Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Austin, TX

Design, train, optimize, and deploy efficient on-device ML models (audio and vision) for resource-constrained products; maintain Ambiq ADKs; port and optimize customer models; apply model-efficiency techniques; produce customer-facing demos, docs, and benchmarks.

Lead design and implementation of HAL, device drivers, RTOS ports, and test cases for NPU, DMA/DME, and memory subsystems. Support pre-/post-silicon bring-up, verification, performance optimization, debugging, and cross-team/customer support.

Lead development and testing of Ambiq's embedded graphics SDK and GPU HAL for MCU platforms. Design, implement, and maintain graphics APIs, GPU and display HALs; develop example apps and tests; perform pre-silicon FPGA verification, post-silicon bring-up, system validation, and hands-on debugging; support DV, field engineers, and customers.

Lead and scale the physical implementation organization for ultra-low-power MCU products. Define strategy, build and mentor teams, oversee full-chip and block-level physical design (floorplanning, power planning, CTS, P&R, timing closure, DRC/LVS, EM/IR signoff), collaborate cross-functionally, manage schedules and tape-out readiness, and ensure first-silicon success and manufacturability.

Lead timing methodology and closure for block and SoC levels in modern FinFET/multi-patterning processes. Define flows, constraints, signoff correlation, timing margining, glitch noise analysis, and collaborate with RTL, PnR, DFT, and post-silicon teams to achieve timing convergence and best-in-class PPA.

Lead transistor-level analog IC design from specification through layout, verification, prototype testing and production support. Define chip/block specs, architect circuits, supervise layout, run design reviews, interface with digital designers, develop manufacturing test plans, and support product, marketing, and applications engineering.

Lead software architecture for low-power Edge AI MCUs: define requirements, perform functional allocation, prototype, guide implementation and testing, optimize performance/power, enforce standards, and mentor engineers.

The Principal Engineer - RTL will oversee pre-tape out quality for digital SoC modules, lead architecture and micro-architecture development, and manage RTL development. Responsibilities include IP integration, collaboration with verification teams, and assisting in silicon validation.

Responsible for verifying digital and mixed-signal designs including systems-on-chip, developing test plans, automating testing, and collaborating with various teams to ensure design verification for low-power applications.

Lead the development of embedded software platforms for ARM Cortex-M MCUs, ensuring high-quality releases, mentoring teams, and driving cross-functional alignment.
