About

Jay Shah is a Silicon Architecture Engineer at Intel Corporation with over 7 years of relevant experience in the semiconductors industry. He is a highly skilled CPU architect with a strong background in Intel Architecture, CPU and platform architecture, and processor memory subsystem hierarchy. Jay holds a Master of Science (M.S.) degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology, where he focused on Operating Systems, Computer Architecture, and VLSI Design. He is proficient in C/C++, x86 and AT&T assembly, Embedded Systems, and development in Linux. He has also worked on Arduino and AVR microcontrollers as well as 8086 Microprocessor as part of either a school project or a hobby project. At Intel Corporation, Jay is currently working as a Silicon Architect, where he has defined a performance analysis and bottleneck assessment flow for real-time workloads for CPU applications from a system perspective. He has also influenced future IOTG platform architectures to enable architectural features to mitigate these bottlenecks. Jay has developed expertise in cache pseudo-locking from an IOTG perspective and developed methodologies to evaluate pseudo-locking capabilities on various platforms supporting both inclusive and non-inclusive caches. He has also characterized hardware prefetch effectiveness for filling the caches effectively to counteract Intel cache hashing for non-power of 2 CBO architecture. Jay has previously worked as a Silicon Architecture Engineer at Intel, where he was part of the Real-Time Architecture team working on current and future Intel IOTG platforms. He identified key performance indicators for existing and future IOTG platforms and developed methodologies to test these indicators. He has also developed functionalities in the TSN driver to enable the measurement of these key performance indicators. Jay's education background includes a Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Birla Institute of Technology and Science and a high school degree in Physics, Maths, Chemistry, English, Environmental Science, and Computer Science from Zydus School for Excellence - I. Jay's tech stack includes Senior Software Engineer, C, test, and infra. He is a strong engineering professional with a demonstrated history of working in the semiconductors industry.
