Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Vancouver

Lead semiconductor design efforts spanning SoC architecture, RTL, circuits, IP, interfaces, integration, verification, and product lifecycle. Translate system requirements into designs while analyzing timing, power, area, reliability, and technical tradeoffs. Debug issues, conduct root-cause analysis, review technical deliverables, drive design reuse and automation, and coordinate with architecture, verification, DFT, implementation, package, product, test, manufacturing, and CAD teams. Maintain specifications, design records, and lifecycle documentation.

Lead hardware and firmware co-verification for SoC devices across architectural exploration, pre-silicon emulation, and post-silicon validation. Responsibilities include porting RTL to Cadence emulators and FPGA platforms, developing emulation hardware, firmware, tests, and automation, troubleshooting embedded multi-core systems, analyzing protocols, tracking defects, and presenting technical findings. The role requires expertise in digital design, serial protocols, PCIe, Linux, embedded systems, and programming or scripting.

Leads the technical design and implementation of communication semiconductor devices and digital circuits. Manages and mentors engineering teams, coordinates architects and cross-functional partners, drives project completion, improves design flows, and supports production-ready silicon development. Responsibilities include Verilog or VHDL-based design, synthesis, verification, debugging, and collaboration across software, validation, and production engineering teams.

Lead customer platform enablement for PCIe switch products, support hyperscale and storage customers from board bring-up through production, debug hardware/firmware/system issues, develop reference designs and tools, deliver trainings, mentor engineers, and collaborate cross‑functionally to optimize system performance and reliability.

Develops and executes silicon and system validation plans for PCIe switches and NVMe controllers. Diagnoses hardware and software issues, builds test automation tools, debugs prototype ICs and boards, conducts lab investigations, reports defects, and collaborates with cross-functional teams. The role also leads complex test execution and mentors junior engineers.

Lead physical design and ASIC implementation for high-performance SoCs, including floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis, physical verification, synthesis, and static timing. Support chip-level, subsystem, CPU, and mixed-signal blocks while collaborating with CAD, packaging, design, operations, customers, and global teams. Develop digital wrappers, test structures, and scripting flows, troubleshoot implementation issues, guide team members, and support advanced semiconductor methodologies.

Design, verify, emulate, debug, integrate, bring up, and validate digital ASICs and SoCs for storage and memory controllers. Work across block-, top-, and solution-level development, applying knowledge of SoCs, protocols, and standards. Responsibilities include pre-silicon verification, post-silicon validation, IP and solution debugging, and supporting products through production.

Design complex digital integrated circuits at block, subsystem, and device levels using Verilog and SystemVerilog. Define features and implementation details, support emulation and ASIC validation, debug laboratory issues, and develop logic modifications. Collaborate with distributed design, verification, and architecture teams to resolve technical problems and evaluate implementation trade-offs. Apply ASIC simulation, synthesis, timing analysis, physical design, protocol, and low-power methodology knowledge.

Characterize and optimize high-speed SERDES interfaces across process, voltage, and temperature extremes. Develop automated Python test scripts, custom firmware, PCBs, and laboratory hardware for electrical compliance testing. Analyze and debug mixed-signal circuits, identify root causes of failures, and recommend design improvements. Prepare characterization plans and technical reports while collaborating with mixed-signal designers on next-generation connectivity products.

Leads customer platform enablement for PCIe switch products across data-center and AI systems. Responsibilities include defining technical requirements, supporting board bring-up and production release, debugging hardware, firmware, and system issues, developing technical collateral and software tools, delivering training, mentoring engineers, and collaborating with customers and cross-functional teams. The role also requires customer-site travel for system debugging, deployment support, and product integration.
