A little about me, what I do and what I've done
A little about me, what I do and what I've done
My name is Chris Hampson, I'm a systems developer specialising in automation relating to verification HW (Emulators, FPGA systems). I enjoy the challenges presented making these pieces of exotic hardware more usable, more useful and the use of them more efficient.
For well over a decade I've been working at ARM Ltd in Cambridge, UK. I've worked as a verification infrastructure engineer building and maintaining automation infrastructure for the in-house verification hardware. Automation workflows, scheduling mechanisms, and metric gathering solutions.
I've recently accepted a position at Apple as a DV CAD/Emulation Infrastructure Support. I'm looking forward to bringing my skillset to this new position and seeing what challenges I can find there.
