Scientist | AI & Chip Design

We’re hiring teammates at the intersection of AI/ML and chip design – people who love building, move fast, and care about doing excellent work.

You’ll work at the boundary between our AI and hardware efforts to build systems that make chip design workflows better.

• Build and iterate on data generation (including synthetic data) for chip-design tasks
• Design robust evaluation methodology
• Integrate with hardware workflows
• Collaborate closely with engineers across AI + hardware + software, and own projects end‑to‑end

Bay Area (US) and Toronto (Canada)

In‑person (both offices have a vibrant, builder‑heavy culture)

• Baseline knowledge in both domains: AI/ML (familiarity with deep learning + data/model development) and chip design (basic understanding of circuit design and System Verilog implementations)
• Deep strength in at least one:
  Reinforcement learning (RL)
• Collaborative, takes initiative, can lead when needed

• Built a product or system that people used
• Made major contributions to a respected codebase / repo
• Done meaningful work in a high‑performing environment (such as top companies)
• Shipped a standout project end‑to‑end
• Strong publications—or similarly rigorous proof of ability
• Or anything else that clearly demonstrates you can execute at a very high level

• Founded startups and scaled them to IPO
• Led development of products used by millions
• Earned 23,000+ scientific citations
• Held leadership roles at places like Google, NVIDIA, Amazon, Synopsys, and more
• Won medals in international science Olympiads
