Job description
- We are looking for a highly skilled RTL Designer to develop high-performance, scalable, and power-efficient digital designs for next-generation SoCs and Chiplets targeting AI, HPC, and Networking applications. This role requires deep expertise in RTL design, micro-architecture, and integration of high-speed interfaces, along with a strong focus on quality, performance, and first-time silicon success.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement high-quality RTL for complex SoC components and subsystems
- Own micro-architecture definition and execution for performance-critical blocks
- Develop designs that scale across IP, subsystem, and full SoC integration
- PCIe / CXL
- Ethernet (various speeds)
- UCIe (chiplet interconnects)
- Timing closure
- Power efficiency
- Area optimization
- Collaborate closely with architecture, DV, physical design, and firmware teams
- Drive design quality initiatives including lint, CDC, RDC, and formal verification
- Support emulation, prototyping, and silicon bring-up
- Contribute to building reusable design components and IPs across multiple programs
- Leverage automation and AI tools to improve RTL productivity and design quality
Requirements
- 12+ years of relevant experience in RTL design and micro-architecture
- Verilog/SystemVerilog
- Digital design fundamentals
- High-performance and low-power design techniques
- Experience designing for large SoCs in AI, HPC, or Networking domains
- Solid understanding of high-speed IO protocols: UCIe, PCIe, Ethernet
- Experience with multi-clock, high-bandwidth, and latency-sensitive designs
- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
- Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
- Experience with memory interfaces (DDR, HBM, LPDDR)
- Familiarity with coherency protocols and interconnect fabrics
- Exposure to synthesis, STA, and physical design constraints
- Experience with emulation or FPGA prototyping
- Working knowledge of scripting (Python, Tcl)

About TYLsemi
The Opportunity The AI infrastructure market is exploding. Every hyperscaler, every cloud provider, every AI company is building custom silicon. But they all face the same problem: how do you connect hundreds of chips, deliver clean power at scale, and move terabits of data without melting the package? That's what we solve. TYLsemi builds the chiplet infrastructure IP — the IO, power delivery, and interconnect building blocks — that makes AI/HPC systems actually work at scale. This isn't a nice-to-have. It's the critical path. Why Now The Market Window The semiconductor industry is going through its biggest architectural shift in 40 years: Moore's Law is dead. 2nm and beyond delivers marginal performance gains. The future is chiplets, not monolithic dies. Custom silicon is now mainstream. Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, OpenAI — they're all designing their own ASICs. The $50B custom silicon market is growing 30% annually. IO and power are the bottleneck. Solve hard problems and provide something which is a category in itself. Translation: We're entering the market at exactly the moment when every major AI/HPC player needs what we're building, and their alternatives are disappearing. No Politics, No Bureaucracy There are no layers, no approval chains, no corporate theater. If you have an idea, we test it. If it works, we ship it. No endless meetings, no PowerPoint presentations to convince middle management. Remote-Friendly, Global Team US team: Bay Area preferred, but we hire the best people regardless of location India team: Building a world-class design center in Bangalore Move Fast, Ship Real Products We're not a research project. We have paying customers, committed capital, and aggressive timelines. This is a company, not a lifestyle business. We're building to win. Ownership mindset. You're not here to execute someone else's roadmap. You're here to define it. Bias for action. We move fast. Analysis paralysis doesn't fly here. Deep technical expertise. This is hard engineering. We need people who've shipped real silicon and debugged real hardware. Low ego, high standards. We don't care about titles or politics. We care about results.
