Hi, I'm a Microarchitect at Agrani Labs, a stealth mode AI Semicondutor startup.

I have earlier worked on RISC-V CPU Design at InCore Semicondutors, where my efforts included RTL Design in Bluespec SystemVerilog, uArch specification, and the development of ASIC methodologies leading to first-pass silicon success.

During my undergrad, I also interned on VLSI Design and Performance Modeling of the Ganaka Architecture at IIIT Bangalore, Hardware Accelerator Design at CIE, and Electronics Research at the Indian Institute of Science (OrbitAID Aerospace). I was also the Teaching Assistant for three core subjects, was awarded eight Cadence Digital Bagdes for the "Digital Design and Signoff" track, and a VLSI Specialization.
