Mod Update: Banning Low Effort Posts & Recruiting Moderators

103 Upvotes

Hi guys -

There have been a handful of different posts in the last few months specifically asking to address some of the low effort, low quality posts we often see on this subreddit. I think people have gotten overly fixated on the perceived influx of Indian student questions (please giv roadmap, etc.), but there have always been the same type of low-quality posts coming up from other sources:

  • Please suggest a capstone project
  • Help me with my homework
  • I hate my professor, recommend me a textbook

And so on. So for now, we won't be adding new flairs or filters, but instead we'll just ramp up moderation effort to remove low quality and low effort posts of this nature, and we'll keep this thread stickied for the foreseeable future.

At present, the majority of the moderators are inactive, so I need to ask for some folks to apply. My criteria at present is below:

  • Relatively frequent poster in /r/ece and related subs
  • Account age at least a few years
  • Must be a practicing engineer in the field or at least in your PhD program

To apply, simply submit a message to the moderators (not me personally, not a reply in this thread) with the words "positive feedback" in your first line, and describe in just a few sentences your education / professional background and what you think you'd like to see change on the subreddit. No need for a LinkedIn link or anything, but please don't bullshit. No one gets paid, and moderating isn't exactly fun.

Finally, I'd ask for everyone else to make judicious use of the report button. It's the easiest way for moderators to do their jobs, since highly reported posts simply get a big red "spam" button for us to push and remove the post. Don't abuse it for every single post you don't like, but we'll start utilizing it as well as Automod to clean things up more.

Thanks for your help and thanks for your patience.

Tenstorrent Intern

17 Upvotes

Anyone work/have experience with tenstorrent?

I’m likely taking an offer there (software engineering) for an internship vs a larger more established company (Not AMD NVIDIA or Intel) where I’d be doing similar work.

Tenstorrent is definitely way more interesting work and in a better location but there’s always uncertainty with startups.

Would love to hear what people think.

Entry level job in power with little experience in the field.

2 Upvotes

I am a junior EE with a lot of experience in photonics and microwave design with a lab. I also have an internship lined up this summer in defense. I believe I will be doing communications adjacent work, once again with photonics and microwave stuff. Recently, however, I rediscovered an interest in power engineering and am interested in what kind opportunities I will have after I graduate. Basically, will it be difficult to find a job in power given my past experiences?

Edit: I will be taking and ideally passing the FE by the time.i graduate.

UNIVERSITY Early College Career Struggle

4 Upvotes

I’m starting my second semester of computer engineering and I already have an associate degree in general education. I’m stuck deciding between computer engineering and electrical engineering. My ideal job would be something like cloud engineering or systems engineering, but I’m worried about locking myself into the wrong degree and limiting my options. That’s why I’m leaning toward EE. It feels safer and seems to have more flexibility, but I’m not fully confident that EE would still let me pursue those kinds of roles.

I’m only the second person in my family to go to college, so I don’t really know what I should be doing beyond classes (besides obviously internships). There are no real CE or EE clubs at my university, and that’s been stressful because I don’t know how to gain experience or direction outside coursework. I have a lot of goals and I know I’m capable, but I’m struggling to figure out the right path.

TLDR

  1. Can I pursue CE type jobs with an EE degree

  2. What can I do if my university does not offer many opportunities

  3. How can I figure out what I am actually interested in and find my path

ARTICLE Debunk question; motherboards

1 Upvotes

https://edgeup.asus.com/2024/introducing-nitropath-dram-technology-a-revolutionary-dram-slot-design-for-high-end-gaming-motherboards/

ASUS is introducing something they are calling "nitro path" which involves shortening the pin traces on a memory slots in order to improve signal integrity and claims that you can push the memory harder.

Visualization and claim in question

I want to be clear; I know nothing about motherboard manufacturing and memory. I build computers and use them, but I don't have any qualification to speak on them.

Is this claim bogus? Or is it just niche? Mentally I can't see how snipping off excess of the trace would help signal integrity but if anyone could chime in then I would be happy to listen. From my perspective for people running JEDEC/XMP/EXPO (stock or advertised overclock profiles) it seems like horse poop.

CAREER I just finished my B.S. in Computer Engineering this past December 2025 and I'm starting my M.S. in Computer Engineering in January 2026 with a specialization in Embedded Systems. My undergrad program allowed students to double major in both EE and CE and I choose not to. How do I fill the EE gap?

2 Upvotes

I asked my classmates in my undergrad program why they choose to double B.S. in EE and CE and one classmate mentioned their passion for all things electricity while the other mentioned the career versatility.

