Senior RTL Design 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 About the role
The RTL design team builds the compute datapath, on-chip network, and memory subsystems inside SambaNova's RDU AI accelerator. Their work spans microarchitecture through tape-out: RTL implementation, PPA trade-offs, quality gates like lint, CDC, and LEC, and timing closure with
