Staff ASIC Engineer - CAD Engineer - EDA Infrastructure at Meta, Mar 2026 - Present · 9 mos

ASIC Engineer, CAD Engineer - EDA Infrastructure at Meta, Sep 2024 - Present · 2 yrs 3 mos, Bengaluru, Driving automation and infrastructure for large-scale ASIC development across Design, Verification, Physical Design, DFT, and Performance Engineering. Key Contributions • Architected a configuration-driven eFuse Redundancy Chain RTL Automation Platform integrating SpyGlass DFT, MBIST, floorplan, and design metadata to generate production-ready RTL. Reduced implementation from weeks to a single automated run and deployed across 15+ ASIC silicon programs. • Developed a browser-based Interactive RTL Schematic Visualizer with a multi-threaded PSV/SystemVerilog parser supporting 14+ engineering views, eliminating dependency on licensed schematic tools. • Enhanced CSRGen to generate SystemVerilog RTL, C models, Python dictionaries, documentation, and verification artifacts from a single register specification, creating a single source of truth across hardware and software teams. • Developed Veripy, GenFileList, and MemGen automation frameworks for RTL conversion, dependency resolution, vendor memory generation, and ASIC implementation flows. • Built PerfGen, a reusable framework that automatically generates performance counters, event logic, and RTL, standardizing performance instrumentation across multiple hardware blocks. • Designed engineering analytics dashboards using Python Flask and Gunicorn, providing visibility into timing, runtime, compute utilization, power analysis, and infrastructure health. • Developed advanced EDA license analytics for FlexLM, RLM, and OpenLM, enabling near real-time license monitoring and optimization. • Automated GRID/HPC infrastructure, license-aware scheduling, and utilization analytics to improve compute efficiency and engineering productivity. Technologies: Python, Linux, SystemVerilog, RTL, ASIC CAD, EDA, Flask, Gunicorn, YAML, JSON, SpyGlass DFT, MBIST, FlexLM, RLM, OpenLM, GRID/HPC, CSRGen, Veripy, MemGen, GenFileList, PerfGen.

Senior DevOps Engineer & EDA License Manager at Intel Corporation, Jul 2022 - Sep 2024 · 2 yrs 3 mos, Karnataka, India, • Innovative Web-Based Access Provision Automation for EDA: Developed web-based Access provision automation tool using Python Flask, multi-threading, and Gunicorn. This reduced errors and boosted efficiency by streamlining access provisioning for projects. Could handle 50 servers simultaneously, making modifications to access provisions in the options file and deploying changes to SVN and the license server within 5 minutes. Integrated auditing features to ensure compliance and promptly identify erroneous access configurations. • Real-Time Log Analysis Development: Developed a smart watchdog tool on license servers to grab real-time data from license logs, allowing for dynamic analysis. Merged this solution smoothly with a user-friendly web tool using FastAPI, making it easy to see log details directly on the webpage. Added features like graphs and filters for simpler analysis of current real-time usage and historical usage data. • Enhanced EDA Licenses: Optimization of Electronic Design Automation (EDA) licenses for improved workflow efficiency. • Strategic License Allocation: Utilized forecasting to recommend optimal EDA license allocation, reducing operational costs. • Real-Time Monitoring: Created a customized Looker dashboard to monitor EDA license usage, facilitating quick identification of bottlenecks. • Usage Metrics Analysis: Crafted a dynamic Looker dashboard to analyze usage percentages and identify optimization areas for better system performance. • Proactive Monitoring: Engineered a Looker dashboard to track license server load, enabling prompt corrective measures to prevent downtime. • Resource Management: Implemented a Looker dashboard to monitor license grants, facilitating efficient resource allocation and workflow optimization.

DevOps Engineer & EDA License Manager at NXP Semiconductors, Jan 2021 - Jul 2022 · 1 yr 7 mos, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India, EDA License Administration and Automation: • Developed an Ansible License access management playbook to add CAD Engineers to license access list, performing an audit for every three weeks to check new CAD joining company, by integrating SPLUNK API. • Developed Ansible Playbook to generate ssh keys on multiple servers and deploy password less authentication across all servers. And, to do spoofing of MAC and IP. • Developed DLSP analytics Splunk dashboard to monitor and visualize the load and failure of in-house tool developed to assign license search path allocation. • Developed an architectural flow chart for the DLSP [Dynamic License Search Path] tool including various aspects as load on LSF farm and license usage and availability and assign a licence search path to user based on load and license availability. • Developed and deploy Dashboards to see the RESERVATIONS and MAX implementations status of start and Expiry with project priorities. Identified and resolved process issues to encourage smoother procedures, more efficient workflow, and overall business growth. • Determined and recommended methods to address improvement opportunities. • Written PRE and POST migration Automation scripts to take-up backup activities and copy to backup server directly from license server during pre-migration and do copy licenses and new vendor Daemon binaries wherever required and start required services during post Migration activities of RHEL 6 to RHEL 7u6 EDA license server infrastructure migrations. • Do Spoofing of MAC and IP to support RHEL 6 to RHEL 7u6 EDA license server infrastructure migrations. • Developed bash script to deploy Pointer-files with cross site / multi cluster deployment capability. • Developed Splunk dashboard to monitor load on EDA servers and give right increment parameters to perform according to the load characteristics and incoming requests.
