Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJiri Hladky is a seasoned quality engineering leader with 12 years of experience and a deep 9-year specialization in digital back-end ASIC flow from RTL to GDSII, including low-power design down to 45nm. Currently supervising Kernel QE at Red Hat, he blends hands-on kernel testing and test development with people leadership, hiring and performance management. Previously he led Cadence-backed digital back-end implementations for major customers like Texas Instruments, delivering measurable power and area improvements that drove tool adoption. Strong technical breadth spans VHDL/Verilog, scripting and scientific computing libraries, plus kernel patching and multi-precision arithmetic work—skills rooted in an RNDr. in Physics and refined through multicultural, multilingual (EN/DE/CZ) roles across Europe. Known as a practical troubleshooter and trainer, he pairs rigorous math/physics intuition with a “learning by doing” mindset and a fondness for experimental math and board games.
