Summary
Christos Sotiriou is an academic and R&D-focused computer engineer with 14+ years of hands-on experience in EDA algorithms, logic synthesis and physical design for ICs and FPGAs. As an Associate Professor at the University of Thessaly and Partner at Silicon Highway Technologies, he bridges cutting-edge research with industry delivery on PPA (power, performance, area) optimizations and timing-driven design. He has led technical teams and consultancy engagements for major industry players including multiple roles at Qualcomm, and has driven product-focused R&D from CTO-level startup work to post-placement SOC optimizations. His long-standing specialization in asynchronous (clockless) circuit design and STA gives him a rare depth across both theoretical complexity and practical implementation trade-offs. Based in Volos, Greece, he combines academic publishing and teaching with direct IP implementation and customer-facing development. An understated strength is his history of translating advanced research (e.g., Pareto tradeoffs in concurrent control and clockless IC prototypes) into deployable tools and optimized silicon.
