What you will be doing:
Partner with ML and Software teams as a key hardware domain expert, translating complex silicon constraints into actionable insights for model training and agentic design
Build and maintain an ecosystem of benchmarks and evaluation infrastructure to measure and improve the quality of our tools
Execute and refine novel chip design methodologies, from architectural specs to synthesized netlists to complete bitstreams to identify where AI can optimize the flow
Generate and curate massive datasets of syntactic and semantic hardware code to improve model robustness
Implement robust verification environments, writing the SystemVerilog/UVM testbenches and assertions with our tools that ensure our generated designs are correct-by-construction
Apply AI to real-world problems. Serve as the primary technical point of contact for customers, providing expert guidance and support to help them integrate Cognichip ACI® solutions into their design flows.
What you must have:
Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field.
5+ years of experience in RTL design, verification, or a combination of both, with a passion for customer-facing roles.
Proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog and scripting languages like Python for automation
Experience with digital design EDA tools such as AMD (Vivado), Altera/Intel (Quartus) ecosystems or ASIC physical design chains, including SoC and IP integrations
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a strong ability to translate complex technical information into clear, actionable guidance.
A consultative, problem-solving mindset and a passion for helping others succeed.
Comfortable working in a dynamic, research-heavy AI-oriented startup environment
Salary/Rate Range: $200.00 - $240.00/ hour
