ChipAgents is building next-generation software for chip design and verification. Our platform accelerates RTL design, simulation, and verification workflows, helping engineers ship silicon faster. We're a Series A company backed by tier-1 VC firms, deployed at dozens of billion-dollar companies. You'll be working alongside our world-class AI research team and chip designers, and join our software team in developing products end-to-end.
We are seeking a Software Engineer with strong programming fundamentals. You'll build customer-facing features, backend systems, and cloud infrastructure. This role involves solving complex technical problems, debugging production issues, and shipping high-quality software that powers products used by leading semiconductor companies.
Build and maintain backend services and platform infrastructure for the ChipAgents platform.
Write clean, well-typed code with strong attention to software design principles.
Debug and troubleshoot production issues across distributed systems and cloud environments.
Architect and deploy cloud infrastructure using IaC, manage networking and security, and provisioning on-prem physical hardware.
Collaborate with product, research, and customer success teams to deliver high-quality solutions.
Maintain system reliability and contribute to engineering best practices.
Support customer deployments and integrations, providing technical guidance and solutions.
B.S. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
Experience building and shipping production software.
Strong programming fundamentals with proficiency in statically-typed languages (TypeScript, Java, Go, or similar).
Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and understanding of distributed systems.
Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software design principles.
Proven ability to debug complex issues and write maintainable, well-typed code.
Experience with backend systems, APIs, and infrastructure tooling.
Experience designing systems for scalability, reliability, and performance in production environments.
Demonstrated ability to lead technical projects end-to-end, from ambiguous problem statements to shipped solutions.
Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively with customers, product teams, and cross-functional stakeholders.
Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation).
Familiarity with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).
Understanding of DevOps practices and deployment workflows.
Experience working in fast-paced startup environments.
Prior experience in EDA, semiconductor, or technical B2B software.
Work on cutting-edge technology that is transforming semiconductor design.
Collaborate with a world-class team of AI researchers, engineers, and industry veterans.
Build robust infrastructure and backend systems that power products used by leading chip companies.
Make a direct impact on mission-critical software deployed in production at scale.
$150K/yr – $350K/yr + Offers Equity. We are open to discuss above-scale compensation with exceptional candidates on a case-by-case basis.
Unlimited PTO and full benefits (medical, vision, dental, 401k).
