Description
We at Codasip are happy to announce we are growing our HW Design teams with professional enthusiasts. If you want to join a team where each clock cycle matters, where each signal toggles for good reasons, and where there are always ideas to do better, faster, and safer, be welcome. We are expanding our Portfolio of processor soft IPs and accelerators IPs to address the increasing demand for performance at low power in the RISC-V ecosystem.
What is unique at Codasip is our approach to design to speed up the development and leverage HW & SW co-design: we use our increasingly adopted architecture description language CodAL.
Together with our well-organized and highly collaborative international teams, located in the Czech Republic, the UK, Germany, France, Greece and Spain, you will be responsible for the development of the core or of the accelerator microarchitecture.
Requirements
KEY QUALIFICATIONS:
- Engineering degree or equivalent
- Good knowledge of modern CPU architectures (ideally RISC-V) and micro-architectures, or alternatively track of records in the design of complex pipelined designs.
- Advanced knowledge of at least one Hardware Description Language (preferably – Verilog/SystemVerilog)
- Sharp understanding of physical implications when designing at a higher level of abstraction (digital design synthesis and implementation flow).

WHO IS CODASIP:
Codasip was founded on a simple belief – we could bring together the brilliance of microprocessor architects and software engineers and capture it in tools that make design simpler, faster, and less expensive. The company was created in 2014 with the mission of democratizing processor design by utilizing our own CodAL architecture description language.
Nowadays Codasip is a leading supplier of processing solutions for IC designers, offering products based on open standards such as the RISC-V ISA, LLVM and UVM. We are a founding member of RISC-V International (formerly RISC-V Foundation) and we were the first company to offer a commercial RISC-V IP core in 2015. With more than 200 employees and offices in Europe, US and China, we are constantly open for talents who want to work on cutting-edge processor technologies, believe in the great potential of RISC-V.
We’re passionate about RISC-V processors. If you are, too – do not hesitate to apply 🙂
