MIIPS, 2026

This is how to say my name:

 

What unique skills or interests do you bring to the iii?

I bring a strong foundation in embedded systems and hands-on experience in building IoT hardware prototypes, ensuring smooth integration between hardware and software. My skills include hardware programming, PCB design, and electronics. Through internships, I’ve gained practical knowledge in design for manufacturability and have created 3D-printed enclosures for scalable production. I’m also trained in CAD design for mechanical systems. Recently, I’ve expanded into data analytics, learning tools and Python to work with large datasets—skills I aim to build on as I explore AI and machine learning.

Why MIIPS?

I chose the MIIPS program at Carnegie Mellon because it offers a unique mix of design, engineering, and business. With a strong core in product development and flexible electives, I can tailor my learning toward Robotics and AI—building on my background in Embedded Systems. The program’s hands-on approach and real-world focus will help me understand how to design, develop, and market innovative products from the ground up.

Education

Bachelor's Of Technology - Electrical and Electronics Engineering [Medi-Caps University]

What type of role are you looking to obtain after you graduate?

After graduation, I’m looking to work in roles that combine Robotics, AI, and product development—fields where I can apply my background in embedded systems, hardware prototyping, and growing skills in data analytics and machine learning. I’m particularly interested in roles such as Robotics/AI Product Engineer, robotics engineer, embedded systems engineer in AI/robotics, mechatronics engineer, machine learning engineer for robotics applications. One of my key goals is to work at NVIDIA, especially in their robotics division, which was recently showcased for its cutting-edge work in AI-powered autonomous systems.
