// summary

Senior software engineer working close to the metal on next-generation AI accelerator hardware. I build and optimize low-level compute kernels, profile and benchmark tensor operations, and hunt bottlenecks across the stack to drive device throughput — and own end-to-end model tracing and validation plus the tooling and infrastructure around it.

// experience

Senior Software Engineer

MulticoreWare Pvt Ltd · Chennai, India // Jun 2023 – Present

Software engineering for a leading AI silicon company's accelerator stack — developing and optimizing the software that runs on next-generation AI chips.
Work as part of an element-wise operations team — contributing kernel development, code review, and CI health for unary/binary element-wise ops.
Author and optimize low-level compute kernels with broad data-type coverage (fp32, bf16, int32, uint8/16/32) and hardware-specific instruction-level work verified against ISA documentation.
Own end-to-end model tracing and validation with sweeps — reconstructing real model operation traces from a database and validating them against generated sweep tests for exact-match coverage.
Profile and benchmark kernels with the device profiler, tracking kernel execution time and diagnosing per-core load imbalance to guide optimization.
Maintain performance-tracking automation and daily/weekly reporting pipelines that flag regressions against historical baselines and correlate them to commits.

Industrial Project Engineer

Lenovo Pvt Ltd · Pondicherry, India // Jun 2022 – May 2023

Developed and maintained a smart attendance system using face-recognition technology with database integration.
Built an ESD tester with database-backed logging for real-time test workflows.
Worked on computer-vision algorithms, biometric authentication, and real-time data processing.

// projects

ttperf — AI-Accelerator Performance Profiler

CLI tool that profiles AI-accelerator compute tests and extracts device kernel performance metrics. Wraps the device profiler with pytest, parses result CSVs, and reports total kernel duration. Published on PyPI.
