Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSatnam Singh is a software engineer with over a decade of experience applying functional programming, formal methods and machine learning to hardware and systems design. He has moved between industry and academia—shaping FPGA and silicon designs at Xilinx, Microsoft Research and Groq, building ML-focused compilers and verified roots of trust at Google, and now combining ML with the Lean theorem prover for hardware verification at Harmonic. His work blends practical backend contributions to high-profile open source projects like the Kubernetes API with deep research in theorem proving (Coq, Agda), Lava/Bluespec hardware DSLs and Haskell. An elected member of IFIP working groups and a Fellow of the IET, he uniquely bridges theorem provers and chip RTL, often using LLMs to assist formal proofs. Based in Los Altos, he thrives on turning formal specifications into verifiable silicon and tools that make hardware safer and faster.
