Stephen Longfield is a Member of Technical Staff with 11 years of experience building functional simulators, debuggers, and performance profiling tools for high-performance SoCs and ML accelerators. He led functional simulation for Google's ARM Server Axion family and multiple TPU generations, combining deep design-verification expertise with hands-on automation and kernel-driver work. A Cornell PhD candidate focused on formal verification for asynchronous circuits, he brings rigorous academic grounding to practical verification and low-energy hardware design. Now based in Sunnyvale, he’s leading simulator and tooling development at Etched, translating complex microarchitectural behavior into reliable, performant software stacks. Notably, his background spans from circuit and embedded work at startups and internships to production-scale simulation leadership in hyperscale environments.
