Silicon Design Engineer
RTL and Microarchitecture

8–20 years · Kochi · Founding team  ·  IN CONVERSATIONS

The work

Register-level design of the security subsystems, and the microarchitecture decisions frozen at tape-out. You will argue about structure before writing a line of it, and live with the answer for a decade.

You would own

One or more major subsystems end to end — specification, RTL, micro-architectural trade-offs, and the interface contracts with everything around them.

Your first quarter

Reading the existing design and telling us what is wrong with it. Then taking a subsystem and owning it through to verification sign-off. We would rather your first month produced a good objection than a good commit.

We look for

Production RTL in silicon that shipped. Comfort with formal methods or the appetite to acquire it fast. Someone who has argued a microarchitecture decision against the room, turned out to be right, and can say how they knew.

Why it matters

Everything that ships is fixed at tape-out. This is where irreversibility lives.
