Heritage Institute Of Technology

4-bit Arithmetic and Logic Unit Design
February - May '15

We designed and implemented a 4-bit ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) as our 4th year project in college. Worked as a team of 5 to design a digital circuit that performed arithmetic and logical operations using VHDL. The operations were carried out using combinational logic circuits of 4 inputs. The ALU performed operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, left and right shift.

Webtek Labs

Goto App Front End Back End

blogbook

A social blog site where users sign up using google, facebook and are free to post or share ideas, likes and comments on other posts. The site has a special feature where users can post blogs by using HTML tags which let them customize their posts with images, headers, paragraphs, etc.

This is a fullstack application which has been built from scratch using an Angular 4 front end with an Express framework over Node.js REST API connecting to MongoDB. Used Materialize framework which uses Google's Material Design specifications for enhancing the look and feel. It uses login with Google and Facebook and stores encrypted passwords in database for normally signed users using bcrypt.

Achievements

During 5 months of the training period at Infosys, Mysore, I became Top Performer with 93% aggregate and also became the joint topper from a batch of around 2000 employees. I was trained on the following: Python, SQL, .NET technologies like C#, ADO.NET, Entity Framework, ASP.NET MVC 5. The biggest take away from the training period was to grasp the concepts properly such that I could apply them to any technology. This helped me to adapt to new technologies straight away.

I developed an effective automation application using WPF for the client and delivered a zero defect project a few weeks before deadline. During the presentation and demo of the tool I gained appreciation from the Delivery Manager of the client for both the presentation and the tool. Due to this work I was presented an award from Infosys for my valuable efforts.

I collaborated with the technical director of our client to build a reusable wizard component in Angular which forms a major part of their application.

When our client faced issues with paid features for a reusable datatable component, I suggested them to go with PrimeNG library which did not sacrifice the corporate look and feel and was completely free. I have developed reusable datatable components with PrimeNG library for the client. Due to my contributions, I was moved to a high profile development project for the client by their manager.

In the absence of a proper team lead from off-shore for 2-3 sprints. I lead the team temporarily by co-ordinating with the on-shore lead. I distributed tasks and worked as a team player. Since the team was new and inexperienced with the new technologies, I helped them complete their tasks by guiding them through the process. We as a team finished the tasks well before deadline under high pressure situations.

About Me

I have been involved with official college bands from my college Shades of Black, Blue Haze and self founded band in 2012, Astral Temple, where I used to write music for our own compositions. Music helps me focus towards a particular goal and relieves a lot of stress. My genre of music is mainly Melodic metal and Djent, but I am also into generating simple blues licks. I draw a lot of inspiration from Periphery

I'm mostly into cricket, however, I also play football, table tennis, basketball, volley ball. I never miss out on swimming too. In cricket, I play as an all-rounder. I can generate little pace which can clock between 120-130 kmph which comes mostly from my shoulders when I am at my peak. I can be an aggressive batsman in search of runs and I can defend at times of crisis and pace my innings through as a team player.

I like to explore new technologies and expand my knowledge on new areas. After .NET technologies, I started looking at MEAN stack. I graduated from Mobile Web Specialist Nanodegree on September 2018 by being a Google India Scholar. It was a full funded scholarship program for 6 months. The course was worth 45000 INR. I completed it within 4 months time. I take courses from Udacity, Udemy, Edx, Coursera to enrich my knowledge further.
