Design Verification Engineer
SambaNova is a leader in next-generation AI infrastructure, delivering a full-stack inference platform for customers worldwide. At the core of SambaNova's technology is the RDU (Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit) — a chip built on a dataflow architecture rather than the traditional GPU model. Its decode performance is especially strong for agentic workloads like multi-turn agents, code generation, and long-running applications. RDUs are packaged into SambaRack, rack-scale hardware that lets customers deploy state-of-the-art models with better performance, greater energy efficiency, and faster time to value.
About the team
The Design Verification team works on the RDU, SambaNova's chip for machine learning and AI workloads. This group focuses on chip-level control and initialization: sequencing, state transitions, clocking, and recovery across multiple subsystems on the chip. You'll build SystemVerilog and UVM verification environments alongside architects, RTL designers, and firmware engineers, and take ownership of verification plans from first draft through closure. The team works closely with the broader verification organization, so debugging and root-causing issues often means coordinating across groups rather than working in isolation.<
