About the job
Acceler8 Talent is seeking Sr. Simulation Engineer to join an early-stage startup building the future of code transformation. Their platform enables seamless source-to-source transpilation, helping teams translate and optimize software across programming languages and domains. By combining deep expertise in compilers with modern AI-driven pipelines, they're unlocking powerful new ways to accelerate hardware and software development.
They're looking for a Hardware Modeling expert to help expand their core product into the world of AI-assisted hardware design and SystemC modeling. This is a unique opportunity to shape how advanced AI workflows integrate with EDA tools and chip design processes.
In this role, you'll:
- Collaborate with AI and software engineers to build agentic AI pipelines that generate and refine hardware models, from blocks to full SoCs
- Assess the quality and attributes of SystemC models (simulation speed, precision, and synthesizability)
- Integrate AI-driven modeling pipelines with industry-standard EDA tools for simulation, emulation and synthesis
This role may be ideal for you if you have:
- Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or related field
- 5+ years industry experience with SystemC modeling and simulation across block and SoC levels
- Deep understanding of modeling tradeoffs at various abstraction levels (analytical, TLM, cycle-accurate)
- Hands-on experience with Synopsys, Cadence or Siemens tools for modeling, HLS and simulation
- Knowledge of Verilog or VHDL
