Job Summary

Normal Computing Incredible Opportunities

The Normal Team builds foundational software and hardware that help move technology forward - supporting the semiconductor industry critical AI infrastructure and the broader systems that power our world. We work as one team across New York San Francisco Copenhagen Seoul and London.

Your Role in Our Mission:

You will define and implement architecture and microarchitecture for novel compute blocks at Normal Computing. This role requires both architectural thinking and hands-on RTL implementationyoull work closely with architecture and research teams to translate high-level specifications into efficient hardware designs then carry those designs through verification and physical implementation.

This is a role for engineers who are comfortable operating in ambiguity where requirements and architectures evolve as we explore the design space. You should be equally capable of writing clean RTL reasoning about architectures and collaborating with physical design teams to ensure your designs can be built efficiently in silicon.

Responsibilities:

Define architecture and microarchitecture for novel compute blocks collaborating closely with architecture and research teams
Write high-quality RTL in SystemVerilog for core logic datapaths and control structures
Work with DV team on digital verification for assigned designs including testbench development debugging coverage and signoff
Work closely with physical design engineers to ensure RTL is implementable performant and aligned with layout constraints
Contribute to functional or performance models to support early exploration validation and design tradeoff analysis
Participate in design reviews verification reviews and cross-functional debug from concept through silicon
Help shape internal RTL and verification methodologies in a fast-moving startup environment

What Makes You A Great Fit:

BS MS or PhD in Electrical / Electronic Engineering Computer Engineering Computer Science or a related field
3 years of experience in digital logic design with meaningful ownership of blocks or subsystems
Strong proficiency in SystemVerilog for RTL design and verification
Experience designing compute cores accelerators or similarly complex logic
Hands-on experience with digital verification including testbench development debugging and coverage-driven validation
Ability to work closely with physical design and verification teams to ensure correct implementable designs
Comfort operating in an R&D-focused ambiguous environment where architecture RTL and verification evolve together

Bonus Points For:

Experience with CDC/RDC analysis and mitigation in complex clocking or asynchronous designs
Familiarity with modern verification methodologies and open source verification tools (UVM Cocotb etc.)
Experience with formal or semi-formal verification techniques (FPV assertions property checking)
Prior work integrating third-party or internal IP into larger compute systems
Experience building or improving verification flows infrastructure or automation
Background in functional or performance modelling to support architecture exploration or validation
