Principal / Senior Staff / Staff CPU Design Engineer

Principal / Senior Staff / Staff ASIC Design Engineer (RISC-V)

Client Overview

Client is building the first latency optimized SoC for their industry. Using its proven AI accelerator designs, Client is targeting best in class latency with order of magnitude improvements for years to come.

Low Latency has become the key enabler for the industry and other real-time application and the current industry’ state-of-the art is just not up to the task. Client has been developing its Neural Net Engines accelerators, optimizing it for Latency and achieving the best LPPA (Latency, Performance, Power, Area) in the field. We are now building the corresponding SoC, to deliver unrivaled products to mission-critical and real-time applications.

This is a fast-paced, intellectually challenging position, and you will work with a talented team driven by innovation and excellency. You’ll have relentlessly high standards for yourself and everyone you work with, and you’ll be constantly looking for ways to improve our products' performance, quality and cost.

We’re changing the meaning of low latency and we want individuals ready to rise up to the challenge and take the industry by storm.
