Summary
Zawad Munshi is a silicon validation software engineer with 8 years of hands-on experience bridging hardware and software across computer architecture, VLSI, and embedded systems. He holds an M.S.E. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Michigan and has shipped validation and automation work at companies from Arista and Analog Devices to Apple. Zawad’s background spans embedded C firmware, Python test automation, CAN/UDS vehicle diagnostics, and PCB design for power-sensitive wearable and EV systems, demonstrating fluency across lab, bench, and CI-driven toolchains. He has repeatedly accelerated release cadence—most notably cutting integration test times by ~95% in a BMS role—and built instrumented testbeds that monitor multi-subsystem power in parallel. Comfortable coordinating cross-functional firmware, hardware, and software teams, he’s as likely to debug a signal on an oscilloscope as to deploy containerized test infrastructure. Based in New York, he brings a practical systems perspective informed by competitive student projects and production validation at scale.
