Foreword

It’s an excellent time to be working in the semiconductor industry. Qualitatively, we are all familiar with Generation Z’s constant appetite for digital consumption. That appetite is driving technical innovation starting in huge data centers and moving out to the growing sea of smartphones. Quantitatively, Gartner tells us that our industry is growing at a rate of 26% year over year. The semiconductor industry has never been more complex, and it’s going to keep getting more complicated. Every device needs to be smaller, more powerful, and more energy-efficient than the previous generation. There is no doubt our industry is shifting as waves of consolidation and innovation crash into new geographies and new markets, but the demand for intelligent, highly integrated chip design keeps growing. This means that any aspiring hardware engineer – whether they want to work for a hungry, young startup or an establ
