  • Drive design decisions across compute engines, memory subsystems, interconnect, control logic, and system infrastructure
  • Conduct architecture and RTL reviews
  • Establish engineering processes and design methodologies
  • Mentor and develop RTL engineers

Requirements

  • Strong RTL design experience in complex SoCs or related systems
  • Deep understanding of digital design fundamentals and microarchitecture
  • Experience with Verilog and SystemVerilog
  • Familiarity with memory systems, interconnect fabrics, cache hierarchies, and system-level data movement
  • Experience balancing performance, power, area, and design complexity
  • Ability to drive technical projects from concept through silicon bring-up
  • Experience with hardware/software co-design and system-level performance optimization

Benefits

  • Performance-based incentives
