You test hardware ideas early enough that they can still change, building prototypes that let software and architecture teams learn before anyone commits to custom silicon. A useful prototype with honest measurements is worth far more here than an impressive demo.
Open for applications. Starts at: Research program.
We are taking applications for this role now and building the pipeline for it. The stage above is when the work itself is expected to begin, which is something you deserve to know before you apply rather than after. It is context, not a gate.
Where
In the office together five days a week, in one of our garages, and remote-friendly around your family, arranged one person at a time. We hire across the United States 🇺🇸, India 🇮🇳 and the UAE 🇦🇪.
The work
Map proposed subsystems to FPGA platforms, connect host software and collect workload traces. Build practical interfaces and instrumentation. Explain which prototype results transfer to an ASIC and which are artifacts of the FPGA implementation.
The milestone
In your first 90 days, demonstrate one end-to-end prototype with a correctness suite and a written assessment of its architectural value.
Required
Nice to have
Evidence
Bring experience with FPGA toolchains, digital logic, host interfaces and debugging physical systems. A useful prototype and honest measurements matter more than an impressive demo video.
Evidence, not credentials. We are describing work you can point at, in whatever form it exists.
The exercise
Choose a prototype boundary for a new memory subsystem and explain what the prototype can and cannot validate.
The package
Indicative pay ranges by market and level are on the compensation page. Plan numbers are confirmed in your offer letter.
Apply
One short form. A person reads every application and you hear back either way. You will get your own link to check where things stand, and you can withdraw or delete your application from it at any time, without an account.
