Jim Terence Colaço — Product Manager
I manage a team of exceptional engineers. My technical expertise lies in the domains of writing specifications, building a micro-architecture, RTL design, Synthesis, Lint, CDC checks, DfT DRC, DfT architecture, DfT Insertion, STA and FPGA Design validation all in the scope IP level, Subsystem level and SoC level. I handle end to end solution delivery to customers in high tech industries like HPC, Consumer Electronics, and Automotive sectors. I’m adept at project management, delivering to multiple engagements on very challenging schedules. I am competent with DSP algorithms and blocks (Design and Implementation of filters, CORDIC and other useful blocks targeting DSP). I have in-depth knowledge of the PCIe protocol and hands on experience in building solutions using the same. I have also been responsible for developing an in-house PCIe IP and have designed and overlooked the design of PCIe Physical Layer with a small team of design and verification engineers at my previous organization. I am competent with the Ethernet protocol and have worked on adding features to an Ethernet Controller, MACSec implementation as well as integration of Ethernet controller and on-chip PHY. I have also had experience bringing up off-chip PHY ports with SFP interface via MDIO. I have hands on exposure and expertise with the PHY and MAC for PCIe and Ethernet use cases, having owned and designed the high speed interfaces subsystem for multiple products. I have an in-depth understanding of the ARM Cortex M7 processor, it’s capabilities and integration methodology. I am well versed with tools provided by Synopsys, Xilinx, Intel FPGA, Magillem, Mentor Graphics, and Cadence. I possess a very logical and rational mindset to tackle any problem. I also have excellent communication skills. When I'm not working I usually make music (I play the guitar) or enjoy a book. I also am a big fan of online gaming and enjoy long rides on my motorcycle. I would be happy to hear from you if you have a project I can help with or if my skills interest you.
