Designer of analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits with 8+ years of experience.
My main design work focused on high-frequency phase-locked loops as well as SerDes design and I performed more than 5 tape-outs in a nano-scale technology node.
I am passionate about analog layout design and developed various tools and parametric cells to facilitate the work, among them a powerful technology-independent layout generator.
Furthermore I worked on high-frequency printed circuit boards for characterization of integrated designs.
Additionally, I have a strong programming background with experience in digital design, embedded firmware and development of open-source design tools.
