Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMalavika Sajikumar is a Tech Lead Product Applications Engineer with 8 years of experience designing and supporting firmware and mixed-signal solutions across semiconductor and IoT domains. She combines deep low-level programming (C/C++, C#, Assembly, VHDL) with hands-on hardware experience on x86, microcontrollers (8051, PIC, AT89C51) and interfaces like I2C/SPI/RS232, having delivered factory and field application support for power sequencers, supervisors, and wireless products. Her background spans cross-disciplinary roles at Astera Labs, Atmosic, Analog Devices, Linear Technology and Synaptics, giving her a pragmatic edge in translating silicon behavior into robust product firmware. Based in Fremont, CA, she pairs tool fluency (MATLAB, MPLAB, Wireshark, Git) with production-focused troubleshooting, often bridging lab validation and customer deployment. An understated strength is her consistent move from firmware engineer to technical lead, reflecting both deep technical rigor and growing ownership of product-facing engineering.
