Job Title: Director, HW Design
Job Location: Bangalore, India (This position requires a full-time, on-site presence in our Bangalore, India Office)
Job ID: AI2440
Job Description
We are seeking a Design Team Manager to lead our SoC design team in Bangalore. This is a hands-on leadership role responsible for managing and scaling a team of front-end SoC design engineers, driving execution across multiple projects, and collaborating with cross-functional teams across architecture, verification, physical design, firmware, and software.
You will play a pivotal role in defining, implementing, and delivering SiMa.ai’s next-generation MLSoC™ designs.
Areas Of Focus
Lead a high-performing team of SoC design engineers in areas such as RTL design, integration, and logic implementation.
Drive SoC and subsystem-level design and integration from concept to tape-out.
Collaborate closely with Architecture, Verification, Physical Design, and Firmware teams to deliver high-quality silicon.
Manage project planning, task allocation, and execution tracking to meet aggressive schedules.
Recruit, mentor, and develop engineering talent within the team.
Contribute to and enforce best practices in RTL development, verification-readiness, and documentation.
Participate in design and architecture reviews to ensure scalability, performance, and power-efficiency goals are met.
Coordinate with global teams across multiple locations for design convergence and alignment.
