AI SoC Hardware Architect

Grow with us AI SoC Hardware Architect The Architect Who Closes the Gap. The Engineer Who Makes Silicon Inevitable. Location: Austin, TX Team: Cross-functional leadership across Model Engineering, AI Infrastructure, and Silicon Architecture The Problem Nobody Else Is Solving Most chip programs are full of brilliant people who never quite speak the same language. Researchers build ambitious AI models. Silicon teams build powerful hardware. Infrastructure teams wire it all together. And somewhere in the space between those three worlds — in the handoffs, the assumption gaps, the untranslated requirements — massive performance dies quietly on the floor. We're not hiring someone to manage that problem. We're hiring the person who architects it out of existence. The Role As Principal AI Hardware Architect, you will own the most consequential technical contract in the company: the binding agreement between what AI workloads demand, what software systems can express, and what custom silicon can physically deliver. This is not a support role. This is not a liaison role. This is the highest-leverage engineering seat in the building — the person who looks at a next-generation LLM, a multimodal inference pipeline, or a signal processing workload and answers the question that determines whether a chip program succeeds or settles: "Here's exactly what this workload needs from silicon — and here's the proof it will work before we ever tape out." Your decisions won't live in documents. They'll be etched into hardware. Your performance models will guide compute investments. Your architectural direction will shape memory hierarchies. Your cross-team alignment will determine whether the company builds capable hardware — or hardware nobody else can touch. What You'll Own Workload - to- Architecture Translation. Analyze workload specific testcases taailored to real worlld applications using LLM's, multi modal systems, signal processing pipelines, inference engines - and translate them
