Prasad

Electronics Engineer with experience in semiconductor design verification, troubleshooting, root cause analysis, and automation. Currently applying regression testing and functional verification methodologies as a Design Verification Engineer, with prior experience developing Python-based, object-oriented test software including GUI design, input validation, and error handling for production-line equipment. Seeking to apply these skills in a new engineering role, with a strong willingness to learn and adapt to new domains

Design Verification Engineer at AMD Silicon Design (2024-11 – Present)

• Conducted hardware sub system verification and validation activities for the Fusion Controller Hub (FCH), ensuring compliance with design specifications and functional requirements.
• Performed systematic troubleshooting and root cause analysis of build, compilation, simulation, and regression failures to maintain a stable and reliable engineering environment.
• Executed regression test suites comprising 73 verification tests, analyzed failure results, implemented corrective actions, and achieved a 100% regression pass rate.
• Led a team of 3 engineers for AMD's Bumblebee Project, driving sub-system validation and verification from initial milestone to project completion — coordinating verification activities, troubleshooting, root-cause analysis, error resolution, and project deliverables.
• Performed Logic Equivalence Checking (LEC) to verify functional equivalence between RTL and synthesized netlists, identifying design mismatches prior to implementation.
• Automated coverage analysis using Claude AI, reducing manual verification effort and improving coverage review efficiency.
• Designed and wrote test cases to verify functional correctness of hardware modules against design specifications, covering regression, sanity, and edge-case scenarios.
• Guided newly hired engineers on AMD verification workflows, debugging techniques, and verification methodologies, supporting their integration into project activities.

Test Engineer Intern at Tecan CDMO Solutions (PN) Sdn Bhd (2023-10 – 2024-01)

• Developed a Python-based automation software using OOP concepts that generated Excel reports directly from production-line scaling equipment data.
• Reduced report generation time from 11.01 seconds to 2.69 seconds, improving processing efficiency by approximately 76%.
• Improved production-line productivity by eliminating manual data entry and reducing human error.
• Automated manual data-processing activities, reducing data-entry requirements and minimizing the potential for human error in production reporting.
• Worked with production-line equipment data to improve reporting efficiency and support manufacturing data analysis.
• Applied programming and automation to improve an existing manufacturing workflow and reduce repetitive manual tasks.
