About the role:As a member of Tensordyne's ASIC team, you will be responsible for the microarchitecture and design implementation of high-performance AI ASICs. These ASICs closely couple novel computational accelerator units, compute, interconnects, networking and 3rd-party IP blocks as needed to redefine the next generation of tokenomics for inference.
Your responsibilities will be wide-ranging and span at minimum the following:
Responsibilities:- Work with architecture on reconciling changes with respect to micro-architecture
- Define microarchitecture and document
- Select and integrate 3rd-party IP blocks
- Collaborate with design verification engineers
- Run, analyse frontend synthesis and address all issues
- Collaborate with backend teams on place-and-route guidance and timing closure
- Ability to leverage GenAI usage across all workflows, while retaining ownership and quality of all generated collateral
Required Qualifications:- 3+ years of ASIC design experience with a demonstrable track record of RTL logic design in multi-million gate ASICs with Verilog or System Verilog.
- Experience in IP integration, specifically CPU IP into SoC.
- Knowledge of ARM/RISC-V/MIPS Architectures, Memory hierarchy, Cache coherency, Virtual memory, Multicore CPU operation
- Familiarity with AMBA/APB/AXI Protocol
- Familiarity with processor peripheral interfaces like SPI, eMMC, *MII, GPIO, I2C ....
- Hands-on experience in all aspects of the ASIC development process with proficiency in front-end tools and methodologies.
- Familiarity with low power design. UPF flow for defining power intent of chips with multiple power domains
- Previous experience with timing closure at high frequencies is a plus.
- Interest to explore AI architectures for convolution, transformer and other kinds of workloads
- Self-starter and highly-motivated to work in a dynamic start-up environment.
- B.S. (M.S. preferred) degree in Electrical or Computer engineering.
Tensordyne's culture was built on the following values that are equally important to us as business:
- Put people first. We only succeed when our people succeed.
- Ethics and integrity always; Being open, honest, and respectful of everyone.
- Think Big. Be ambitious and have audacious goals.
- Aim for excellence. Quality and excellence count in everything we do.
- Own it and get it done. Results matter!
- Make Each Person Better together than they would be as an individual.
- Embrace each others' differences.
- Embrace that there will be differences.
