# ASIC Architect

- **Company:** Arago
- **Location:** Courbevoie, France
- **Experience:** Expert
- **Contract:** Permanent contract
- **Skills:** Computing Platforms, Digital Technology, Multiprocessing, Systems Integration, Application Specific Integrated Circuits, Physical Design
- **Published:** September 5, 2026
- **Apply:** https://startup.jobs/senior-asic-architect-arago-8668026

## About the Role

* Proven track record in architecting complex, high-performance digital systems such as multicore processors, vector engines, and domain-specific accelerators.
 * Deep expertise in computer architecture, including memory hierarchies, interconnects, cache coherence, instruction set design, and performance-power-area trade-offs.
 * Hands-on experience with the design and integration of compute-intensive blocks such as vector arithmetic logic units (ALUs), SIMD pipelines, systolic arrays, and custom datapaths for signal or tensor processing.
 * Experience in leading full ASIC development cycles from architectural concept and modeling through RTL implementation, functional verification, physical design, and tape-out.
 * Experience with advanced system integration and packaging technologies such as HBM, chiplets, and 2.5D/3D integration, with a strong understanding of their architectural and system-level impact, is highly valued.
 * Strong leadership and communication skills, with the ability to align multidisciplinary teams (architecture, RTL, verification, software, and physical design) under a unified vision.

## Description

* Carry the top-level architecture of Arago's multiphysics compute platform, including processing elements, interconnects, memory subsystems, and system-level control.
 * Own the architectural vision from concept through tape-out, driving system modeling, specification, and implementation handoff across engineering teams.
 * Work and mentor cross-functional hardware teams across RTL design, functional verification, and physical integration to ensure consistent technical direction and execution quality.
 * Collaborate with software, packaging, and system integration teams to ensure architectural choices support overall platform scalability, performance, and reliability.
 * Evaluate new architectural directions, develop performance and cost models, and guide prototyping efforts to de-risk innovations for future product generations.
