- Using simulation and formal tools (Verilator, Cocotb, etc.) for validation
- Working across teams (ASIC, software, infra) to co-design tightly coupled platforms
- Contributing to tooling, flow, and potentially DSL extensions
What We’re Looking For
- Strong RTL skills with experience building complex, optimised designs
- Programming skills, C, C++ or similar
- Solid grasp of timing closure, datapath design, and hardware-level performance tuning
- Familiar with toolchains (Vivado, Quartus) and debugging workflows
- Comfortable working close to hardware and owning the full development cycle
- Interest in improving hardware workflows or applying high-level techniques
Bonus
- Background in trading systems, signal processing, or networking
- Experience with formal verification and/or hardware DSLs
- Knowledge of FPGA-based networking acceleration
Why Join?
- Build from scratch with a team driving real strategy and architectural decisions
- Work across the full lifecycle, from concept to deployment
- Deep technical ownership, minimal overhead, and real impact
- Collaborate with top engineers in a no-bureaucracy culture
