AI-assisted verification and design conversion, such as VHDL to SystemVerilog
More than an extra pair of hands
We're happy to strengthen your team, but we can do much more. Our senior engineers take on real responsibility:
-
Technical leadership: for example, one of our engineers worked as digital design lead at a global manufacturer of electronic sensors and components, responsible for the design of their product.
-
Customer-facing work: we align directly with your system architects, product managers and end customers.
-
Scope ownership: we can deliver a defined block, subsystem or the full design and verification of a project.
-
Product experience: we know what it takes to get to production, including specifications, reviews, tape-out and bring-up.
Flexible engagement models
-
Team extension: senior engineers who join your team and become productive quickly
-
Technical lead: design or verification leadership for your project
-
Turnkey delivery: a defined scope with clear deliverables and full responsibility on our side
Based in Graz, Austria, with a presence in Budapest, we work with clients across Europe and worldwide.
