About the role
We are seeking a highly skilled and collaborative SoC Front-End Lead to spearhead the technical direction, micro-architecture, and logic design of our next-generation semiconductor products. In this role, you will bridge the gap between high-level architectural requirements and physical reality, managing the front-end execution from micro-architecture to netlist delivery.
What they're looking for
- Technical Leadership & Team Management: Lead, mentor, and scale the front-end design team. Set design methodology, coding standards, code-review processes, and execution timelines
- Micro-Architecture & Block Partitioning: Translate product requirements into detailed micro-architectural specifications. Own block partitioning, data flow, and interface standards across the chip front-end
- AI-Driven Design Automation: Evaluate, pilot, and deploy AI-powered design assistants and LLM copilots within the RTL generation, code review, and documentation workflows to accelerate design velocity
- Physical Closure Collaboration: Partner closely with physical design (back-end) teams to address timing constraints, area optimization, and floorplanning awareness early in the design cycle
- Silicon Bring-Up: Act as a key technical contact during post-silicon laboratory bring-up, debugging, and issue triage
- Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field
