- New York, NY or San Francisco, CA A stealth-mode AI hardware startup is turning breakthrough research in low-latency large-language-model inference into purpose-built silicon. After proving the concept in software and FPGA, the company is racing toward first-generation ASIC silicon and needs a hands-on executive to lead the charge. As VP Hardware Engineering, you will own the entire chip program from architecture to post-silicon bring-up, while shaping a world-class engineering organization that can scale with explosive customer demand. If you thrive on building new technology, attracting top talent, and delivering audacious roadmaps at startup speed, this is your once-in-a-career seat at the table. Define the architectural vision for a data-center-class AI inference accelerator and translate it into a scalable ASIC implementation. Build, mentor, and inspire a high-performance hardware engineering organization, spanning digital design, verification, physical implementation, packaging, and systems. Partner closely with applied-AI and software teams on hardware–software co-design that maximizes tokens-per-second and minimizes latency for LLM workloads. drive technical diligence and risk reduction. Represent hardware engineering in executive planning, customer briefings, and investor discussions. Team built – A cohesive, mission-driven silicon organization with clear ownership, processes, and recruiting pipeline. Customer impact – Demonstrated order-of-magnitude throughput improvements for early design-partner deployments. 10+ years designing high-performance custom silicon for compute-intensive workloads; Deep familiarity with memory hierarchies, high-bandwidth interconnects (PCIe, CXL, or similar), and accelerator-class power-performance trade-offs. ~ Prior experience converting FPGA prototypes into production silicon is highly valued. ~ Proven ability to recruit, develop, and lead multidisciplinary engineering teams in fast-moving startup or new-business environments. ~ Excellent communication and executive-level storytelling skills; Equity: Founder-level grant with significant upside tied to first-silicon and market-adoption milestones.
