Senior🎓
Top SchoolSmriti Garg is an experienced hardware and embedded systems engineer and entrepreneur with nine years of industry experience and over two years running an educational maker lab in Portland. She has deep RTL and FPGA expertise (VHDL, Verilog, synthesis and post‑layout validation) from roles at Intel, Genesis Microchip, LRDE and Wipro, owning power-management and thermal/ACPI validation for Intel GMCH chipsets. Smriti also designed and validated sophisticated signal‑processing units (FIR with distributed arithmetic, FFT, digital pulse compression) for radar and video projects, and led random testing and pre‑silicon validation efforts. As founder of Kewl Buddies Maker Labs she translates complex hardware topics into hands‑on curricula for kids using Arduino and breadboarding, demonstrating a rare ability to move between low‑level silicon design and public-facing STEM education. Her toolset spans MATLAB, ModelSim, Synplify/Quartus/Leonardo, plus proprietary Intel flows, and she brings practical lab debugging experience with oscilloscopes and logic analyzers.
