RISC-V CPU Micro-Architect in Chennai, India

My name is Karthik, and I'm an Engineer and Photographer, both by passion and profession. I am currently with InCore as a CPU Micro-Architect. Prior to this, I was with the Centre for Heterogeneous and Intelligent Processing Systems working on Energy Efficient Computing Techniques. Prior to that, I was a mentee at the Linux Foundation working on device drivers for the Linux kernel.

I have about 2 years of experience in CPU micro-architecture in the Indian semiconductor industry. I also have an additional year of research experience in energy efficient computing techniques. My research interests lie in CPU micro-architecture for high-performance computing. I plan to pursue a PhD some day.

I like to write about things that interest me at work, you can read some of those articles on Medium - https://medium.com/@talktokarthikbk . I love travelling and adventure. I am a certified open-water diver. I am also a photographer. You can check out some of the best pictures I've clicked on Unsplash - https://unsplash.com/@thatbangaloreanguy ❤

I am part of a reading group (currently inactive) - India Systems' Research Discussions (https://systemsresearch.carrd.co/).
