Hi, I'm Aditya S Malagi
Electronics & Communication Engineering student passionate about VLSI design, FPGA systems, and RTL verification. Building hardware, one register at a time.
About
A learner in love with logic

I'm an Electronics & Communication Engineering student with a strong interest in VLSI design, FPGA systems, and RTL verification. I have hands-on experience with Verilog-based digital design — from FSMs to memory modules — and I'm proficient in C, Python, and Verilog. I'm actively learning SystemVerilog and UVM, and I'm seeking an entry-level role in RTL design or verification.
