Yacine Sotehi

PhD Student Analog/Mixed IC Design & Full-Stack Developer

About Me

I am an Analog/Mixed-Signal IC Design Researcher with a Master's in Electronics Instrumentation and industry experience building robust full-stack Laboratory Information Systems. Currently pursuing my PhD, I recently led the analog team for a successful tapeout using the open-source IHP-SG13G2 PDK.

Beyond chip design, I actively bridge the gap between hardware and software through CAD/EDA automation. When I step away from layout design and web development, I enjoy developing 2D games using the Godot engine and tackling low-level hardware troubleshooting.

Experience & Education
