fab2 builds the hardware and software needed to make chips, fabs, tools, and components. Backed by Eclipse Ventures.
About the role
Fullstack, Rust end-to-end, working on the application itself. You will own major features from design through shipping and touch the whole stack. These are some of the problems on the table right now: Deeply interactive, low-latency editing tools: drag a wire and watch it auto-route, place a block, measure, annotate, catch mistakes the instant they happen. Careful handling, some algorithms and computational geometry. We need to constantly fight to keep the tools simple.
What they're looking for
- Strong Rust, or serious C++/systems experience and the obvious curiosity to go deep in Rust
- Solid systems fundamentals: memory, performance, concurrency. You profile before you optimize. You've taken something slow and made it fast, and you can tell us about why it was slow
- A track record of non-trivial software you built from scratch and can walk us through end to end. The weird side project, engine, or tool you wrote because the existing one annoyed you
More about this role
The fab2 team can build anything. We design all the hardware and software needed to make chips and we make the fabs, tools, and components ourselves.
We're looking for exceptional, hands-on people who can iterate to the limits of what's possible.
fab2 was founded by Sam Zeloof and Jim Keller . Sam is best known for making chips in his garage, and Jim has been a leader in the semiconductor industry for the past 40 years.
We are building the software that silicon chip designers should have had 20 years ago.
Designing a chip today means stitching together a pile of desktop software, much of it decades old. We have a lot of respect for those tools, but in many ways they are behind. They've carried the industry this far, but we see enormous room to do better. For example: real version control, real collaboration, and interfaces that give you intuition rather than requiring it. We've concluded that we must build a lot of it from scratch. Studio is a fast, browser-based, multiplayer platform for designing and assembling whole chips. Figma plus GitHub, for silicon. The primary goal is simple: a user should never have to install anything or leave our app to take a chip from idea to...
