He has worked with semiconductor and product companies in various senior techno-managerial roles at Motorola, Lucent Microelectronics, Agere Systems, LSI, SHARP, and Honeywell. Mouli has worked on in-house RTOS development at Motorola. He was heading the Networking software division as Director of Engineering at Agere Systems and LSI Bangalore, with a team of 100+ engineers, working on various networking products based on ARM SoCs. He was heading the Automation Control Solutions team of 180+ engineers at Honeywell, Madurai, as Director of Engineering,

Mouli has immense interest and six years of experience in teaching too. He has recorded 45 hours of a video course on “ARM based development”, which is available on NPTEL and National Digital Library of India (NDLI).

Prior to joining Vidyashilp University, Mouli was working as Professor of Practice at RV University, Bangalore. As head of the Systems stream of courses, he has designed and developed seven courses for the BTech in CSE from Semester 1 to 7, including OS, Network Security, IoT and Edge Computing and Accelerated Computing. He was also head of curriculum development and collaborated with industry to drive courses and setting up labs.

While Mouli was working as an Adjunct Faculty at IIIT Bangalore in the year 2015, he was sent on deputation for four years to Myanmar Institute of Information Technology (MIIT), Mandalay, (an Indo-Myanmar Govt. project), where he designed and delivered 25+ theory and lab courses for BE (CSE & ECE).

As an Adjunct Faculty at upGrad, he has recorded video lectures on Electrical and Electronics Circuits, modules on multicore performance metrics, and on Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN). He was also a visiting faculty at IIIT Lucknow, handling courses on Python and AI for IoT. Before joining RVU he was working at IIIT Bangalore as Adjunct Faculty for a year and handled, Microprocessors and Microcontrollers (ARM), RTOS and OS-Lab courses.
