Ing Simon is a Software Architect based in Ilmenau, Germany with a decade of professional experience building FPGA toolchains and embedded systems. He progressed through senior technical roles at Synopsys—driving HAPS and ProtoCompiler FPGA autopartitioning—as a Senior, Staff, and Principal Software Engineer before joining Cadence as an architect. His background blends research and product development, including postdoctoral work and co-founding an embedded/Linux software consultancy, which explains his ability to translate academic problems into production-ready tooling. Comfortable across low-level embedded stacks and high-level architecture, he repeatedly delivers pragmatic solutions for complex hardware‑software integration challenges.