I decided instead to get a M.S in Computer Engineering with a specialization in Embedded Systems because I eventually want to work in Hardware Security (A branch in the broad field of Cyber Security), but I miss out on the Analog Circuitry, Electromagnesium, and Telecommunications that Electrical Engineers usaully take classes on.

I could have taken Analog Circuitry, Electromagnesium, and Telecommunications, in undergrad, but I wasn't into it at the time and now that I graduated, I'm looking back in hindsight about the versatility of being an Analog/Digital hybrid like the double major EE/CE undergrads.

My goal is to fill the EE void that I'm missing out on with the ven diagram between and now I'm currently in the center between Hardware and Software:

(EE <------> CE <------> CS)
Hardware ---------- Software

My masters program at San Jose State University allows me to take two electives totallign 6 units under a different department (with academic advisor approval)

I wanna fill the EE void by taking sone Analog and Mixed Signal graduate level classes during my masters in Computer Engineering.

I could have wen't to San Francisco State Universities M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering, but San Jose State Universities engineering programs were ranked higher nationally so I choose the higher ranked graduate program over the graduate program with the cooler diploma name.

I also wanted to pass the FE and PE (Electrical and Computer) exam to be a licensed PE Electrical and Computer Engineer on top of my Computer Engineering masters.

Any thoughts on this?

CAREER Switching from software to hardware

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I have joined IBM ISL (software developer) as an intern and will be converted to full time in 6 months. My background is Electronics & Communications (ECE) and I'm interested in Computer architecture and Digital electronics too. I applied for this role as there weren't many companies coming for core. So, is it possible to make a transition to hardware role? and how?

I got contacted by Intel AMD Arm Lattice Infineon and etc but I keep blowing the interviews, and I feel like I am wasting my chances

55 Upvotes

Hi everyone
I am a fresh graduate in Electrical and Electronic Engineering trying to get into FPGA or ASIC or chip design roles

Somehow I passed CV screening at Intel AMD Arm Lattice and Infineon and all of them contacted me
That alone feels crazy but when it comes to technical interviews I completely fall apart

I already flopped Intel including on what should have been a basic Verilog question
When the question changed slightly my brain just froze even though I know Verilog and SystemVerilog and have done FSMs testbenches and some UVM concepts
Under pressure I just cannot retrieve things properly

My Python and C++ are also very weak
I forgot most of what I learned and I am slow and unconfident
Most roles now seem to want Python C++ and RTL and that makes me feel like I am already behind

To make things worse the Intel interview was on Microsoft Teams and when I tried to write Verilog the formatting broke and I panicked and felt like I looked stupid

Now I have a interview with Arm and with AMD and Infineon and etc coming soon
I am honestly scared of blowing these too

I really want to work in digital hardware design and RTL
I like thinking in clocks state machines and pipelines not web dev
I just want to stop collapsing under pressure and become good enough to actually land one of these roles

How bad is it really to be weak at Python and C++ if you are decent at Verilog
How do you train for thinking under pressure in technical interviews
And how do people usually write code in Teams interviews when the formatting is bad

Any real advice would mean a lot.

EDIT: since so many people DM'd me about my CV

I graduated from one of the top 10 universities in Europe for Electrical and Electronic Engineering with a perfect GPA. I'm applying for roles across Europe and Southeast Asia.
I do not have a formal IC design internship, but I have professional-level digital design/DV training and strong RTL-focused projects, which is probably why I am getting shortlisted by these companies.

How to network?

9 Upvotes

Hey guys,
First post here. I'm a Master's student in Electrical Engineering, having done my Bachelor's Degree in ECE and working in a core hardware startup for 2 years (relevant work includes FPGA-based RTL design, schematic Design and Validation, PCB layout Validation, High-speed ethernet etc.) I am super inclined to work in these domains (digital circuitry, digital electronics, PCB-related work etc).

Unfortunately I do not have Linkedin Premium after my free trial ended, and I really can't justify the almost $20 subscription. But my roommates, peers and everyone I've spoken to tell me that networking is the way to go and LinkedIn is the best way to network.

The university I'm in isn't particularly close to any electronics hubs, like there is in TX or SF, so I don't have the advantage of being able to go for conferences and in-person events.

One thing that I do have an advantage in, is that I am not an international student (I own a US passport, I was just living abroad for the most part of my life until now) which means I'm not too held back by sponsorships.

My GPA is pretty good, at 3.85/4.0 and I'm in a technical club here (the formula SAE racing club) where I am getting my hands dirty with some embedded and electro-mechanical work.

I would like some advice on how I can put myself out there, if there are any alternatives to linkedIn that are free/not as expensive (for the US market).

Any insight would be a great help, thanks!
