We're looking for a senior Software engineer to own a core slice of our product's EDA tooling — spanning data modelling, connectivity/encapsulation flows, and AI capabilities we're building directly into the product. You'll step into an area with real customer-facing impact and significant technical depth, working across the full stack from low-level handling of industry standard collaterals to modern AI-based product architectures.
Product Data Model — our physical-aware data model that powers the product, triaging and resolving customer-reported issues and driving flow improvements.
Product Tooling (Connectivity & Encapsulation) — supporting and enhancing core connectivity/encapsulation tooling within the product, including testing, and enhancing encapsulation flows in the context of proteanTecs' agents.
AI Solutions — joining the team that builds and grows AI capabilities as part of the product, from architecture through deployment.
Acting as a go-to technical resource for customers and internal teams on the above.
Requirements
5–10 years of experience in semiconductor engineering, ideally with exposure to EDA (Electronic Design Automation) tools, semiconductor design flows, or similar hardware-adjacent domains.
Strong software engineering fundamentals — Python and/or C++, with the ability to work in complex, long-lived codebases.
Experience with hardware description/design formats such as Verilog, LEF/DEF, SDC, or UPF is a strong plus.
Familiarity with building or integrating AI/LLM-based tooling is a significant plus.
Comfort owning customer-facing bugs and field issues end-to-end — from triage to root cause to fix.
Strong written and verbal communication skills; you'll be a primary point of contact for both customers and internal teams on your areas of ownership.
Self-directed and comfortable operating with ambiguity — much of the AI work is greenfield and evolving quickly.
Nice to have
Prior experience in chip design, physical verification, or power analysis workflows.
Experience building developer tools, CLIs, or SDKs.
Track record of taking a project from prototype to production deployment.
