It started with
“how does
this work?”
Kedareswar.
Right from my childhood, I have enjoyed observing my surroundings quite closely. The overhead electrical lines, remote control cars, toys, and various other electrical equipment caught my eye at a very young age. Frequent visits to my cousin's workplace, where he repairs mobile phones and other electronic devices, further enhanced this penchant for electronics and electricals.
These experiences created an urge towards electronics, leading me to start my journey as a hobbyist from a young age. I designed timer circuits and programmed Arduinos, sitting corner of my room inhaling the Soldering smoke at midnights. Now, I am a professional hardware design engineer working on designing complex processor-based designs.
I believe that my enthusiasm for electronics helped me build the required knowledge by surfing YouTube videos, taking Udemy courses, and participating in electronics forums. Consider me if you desire someone with a "can do" and "let's do it" attitude and who enjoys challenges.
In a nut shell, An Electronic Hobbyist who has transformed their passion into a thriving career. With a solid technical foundation and a penchant for tackling complex challenges, I bring 7 years of substantial industry experience to the table. Complemented by an MSc degree from the UK, I’m fueled by an unwavering drive to be the crème de la crème of engineers in the field.

BEYOND THE CIRCUITS
Topics we could discuss all day.
I believe what we watch can shape our priorities. I’m always curious to learn, question what I think I know, and grow. These are the subjects I can happily discuss and debate for hours. I also try to stay open to new perspectives.
Automotive & mobilityWhy do some engines make more power from the same displacement? Turbocharging, fuel injection, compression ratios, Otto vs Atkinson cycles, and the real-world trade-offs of EVs. I also follow China’s growing edge in electric vehicles and batteries, and whether it is reducing the footprint of German automakers in global markets.Geopolitics & energyWhat sits behind the headlines in the Middle East and South Asia? I follow Israel and Palestine, Gaza, Iran and its regional partners, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf, and how the United States, India and Pakistan shape alliances and current conflicts. I’m especially interested in how nationalism, radicalism and competing political movements take root, and in what can ease tensions. I’m also interested in how oil, energy security and control of supply routes shape global power, alliances and conflict.Wars, empires & world historyHow did Jewish communities and the Ottoman Empire shape the modern world? I’m curious about the causes and consequences of the First World War, including imperial rivalries, the Ottoman fronts and the collapse of empires. My interest in the Second World War includes the Holocaust, radical movements, the nuclear age and Japan’s surrender. I also follow how these upheavals led to Soviet influence, decolonisation and today’s major powers.Politics, power & societyHow do political systems and societies shape each other? I’m curious about imperialism, communism, democracy and republicanism; radicalism; migration and national identity; religious influence; and the pressures shaping Europe and the United States. A recent trip through more than five European countries made these questions feel more tangible. I came away curious about how Europe’s imperial past still shapes its cultures, migration debates, and relationship with the rest of the world. I want to keep exploring those questions through history, evidence, and different points of view.Economics, markets & valuationHow do decisions in London, Washington and Delhi reach households, markets and businesses? I follow central-bank policy, inflation, unemployment, bonds, and Indian and US equities. I also enjoy company analysis: P/E ratios, profitability and margins, cash flow, debt-to-equity, and how those fundamentals inform valuation. Startups interest me too, especially how investors judge young companies with limited track records, assess risk, and decide what future growth may be worth.Technology, space & engineeringHow are engineering and geopolitics changing what is possible? I’m interested in electronics development, major technology shifts, launch vehicles and satellites. I also follow the countries and industries building the next space age.
