Namaste I am
संजय कुमार
Bangalore, India · Cadence Design Systems
I am a Software Architect at Cadence Design Systems, Bangalore, with extensive experience in building SoC Virtual and Hybrid platforms that accelerate early software development and performance tuning.
Over the years I have designed and delivered IP modeling infrastructure, modelled complex IPs such as DMAs, Interconnects and full system integrations. I am well versed in every generation of virtual-platform methodology from C/C++ based SSI (Simulation System Interface) right through to industry-standard SystemC / TLM 2.0.
I have built several transactors bridging industry memories (DDR4/5, LPDDR4/5) with a fast coherent SystemC memory sub-system, a DSI Display Host Controller interface and a CSI-2 Camera device transactor for RTL co-simulation.
Outside work, I love experimenting with modern C++, learning new programming paradigms, writing for my tech blog, and creating simple programs to introduce kids to coding.

BITS Pilani
Advanced studies in microelectronics, semiconductor devices and VLSI design, complementing expertise in SoC architecture and hardware-software co-design.
National Institute of Technology (NIT), Trichy
Strong foundations in computer science, data structures, algorithms, operating systems and computer architecture at one of India's premier engineering institutions.
Addresses the non-trivial challenge of implementing deterministic, hierarchical reset in large SystemC virtual platform models - a critical requirement for accurate SoC bring-up simulation.
Presents a methodology for specifying and automatically instantiating SoC connectivity from a human-readable netlist description, dramatically reducing integration effort and error rate.
Granted patent covering a novel method and system for hybrid emulation of image signal processors, enabling early ISP software validation before silicon availability.
A selection of personal experiments and learning repositories from github.com/yajnas07
Experiments and explorations with C++11 and C++14 features - move semantics, lambdas, variadic templates and more.
Bite-sized C++ snippets and utilities - a personal cookbook of idiomatic C++ patterns and solutions.
Fun browser-based game experiments - an active playground for exploring JavaScript game programming.
Conway's Game of Life implemented in JavaScript - a classic cellular automaton demonstrating emergent complexity.
Simple beginner-friendly programs to introduce children to programming concepts in a fun, approachable way.

View All ReposBeyond the day job — things I build, learn, and explore purely for the joy of it.
I build interactive web-based learning portals to make school subjects engaging for kids. My learnr project hosts structured lessons covering Maths, Science and Social Science — complete with equations, diagrams and quizzes, all rendered in the browser.
yajnas07/learnrI use Manim — the mathematical animation engine made famous by 3Blue1Brown — to produce programmatic, publication-quality animations that explain complex technical and mathematical concepts visually. A great intersection of code, creativity and pedagogy.
yajnas07/manimI enjoy experimenting with Large Language Models — from prompt engineering and RAG pipelines to building small agentic tools. I find the intersection of LLMs with EDA and verification tooling particularly exciting, exploring where AI can accelerate hardware design workflows.
I love crafting classic arcade experiences entirely in vanilla HTML/CSS/JavaScript — no frameworks, just pure web fun. My games repo currently hosts nine playable games:
