Build validation strategies, debug cross-stack issues through pre-silicon validation and initial silicon testing, and improve the tools and automation supporting register-interface development.
What we need to see
A bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a similar field, or equivalent experience.
5+ years of proven experience in computer architecture, GPU architecture, CPU architecture, system-on-chip design, or a related area.
Experience designing, modeling, or validating sophisticated hardware features from definition through confirmation, with proficiency in C++ and Python or a comparable scripting language.
Strong understanding of interactions among hardware, firmware, and system software, with a demonstrated ability to diagnose and resolve issues spanning components or abstraction layers.
Experience developing coherent architectural standards across multiple teams, paired with clear technical writing skills and experience crafting specifications and collaborating with distributed, cross-functional groups.
Ways to stand out from the crowd
Experience with hardware register architecture, address-map development, memory-mapped I/O, or device-control interfaces.
Knowledge of context switching, scheduling, virtualization, or execution-state management.
Familiarity with RISC-V or other embedded-controller architectures, on-chip interconnects, or cross-die communication fabrics.
Experience with firmware, device drivers, functional or performance modeling, hardware verification, or test development.
Hands-on experience with pre-silicon validation, silicon bring-up, automated interface generation, or maintaining architectural compatibility across product generations.
