## Headline

Senior CPU Cores RTL Design Engineer at AMD \|\| Ex‑Googler \|\| Ex\-ISRO \|\| IIT Bombay

## About

I am a Hardware Engineering Professional specializing in full\-cycle micro\-architecture and Superscalar CPU core RTL design\. I bring a unique edge to high\-performance computing by pioneering AI\-enabled SoC integration and LLM\-driven automation, recently achieving a 90% reduction in integration planning and IP selection cycles\. With a track record of 6 successful tapeouts and a patent in neural\-network\-based branch prediction, I excel at optimizing complex pipelines and reducing energy\-per\-instruction to meet aggressive PPA targets\. ​I leverage Intelligent Design Systems—utilizing Python and LLMs—to automate IP selection for 130\+ instances, while applying deep technical expertise to resolve project\-blocking CDC/RDC bugs and complex design bottlenecks\. I am driven by the challenge of architecting next\-generation, high\-issue\-width processors and delivering silicon that pushes the boundaries of performance and efficiency\.

## Location

## Work experience

CPU Pipeline RTL Design Engineer at AMD, Apr 2026 \- Present · 4 mos, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India, \-&gt; CPU Pipeline Design\. \-&gt; Instruction Cache Unit Pipeline Design\. \-&gt; Branch Prediction Unit Pipeline Design\.

Silicon Engineer at Google, Jul 2022 \- Apr 2026 · 3 yrs 10 mos, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India, Micro\-Architecture &amp; RTL: Led full\-cycle design \(SystemVerilog\) for a complex AXI\_BLOCKER IP, solving a critical RDC bug that had halted the project\. SoC Integration: Reduced top\-level GPU SoC integration time by 75% by implementing AI\-driven workflows utilizing LLMs to build integration plans from scratch and manage complex multi\-power\-domain dependencies\. AI\-Enabled Design: Engineered a Python\-based Intelligent AI system powered by LLMs to automate IP selection for 130\+ RAM instances; successfully hit strict PPA constraints while slashing process time by 90%\. Verification &amp; Debugging: Resolved \~50 critical CDC bugs and created custom constraints for complex, staggered releases\. Timing &amp; Power Closure: Troubleshot and resolved core EDA tool bugs \(power integrity, floorplan instability\) with CAD/implementation teams\. Key Achievements: Contributed to 6 successful tapeouts and filed a patent for a neural\-network\-based branch predictor\.
