“Demand for Tanner EDA’s full-flow design suite for analog and mixed-signal IC design has been growing worldwide,” said Greg Lebsack, president of Tanner EDA. “Jeff’s experience selling and managing sales teams for product lines that span front-end to back-end IC design couldn’t be a more perfect fit. We look forward to Jeff continuing to expand our global customer base.”
