Job Description
About the Role We are seeking an experienced candidate to lead the miniaturisation of our cutting-edge probabilistic computing platform. This role is to own the ASIC architecture of Quantum Dice 's probabilistic computing processor end-to-end: from algorithm and ISA through partitioning, microarchitecture, and tape-out. Key Responsibilities Requirements analysis System-level and algorithm understanding, HW/SW co-design: arithmetic implementation in hardware. Analysis of programmability, fixed functions, hardware implementation, and host requirements. Functional simulation & building models to drive architectural decisions. System-level architecture & ISA definition: turn workloads into system architecture and instruction set architecture / dataflow models. Trade-off analysis (timing, power, area), own partitioning with physical design awareness Detailed specifications for microarchitectures: RTL requirements definition Memory hierarchy On-chip and inter-chip connectivity Interfacing (analogue domain and software) Overseeing internal IP development & 3rd party IP evaluation Lead the design through verification, signoff, tape-out and bring-up. Required qualifications Architectural ownership of >= 1 ASIC taken to successful tape-out (preferably compute accelerator, inference engine, DSP) Hands-on performance modelling (in Python, C++ or equivalent), trade-off analysis & simulation which drove your architectural decisions. Industry tool flow experience (e.g. Synopsys, Cadence, or Siemens) Solid grasp of timing, power and area trade-offs at the architectural level. Experience defining HW/SW interfaces and working with firmware/compiler teams Strong RTL design experience & defined verification strategies on architectural level Why Join Us? You’ll be at the forefront of next-generation computing, shaping a platform that redefines performance and efficiency. This is an opportunity to lead innovation in a rapidly evolving field.
