TL;DR · Applied AI Engineer

The Applied AI Engineer joins the Silicon Co-Design Group to innovate, develop, and integrate AI solutions into the design and automation infrastructure for chips. You will architect and implement systems to enhance workflow efficiency, specifically designing LLM-powered validation pipelines for post-silicon validation across semiconductor environments. Responsibilities include cross-team AI integration, technology scouting, and building data systems to measure AI impact. Required skills include a degree in CS, EE, or CE, with experience building ML systems, data-intensive backend services, and Python. You must also possess proficiency in C, C++, C#, Java, or Scala, alongside EE fundamentals like computer architecture and hardware interaction. The role involves solving technical problems in silicon development, chip characterization, and debugging complex hardware-software interactions using tools like PyTorch, TensorFlow, and LangChain.

What you'll do

  • Design and deploy AI systems to make post-silicon validation faster and more scalable.
  • Build AI-powered workflows and intelligent automation systems from prototype to production.
  • Identify friction points in multi-functional engineering workflows and build AI solutions to eliminate them.
  • Evaluate and scout emerging AI frameworks and architectures for potential adoption.
  • Build data systems to establish quantitative indicators of AI impact and performance.
  • Translate innovative AI research into practical, high-impact production tools.
  • Debug complex system-level issues involving hardware and software interactions.

What we're looking for

  • BS, MS, or PhD in CS, EE, CE, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience building and deploying ML/AI systems or data-intensive backend services.
  • 2+ years of direct Applied AI experience independently owning an AI agent, LLM-powered workflow, or intelligent automation system end-to-end.
  • Strong Python skills and proficiency in at least one static language such as C, C++, C#, Java, or Scala.
  • Proven track record with deploying, monitoring, and debugging scalable AI/ML models.
  • Strong EE fundamentals including computer architecture, high-speed interfaces, timing, power basics, and firmware/driver structures.
  • Experience working within a silicon development environment with exposure to chip and system characterization methodologies.
  • Hands-on experience with silicon bring-up, characterization, or lab debug using standard tools like oscilloscopes and logic analyzers.
