- Early estimation of area, timing, performance and power to guide architecture trade-offs
- Defining the HW/SW boundary for chips supporting diverse workloads
- Shaping product, technology and hiring alongside the founding team
What we are looking for
- Chip architecture experience across multiple types of chip (essential)
- Track record leading chips through to tape-out (essential)
- Strong knowledge of the full design flow, from architecture to physical design (essential)
