Jasvinder's ability to grasp the big picture while delving into details, along with emphasis on teamwork, makes him a valuable leader and asset. I found that he thrived in both highly structured and chaotic startup-like environments, always striving to improve efficiency in engineering and operations."

"I had the pleasure of working closely with Jasvinder for over 10+ years, experiencing a variety of roles and setups alongside him. Our collaborations spanned from being part of the same team to witnessing him lead the DevOps team, and even acting as a customer of his remarkable leadership. Throughout these experiences, Jasvinder has consistently stood out with his exceptional skills in tackling complex projects, focusing on critical areas, and delivering high-quality solutions. Back in 2010, I had my first encounter with Jasvinder when I joined a project he was leading, aimed at supporting a new and challenging language for HW Verification. Despite multiple failed attempts by others, JS took the initiative and guided the team to successfully deliver a working product. The complexity of the project was further heightened by competition from a mature rival, yet his determination and expertise prevailed. Subsequently, Jasvinder assumed the role of leading the entire BU DevOps organization, where he demonstrated outstanding abilities in streamlining operations, implementing new processes, developing software, and nurturing new leaders. These changes had a far-reaching impact across the company, and his efforts played a crucial role in integrating a large HW company after acquisition. As a witness to the seamless integration of the acquired HW company on the product side, I can attest to the extensive efforts that Jasvinder put into making it a success. His dedication to establishing a robust infrastructure that continues to serve the company to this day is truly commendable. Jasvinder's leadership skills continued to shine as he took on various product delivery responsibilities. One such project was the development of a verification management system, where myself was the RnD lead, a complex full-stack product with distributed teams across multiple geographies and strategic customers. His DevOps expertise played a vital role in ensuring the product's success, as he effectively aligned the team's efforts with the overall vision for optimal execution. Following the triumph of the verification management system, Jasvinder took up another challenge involving system-level verification. This undertaking required assembling the right team, identifying key talent, and making crucial decisions on long-term architectural approaches. My team was highly involved in this project together with Jasvinder as well. His ability to address these diverse challenges proved once again to be invaluable, leading to a successful outcome. Even as my team moved to a different business unit, Jasvinder's innovative use of technologies from the system-level verification product allowed him to address verification challenges in the automotive space as well. This adaptability and resourcefulness further exemplify Jasvinder Singh's exceptional skills and leadership capabilities. In conclusion, Jasvinder has consistently demonstrated remarkable dedication, professionalism, and technical acumen throughout our collaboration. His ability to tackle complex projects, foster teamwork, and drive successful outcomes is a testament to his outstanding leadership. It has been an honor and a pleasure to work with him, I learned a lot from him through those years and I highly recommend him for any future endeavors."

Jasvinder has excellent leadership, technical, and people skills. Under his leadership, I have seen significant growth and innovation of several new technologies such as VCS ICO, VCPS, EMAN/VMS. Each project was at different stages of maturity & needs. These also come with various challenges: resourcing, operational and technical that were project specific and diverse. As a seasoned leader, he had acquired a good grasp of each project, and knew exactly what to ask and identify the gaps. He followed up with each stakeholder and made sure they are accountable for their part. He has always been encouraging the teams working on new projects to focus on winning at least one customer. Accordingly, he has mobilized the team and prioritized the tasks for customer-centric goals. He had weekly meetings where he would communicate with us with all organization details, vision, and updates, and provide the transparency that was all the more needed during COVID remote working period. These meetings also gave us the opportunities to collaborate with the other team members and brainstorm ideas. On occasion of conflicts, he would take them offline or resolve in small group. He would listen to all views. This helped to diffuse the situation often, allowing the situation to calm down. I believe he can address any operational challenges with his unique 'can do' style and I wish him whole heartedly success in his future endeavors.

"I have worked as part of Jasvinder's organization after he started leading the Software Engineering team in VG from around 2012, and directly or indirectly worked with him till I left Synopsys in 2020. He is one of the most hardworking managers (to be honest, leaders) I have ever worked with, and he consistently provided detailed step-by-step plans to ensure excellent execution. During his tenure, he made some unpopular but essential decisions at critical junctures. These decisions significantly improved the entire codebase and, in turn, enhanced the team's influence and effectiveness across the Business Unit. Jasvinder consistently exhibited a strong passion for the work, which was evident in his energy level and pace. He took the time to comprehend actual pain points; and once he gained a clear understanding of the problem scenarios, he placed great trust in the team's technical capabilities and refrained from micromanaging. Despite this, he ensured that project delivery dates and customer expectations were consistently met. Finally, Jasvinder holds exceptionally high standards for both the quality and ethical aspects of work. His attributes, such as dedication, can-do and lead-from-the-front attitude, broad knowledge, and genuine concern for the personal and professional well-being of his team members, distinguish him not only as a remarkable leader and mentor but also as a wonderful friend."
