🎉 Exciting Year-End Celebration at Sondrel Hyderabad! 🎉   As the year draws to a close, the Sondrel Hyderabad team came together for an unforgettable year-end celebration filled with fun, laughter, and teamwork.   The highlight of the event was an exhilarating treasure hunt that had everyone on their toes, racing against time to solve clues and find hidden treasures. The energy and enthusiasm were palpable as teams collaborated, strategized, and navigated through the challenges, showcasing their teamwork and problem-solving skills.   After the thrilling treasure hunt, the team headed to 10 Downing Street, a popular spot known for its vibrant atmosphere. There, everyone enjoyed a sumptuous lunch and a variety of refreshing drinks. During lunch, the fun continued with a lively game of charades, where colleagues showcased their acting skills and had a great time guessing movie titles. The ambiance was perfect for unwinding and celebrating the year's achievements. Everyone shared stories, laughed over memorable moments, and enjoyed the successes of the past year while looking forward to exciting opportunities ahead.   We captured some fantastic moments during the event, and we're excited to share the photos with you all.   The event was a fantastic way to strengthen bonds, celebrate the hard work and dedication of the team, and set a positive tone for the upcoming year. Here's to more such joyous occasions and continued success for Sondrel Hyderabad! #Hyderabad #India #Electronics

Here is our next interview which is with Kirthi Chadalapaka, Technical Competency Lead - Physical Design How many years have you been with the company, and what has kept you here for so long? I have been with Sondrel for more than 7 years now. Sondrel has been the first company that recognized my talents and gave me incredible opportunities to hone them and essentially made me who I am. Sondrel also gives a lot of importance to work-life balance. What aspect of working here have you enjoyed the most throughout your time with us? I felt highly valued in Sondrel even when I was a relatively junior engineer. Sondrel is a place where you are valued based on skill and not experience. At Sondrel, I felt that I had a lot of freedom to mould my career however I see it fit. Here, I was not typecast into a certain role for years which happens in multiple companies. What aspects of your role or the work environment motivate and inspire you to come to work each day? At Sondrel, there is a lot of collaboration without a clear demarcation line between different domains like Physical Design, FE Design, DFT etc. This meant that on any given day, there was always something new to learn and new issues to debug. There is never a dull day in Sondrel, which excites me to come to work every day. In what ways has the company supported your personal and professional growth over the years? I had a meteoric rise in Sondrel going from a junior engineer, learning the ropes, to being one of the key pillars on the Indian team in a matter of three years. During that period, I was given rare opportunities to punch above my weight class and every time I succeeded, I was given bigger responsibilities until, five years in, I rose to be the leader of my domain in the company. What advice would you give to someone considering joining our team? If you are considering Sondrel, be ready to expand the boundaries of what you think can be achieved. There are no limits to what you can achieve here if you are ready to give it your all. That doesn’t mean that work is going to consume your life here. A healthy work-life balance is one of the cornerstones of Sondrel’s work culture. #electronics #ElectronicDesign #DesignEngineer #PhysicalDesign #Hyderabad #India

Last Wednesday, we had an amazing time at our UK Christmas party!🎉 It was great to see so many of us come together to celebrate, enjoy some delicious food, and kick off the festive season as a team!   We made the most of the evening with darts, shuffleboard, some memorable karaoke performances, and a festive quiz that challenged our language skills (even Klingon for the Trekkies) and movie knowledge.

Here is another in our series of interview with engineers about why they like working at Sondrel. This time it is the turn of Lewis Hill who initially joined us as part of our very successful graduate scheme in 2023. #Electronics #GraduateProgramme #semiconductors #ASICDesign

It's the festive season and the Sondrel teams around the world are meeting to celebrate. Last Friday, the Morocco team came together for a delightful company dinner at O'Caprices in Rabat. It was an evening filled with great food, lots of laughter, and plenty of meaningful conversations that took us beyond the usual work topics.   Moments like these remind us of the importance of connecting as a team, sharing stories, and building bonds that strengthen our collaboration in and out of the workplace. It’s not just about the work we do but also about the people we share the journey with.  Here’s to more memorable moments like this with our amazing team! #Morocco #ElectronicDesign #ASICDesign #electronics #Semiconductors

Morocco is home to one of our major design teams. We are recruiting there so we interviewed Wissal Talib, who is a Senior HR Business Partner based in Morocco and leading the Morocco office. #Morocco #recruitment #Jobs #DesignEngineers #RecruitingInMorocco #ASICDesign

Here is another in our interview series. This time with Wu (Vicky) Yuechen, a valued Sondrel Recruiter. 1. How many years have you been with the company, and what has kept you here for so long? I have been with Sondrel for over eight years now. At Sondrel, I can not only have professional development but also get the right work & life balance. Over the past years, I’ve had the opportunity to take on new challenges, grow my skills, and continuously push my career forward.   2. What aspect of working here have you enjoyed the most throughout your time with us? One of the aspects I’ve enjoyed the most is the opportunity to work with such a diverse and talented team. I’ve been recruiting for the global team, including different countries and departments, and we have different cultures, different accents and even in different time zones. But this does not affect how collaborative and supportive our workplace is. We don’t just focus on our own goals — we always do them together, sharing knowledge, learning from each other and helping each other, and constantly pushing each other to improve. It's hard to imagine that as an HR, I would gain such a wealth of knowledge in semiconductor and finance, thanks to the guidance of my team members. 3. In what ways has the company supported your personal and professional growth over the years? Sondrel has lots of training opportunities, mentorship guidance, mature and complete promotion systems, and also provides autonomy for an employee's personal development. I am always encouraged to further study and develop personal interests. So that's why I've been able to not only expand my skills in the recruitment and HR fields but also in other fields, like finance. My first position at Sondrel was HR and Admin, then I had an opportunity to be promoted as the China Recruiter, and then I joined the global Recruitment team. From this year, I also support the Finance team -- such varied experience has really enriched my career.   4. What advice would you give to someone considering joining our team? Sondrel is a place where you are encouraged to continuously improve and grow, so if you’re looking for a place to challenge yourself and build a meaningful career, this is a good choice. Look forward to working with you！ #ElectronicEngineers #Jobs #Electronics #DesignEngineers
