Our Relationships
Drive Innovation

Gary is a no-nonsense, get it done expert recruiter in the semiconductor industry. I relied heavily on Gary and Analog Solutions for our most difficult hires, and I could always count on Gary to deliver a just-in-time A player.

Gary is exceptionally well connected to engineers and executives within the wireless, mixed signal, IC design community. Gary will provide straight forward and well vetted assessments of a candidate’s skill set, as well as a clear understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of competitive opportunities. Gary works diligently to recruit, coach and deliver key players that will become the core of you design team.

I have worked with Shawn Fowler for several years. Shawn and his team at Analog Solutions are among the most professional and results oriented recruiters I have worked with. They have extensive contacts within the semiconductor industry and a well-deserved reputation for quality searches. Analog Solutions team was very effective in matching the candidates’ background and experience with my job requirements in an expeditious manner without wasting my time. Shawn took personal charge in fulfilling my hiring needs for IC design, test and applications engineers in the highly competitive Power Management market. I strongly recommend Shawn and Analog Solutions for anyone looking to staff up their organization with qualified talent from junior engineers to senior management level.”

I have worked with a number of recruiters in the past and in my opinion, Shawn is the best I have worked with. I would be happy to provide a reference to any interested parties.”

I’ve hired Shawn several times to find key positions for me as CEO at iWatt and VP of Power PSoC at Cypress. Shawn is professional and well connected in the electronics market. He takes the time to understand the requirements to find the right candidate for the position. I enjoy working with Shawn and I highly recommend him and Analog Solutions.

Gary has an exceptional list of highly talented professionals whom he has formed outstanding relationships with over many years. He is very reliable and trustworthy and works diligently to outperform his client’s expectations.

Shawn is a great recruiter. He has great connections and knows the Analog/mixed signal field quite well. He knows all the disciplines and can recruit the right people with the right background. He has helped me over many years in finding top notch talent in engineering, marketing and sales. I appreciate the fact that he only sends me relevant resumes rather than bombarding me with unrelated resumes.

Gary knows the analog IC industry better than any other recruiter in the business. He knows the companies and key people and is capable of sourcing top-notch talent for any technical need.

I have been knowing Gary for 6+ years, probably met him in ISSCC at San Francisco. He provided talents while I was a hiring manager. He also marketed me to his clients in the past. He is a very trustworthy recruiter in the analog/mixed-signal domain where he knows the subjects well and keeps good track of the design experts. He also knows well the market/venture trend. He is probably the only recruiter that I have built a strong personal relationship.

I have had the privilege of working with Shawn for many years. We have worked together to build a number of IC design centers throughout North America, and to hire numerous senior management personnel in a variety of business and technical capacities at Maxim and Micrel.
