Today’s guest is Tom Mikolyuk, Mechanical Engineer and early team member at Chiplytics, a Seattle-based startup that’s making the world’s electronics safer by testing chips using a groundbreaking technology called Power Spectrum Analysis. Tom joined Chiplytics as their very first intern — and went on to become their first full-time hire. Since then, he’s helped lead hardware development, product design, and system integration as the company’s grown from concept to funded startup. We’ll talk about how Chiplytics is transforming electronics testing, what it’s like working at the intersection of hardware and software, and the lessons Tom’s learned helping build a company from the ground up.
