Aug 2023 – Jul 2024 · 11 mos · Dresden, Saxony, Germany

a. Synopsys Spyglass subflow test Automation (Aug 2023 - Jan 2024)
i. Developed Jenkins-based automated test drivers for Spyglass subflows, including
linting, CDC, and RDC verification.
ii. Automated execution of individual test cases to validate Spyglass flow updates.
iii. Designed and implemented Jenkins pipelines to trigger multiple test case runs
upon code push to Bitbucket repo.
b. CDC and RDC Methodology (Feb 2024 - July 2024)
i. Created RTL snippets with deliberate Clock Domain Crossing (CDC) and Reset
Domain Crossing (RDC) violations.
ii. Executed Synopsys Spyglass simulations on snippets to identify and study CDC/
RDC messages and violation patterns.
iii. Documented findings and simulation results to support internal knowledge
sharing and methodology improvement.
