Summary
Anish Singhani is an FPGA engineer based in New York with 11 years of experience building open-source silicon, hardware security, and low-latency FPGA systems. Currently at Jane Street, he brings a rare blend of hands-on RTL design, PCIe/firmware integration, and production deployment experience from internships and roles at Apple, Optiver, and FPGA-focused research projects. He taught an open-source chip design course at Carnegie Mellon, guiding students through tapeout with tools like Yosys, NextPNR, and OpenLane and maintaining the course materials publicly on GitHub. His background spans deep-learning accelerators, sensor-fusion hardware for robotics, and real-world FPGA trading stacks, reflecting strong cross-domain fluency between algorithms, system bring-up, and tooling. Notably, he pairs academic research and published FPGA work with practical security-minded engineering such as CTF design and classroom sysadmin for large security courses.
