About MatX

We make the best chips physically possible for the large model needs of frontier labs.

About the role

Build production hardware for compute, memory management, and high-speed connectivity Develop reusable, parameterized Bluespec libraries that scale across the chip

What they're looking for

  • Proficient in Haskell — you're comfortable with monads, typeclasses, higher-order functions, and do-notation. You understand why return injects a value into a monadic context and what Bluespec Haskell (BH)
  • Strong engineering fundamentals — you write clean, well-tested, well-documented code and are comfortable with build systems, version control, and CI workflows
  • Existing experience with Bluespec
  • Prior hardware design experience — ASIC or FPGA. If you already understand clock domains, pipelining, state machines, synthesis, and timing closure, that's a significant advantage
  • Production Rust experience. If you know Haskell, Rust is easy, but if you've already used it on something real, that's a head start
More about this role

MatX is seeking engineers with strong Haskell skills to join our team as we create best-in-class silicon for high-performance and sustainable GenAI. The successful candidate for this role will be responsible for delivering performant silicon RTL at the full-chip or subsystem level.

You will write hardware in Bluespec , a hardware description language rooted in Haskell's type system and semantics. If you've ever wished you could design hardware with the composability and correctness guarantees of a modern functional language, this is the role for you. You do not need prior hardware experience to apply — if you know Haskell, we will teach you the hardware side.
