Summary
Vivek Adi is a PhD researcher and seasoned R&D engineer with nine years of cross-disciplinary experience spanning spintronics, nanoelectronics, VLSI, real-time FPGA systems, and semiconductor manufacturing. Based in Singapore and active at NUS labs, he blends academic rigor—publishing IP and research—with practical product engineering for electric traction systems and ASIC/FPGA platforms. His background includes hands-on design of IGBT-based power converters, SoC-FPGA control cards, and mixed-language RTL verification, plus contributions to rail vehicle control and train performance modelling affecting mass transit systems. As a team lead and workshop organizer, he pairs competitive drive with a collaborative mentoring style and a philosophical commitment to collective growth. Notably, he bridges deep-physics training (BS in Physics) with applied electrical engineering, enabling rapid translation of novel magnetic materials and spintronic concepts into testable device implementations.
