Boise, United States Idaho Scientific Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

Director of FPGA and ASIC IP Products 

Life is Short. Solve Hard Problems with Cool People. 

Idaho Scientific is the Goldilocks of the spirit and growth of a startup, with a financial footing and safety of a stable corporation. The perks of working at Idaho Scientific include all the benefits you’d expect from an employer who prioritizes a balanced human experience: 

  • Competitive Pay 

  • Flexible Work Schedule  

  • Health Benefits and Insurance  

  • Free retirement fund contributions

Solve the Problem, Not the Symptom. 

The U.S. cannot afford to be reactive with national security. Traditional system security approaches do not scale, deter, or defended against motivated and sophisticated adversaries from undermining our military weapons systems. Proactive solutions to embedded security resolve the root of the vulnerability. The root of problem resides in flaws latent in processor, operating system, and software design.  

Idaho Scientific designs and deploys secure system solutions through novel CPU design, crypto cores, purpose-built system-on-a-chip architectures and hardened operating systems.  Our solutions are the foundation for how military systems will remain safe and secure in the conflicts of the future.  We need smart people like you to join us in solving hard problems that matter.
