Phill Snyder

Phill Snyder has worked in the field of engineering since 2010. Phill started their career as a Senior Mixed Signal Design Engineer at PMC-Sierra, where they designed high-speed custom digital circuitry, including clock generation and distribution, for several flash-ADCs with sampling rates up to 25Gsps. In 2015, they moved to MultiPhy and worked on a PAM4 30GBaud/s SerDes receiver and a PAM4 60GBaud/s line transmitter. Their experience includes samplers, ADCs, DACs, clocking, layout and modeling of transmission lines, and high-speed digital circuits. In 2019, they joined Ferric, Inc. as a Senior Analog Design Engineer. Prior to their engineering career, Phill Snyder worked as a Clean Room IT & Web Designer and Automatic Video Game System Designer at Columbia University's Center for Integrated Science and Engineering. Phill also spent the 2009 summer at Columbia University's Laboratory for the Recognition and Organization of Speech and Audio (LabROSA), where they worked on a project titled "A Multiple Algorithm Automatic Audio Segmentation Evaluation System for MATLAB". In 2007, they worked as a Physics Research Student at Washington & Jefferson College, where they studied the use of electrets towards their use in electrostatic motors.

Phill Snyder received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Columbia Engineering in 2010, and a B.A. in Physics from Washington & Jefferson College in 2008. Phill also obtained a certification in MOS Transistors from Coursera in May 2013.
