Job Description:

We are seeking a highly experienced ASIC Networking Architect to join our architecture team and help us drive the next-generation networking ASICs. This role requires deep technical expertise in computer architecture, high-speed networking protocols, and silicon design methodologies. The ideal candidate will work cross-functionally with system architects, software, and hardware teams to develop innovative, high-performance ASIC solutions for switching, and datacenter connectivity.

Job Responsibility:

Architecture Definition: Develop the micro-architecture and high-level design of networking ASICs, ensuring alignment with product goals, performance targets, and industry standards
Networking Protocols & Technologies: Design ASICs that support Ethernet (200G/400G/800G+), Programmability, and AI-driven networking enhancements
Computer Architecture & Memory Subsystems: Optimize packet processing pipelines, caching strategies, memory architectures (HBM, DDR, TCAM, SRAM), and interconnect fabrics for high-bandwidth, low-latency performance
ASIC Design Collaboration: Work with logic design, verification, and physical design teams to ensure smooth RTL implementation, synthesis, timing closure, and signoff
Performance Analysis & Optimization: Use simulation and emulation tools to model ASIC performance, validate system throughput, and optimize power/performance trade-offs
Security & Reliability Features: Implement security mechanisms such as MACSec, IPsec, and deep packet inspection for trusted networking solutions
Industry Trends & Future Technologies: Stay ahead of advancements in disaggregated networking, hardware acceleration (DPUs, SmartNICs), AI-driven networking, and software-defined infrastructure to influence long-term ASIC roadmaps
Technical Leadership: Drive architectural innovation and mentor engineers in design methodologies, ASIC lifecycle best practices, and system integration challenges
Influence Business decisions: Leverages recognized domain expertise, business acumen, and experience to influence decisions of executive business leadership, outsourced development partners, and industry standards groups

Requirements:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Computer Science. Ph.D. is a plus
Minimum 10+ years in ASIC architecture, with a focus on networking, computing, or high-performance data processing
Strong Background in: Computer Architecture: Multicore processing, memory hierarchy optimizations, hardware-software co-design
Networking Protocols: Ethernet, TCP/IP, BGP, MPLS, VXLAN, QoS, congestion control mechanisms
ASIC Development Lifecycle: RTL design (Verilog/SystemVerilog), verification methodologies (UVM), synthesis, P&R constraints, and tape-out experience
High-Speed Interfaces: PCIe Gen6, SerDes, CXL, HBM integration
Security & Virtualization: Hardware acceleration for secure packet processing, hypervisor optimizations, and virtual network functions
Leadership & Collaboration Skills: Experience working with cross-functional teams spanning hardware, software, and systems
Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities with a track record of delivering complex ASIC projects

Nice to have:

Experience with programmable pipelines and network switch SoCs
Prior involvement in datacenter-scale networking
Hands-on knowledge of AI/ML accelerators for networking workloads
Contributions to IETF/IEEE standards committees

What we offer:

Health & Wellbeing: We strive to provide our team members and their loved ones with a comprehensive suite of benefits that supports their physical, financial and emotional wellbeing
Personal & Professional Development: We also invest in your career because the better you are, the better we all are. We have specific programs catered to helping you reach any career goals you have — whether you want to become a knowledge expert in your field or apply your skills to another division
