Indian Institute of Technology Madras · Minor in Computing · CGPA 9.15/10 · Advisor: Dr. Rachel Kalpana Kalaimani

Thesis: Formation and containment control for multi-agent systems with obstacle avoidance and adversary mitigation. Developed a resilient control framework using Exponential Control Barrier Functions and a 2D extension of the W-MSR algorithm.

Experience

Ph.D. Researcher

KTH Royal Institute of Technology

Developing cooperative safe-RL algorithms for edge computing systems under network, computation, and safety constraints, with a focus on multi-agent coordination, distributed decision-making, and safety enforcement via control barrier concepts.

Research Intern

Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore

Worked under Prof. Pavan Kumar Tallapragada on quantized Friedkin–Johnsen dynamics, analyzing convergence and robustness in distributed decision-making processes.

Interim Engineering Intern

Qualcomm, Noida

Automated version control, stub generation, and constraint analysis for SoC interconnections, improving integration efficiency and timing-closure automation.
