What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a dynamic team where I can contribute to ASIC/FPGA verification and embedded Linux development, keep improving Bash/Makefile workflows, and collaborate on bring-up and validation to deliver reliable hardware.

I’m an Embedded Engineer with several years of work experience in embedded systems, and a strong passion for development in the field of ASIC & FPGA. I bring a practical, quality-first mindset—comfortable working autonomously or collaborating in a team—and I’m actively growing my Make file knowledge and skills through hands-on development with Bash, Python, and TCL.

At Cobham Gaisler AB (Space Industry), I’ve been a Hardware Engineer (ASIC/FPGA) utilizing industry-standard EDA tools to simulate and perform functional AMBA Protocols verification of CPU-subsystem IPs. I write and debug test benches in VHDL/System Verilog and C using ModelSim, update TCL scripts to analyze area, power, and Xilinx timing parameters, generate STIL patterns for ASIC verification, and integrate/synthesize a processor with a Xilinx MIG controller for testing on an FPGA board. Previously at Ericsson (Telecom Industry), I worked on bare-metal and Linux test-case development, CI automation for radio device testing, and board bring-up—using oscilloscopes and lab instrumentation to discern and correct faulty circuits—while collaborating on design reviews and validation testing.
