Description About the role: Are you passionate about computer architecture and eager to launch your career in chip design? Join Ampere as an Entry-Level SoC Logic Design Engineer, where you'll have the opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge microarchitecture.
At Ampere, we build SoCs that power the future of AI computing. Our team embraces a start-up spirit-offering plenty of opportunities to learn, grow, and innovate. You'll work alongside experienced engineers and mentors who are excited to help you develop your skills in a collaborative, fun, and fast-paced environment. We value creativity, independence, and teamwork-and yes, we also enjoy lunchtime runs, gaming, bouldering, and even debating the best way to cut a doughnut!
What you'll achieve: - Jumpstart your career by helping develop and explore exciting micro-architectural features for our SoC designs, focusing on improving power, performance, area, and frequency
- Work closely with talented teams across verification, silicon engineering, architecture, and performance throughout the entire design process
- Learn directly from experienced engineers and gain valuable hands-on experience with RTL design and implementation
- Join design workgroups where your fresh ideas and unique perspective will help shape industry-leading hardware
- Collaboration with the architecture team to define and document microarchitecture, then bring those designs to life through RTL implementation for SoC blocks
- Get involved in integrating third-party IPs into SoC subsystems, expanding your understanding of complex system design
- Partnering with the design verification team to ensure the functionality and quality of design blocks
- Work alongside the silicon engineering team to support timing closure and other critical steps that bring designs to completion
About You: - Relevant internship or academic project experience in digital logic design, computer architecture, or related areas
- Familiarity with hardware description languages (such as SystemVerilog or VHDL) and a basic understanding of RTL design concepts
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail
- Eagerness to learn, collaborate, and grow in a dynamic team environment
- Good communication skills and the ability to explain technical concepts clearly
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
