About Srinivasa Manikanta (Manikanta Rajapantula)
I am Srinivasa Manikanta Rajapantula (often known as Srinivasa Manikanta, Manikanta, or Rajapantula), an Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) student at Andhra Loyola Institute of Engineering and Technology (ALIET), Vijayawada. I specialize in Embedded Systems, Industrial Automation (PLC, CODESYS, Factory I/O, Modbus TCP), IoT (Internet of Things), Smart Energy Technologies, and Control Systems — turning real-world engineering challenges into reliable, scalable solutions.
I work at the intersection of hardware circuitry, embedded firmware, industrial automation, and smart energy systems. Web development is a supporting skill I utilize to build real-time monitoring dashboards, control interfaces, and calculation tools for engineering applications.
Through industrial training at Coromandel International Limited, I built a strong foundation in power systems, electrical machines, control systems, and industrial distribution maintenance.
