Principal Project Manager at Cadence Design Systems
December 12, 2016 Worked on different teams
Even though Jay is part of DDR team, he created an amazing site where the entire department can look at various analytics and dashboards to track project data, deliveries, tickets, and statistics to ensure quality and excellence. His passionate work ethics is not limited to work either. We had a volunteer event where we were distributing food to 3,000 families and while others stood around waiting to help the delivery, he quickly found work that needed to be done and got them done and continued to do so half hour past the expected end time. He is an inspiration.

Mrityunjay is one of the best AEs I have come across. He has a passion for innovation and would always come up with new ideas. He created a whole bunch of tools and scripts which made everyones life in the company easier. Almost every AE would visit his site "leo" for information on the company, skill code examples, etc... His expertise was sought by all and he would willingly help people across all teams. I enjoyed working with Mrityunjay and am in awe of the amount of passion, energy and expertise he brings into the team.

A proficient coder across many languages and many domains. It would be safe to say that without Jay's work, getting things done would have been difficult.

Director of Internal Communications and Employee Engagement
September 12, 2006 Worked on different teams
I have never met an Application Engineer more dedicated and engaged than Jay Singh. To say that he goes 'above and beyond' is to do him a grave disservice. He is always looking for ways to improve Cadence, extending from his daily responsibilities through to developing what is probably the most-used application among internal Cadence employees. He is extremely dedicated in his job, while at the same time he manages to be affable and possessed of exceptional people skills. Highly recommended.

Jay in an extremely hard-working, dedicated, and innovative person. He created a number of very useful internal tools at Cadence, most notably the "Leo" system which (even after his departure from the company) serves as a focal point for collecting and organizing information which many people use on a daily basis. Jay's commitment to excellence is also reflected in his work with Cadence's customers. He spent literally months onsite at one of our largest customers, traveling to another part of the country, a huge effort which contributed significantly to Cadence's successes at that account.

Analog Mixed Signal Verification Engineer
August 21, 2010 Worked on same team
I have always enjoyed working with Jonathan. Working with him is never easy for people who are fond of band-aid solutions. With him, it goes from issue in hand to philosophical discussion, coming back to a complete solution followed by documentation and sharing back with the team or paper presentation to a broader audience. Jonathan's procedure oriented approach and his depth and breadth of ever growing knowledge makes him a valuable asset for any team. Range of expertise varies from knowing the details of a science experiment a century back to the bleeding edge technologies of today and future. Keeping it cool during the toughest times, consistently deliver on schedule, mentor colleagues, respond to help requests, work hard are some of those things that define Jonathan. Jonathan is one of those guys, who completes the team. I highly value and recommend his contribution and participation.

Pranav worked in R&D and I have worked closely with him on numerous occasions. He is a hard working, sharp guy with great analytical skills. An excellent team player, always upbeat and ready to help.
