Supported the Virtuoso Analog Design Environment (ADE L, XL and GXL) R&D activities.* Wrote product requirement specification (PRS) documents for new and enhanced capabilities. Coded accompanying mock-ups and functional prototypes where appropriate.* Wrote and edited tutorials communicating new features and fixes to the field.* Captured issues uncovered during beta testing in forms reproducible by R&D.* Devised work-arounds for bug and enhancement requests. * Assembled and maintained databases used for beta testing (IC612_Whatsnew).

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

Worked in the field demonstrating analog/mixed-signal IC electronic design automation (EDA) software, troubleshooting customer issues, conducting workshops and delivering educational services courses. Supported the Analog Design Environment (a.k.a. Analog Artist), schematic capture, mixed-signal simulation using both the Verimix (a.k.a. Spectre-Verilog) and AMS Designer flows and engines, and parasitic back-annotation flows using Diva and Assura extraction results.

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

Reverse engineering ICs for the purposes of patent infringement and competitive analysis.

Kingston, Ontario, Canada

Supported EDA software and fabrication access for the Canadian University community. * Supported the use of Analog Artist in the Cadence 97A and IC 4.4.1 releases. * Supported the Gennum GA911 process design kit. * Wrote Perl scripts for submitting Requests For Manufacturing (RFM) from the website instead of by Fax or E-mail. Note: CMC was called "Canadian Microelectronics Corporation".
