Christophe Guerrier

I have over 20 years experience as a Microelectronic Engineer, specialized in physical implementation of Integrated Circuits, covering pure analog layout (RF to mixed signals) and digital implementation (multi-millions gates design with clock going up to 2Ghz).

During my career, I have contributed to the development of several chips using nodes from 0.5um down to 5nm ; and worked with cross-continental and multicultural teams under tight schedules.

I have consistently up-skilled myself, seeking opportunities to learn and develop myself. exploring new areas, like moving from pure Analog to Digital Design. I have some experience in Project Management. I am fast learner, a much appreciated team contributor. My various roles required me to effectively communicate across multi-functional teams, show rigorous work and methodology and being able to work autonomously.

I undertook a Higher Diploma in Statistics to sharpen my data analysis abilities. In the future, I would like to merge my knowledge of IC design with my statistical knowledge.
