Summary
Amber Harrington is a Senior Design Verification Engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in pre-silicon digital verification and embedded firmware for power electronics ASICs. She combines deep hardware skills—VHDL, SystemVerilog, UVM, FPGA validation and EMI troubleshooting for ISO-26262 compliance—with low-level C/assembly firmware and Matlab DSP work. Known for building custom verification environments and efficient Linux/scripting workflows (and an expert vim user), she bridges the traditional hardware/software divide to solve thorny integration issues like softlocks and tooling failures. Her background in music composition and extra-class amateur radio license inform a creative, signal-focused approach to engineering and synthesis. Based in Longmont, CO, she is driven by curiosity and continuous self-directed learning, enjoying practical tinkering from synth-hacking to gardening alongside professional projects.
