware development for GSM/CDMA based wireless modules/ routers, where I designed and implemented new GSM compliant features. In the course of my work, I have developed a strong experience on dealing with large-scale code base, hands-on and systematic debugging and deep insights on choosing the best solution for customer interests.
