Summary

We're searching for an experienced hardware engineer who thrives at the intersection of architecture, RTL, and verification. The right candidate will bring both hands-on technical expertise and the ability
to guide teams through complex design cycles that push the limits of modern silicon.

What You'll Work On
Own the architecture and RTL development of advanced hardware blocks, ensuring successful integration into large-scale systems.
Drive verification strategies for highly complex modules, collaborating closely with verification engineers and system architects.
Contribute to end-to-end chip design workflows, from early architecture definition to final tapeout.
Partner with cross-functional teams to refine specifications and validate hardware/software interfaces.
Share knowledge and mentor peers, helping grow technical depth across the team.
Explore and apply modern ML techniques in the context of chip design automation and optimization.

Qualifications

What You Bring
5+ years of experience working in chip design environments, ideally with contributions to production tapeouts.
Demonstrated expertise developing architectures and RTL for sophisticated IP or subsystems.
Background in cutting-edge chip organizations (CPUs, GPUs, SoCs, or leading EDA teams).
Proven leadership in technical or team-building capacities.
Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline.

Technical Expertise
Strong proficiency in SystemVerilog/Verilog and modern SoC design methodologies.
Hands-on programming skills in Python for design automation or tooling.
Familiarity with verification methodologies (UVM highly valued).
Experience developing IP in areas like PCIe5, PHY, LPDDR, memory controllers, NoCs, CPU subsystems, or similar domains.
Understanding of hardware/software co-design principles.

Why is This a Great Opportunity
Join as Head of Hardware to lead the transition from tool development to building chips faster than Nvidia or Apple, with clear path to technical leadership as they scale.
