Careers
Build EDA tools that help bring
the next generation of silicon to production.
AQLS is a small team of chip design engineers and EDA engineers who would rather build the right tool than write another spec. If that sounds like a fit, we would like to hear from you.
What We Look For
Three things we always come back to.
Build what we would use
Every tool we ship has to be something a chip team would actually use under schedule pressure. If it would not be useful on our own desks, it does not ship.
Engineers ship
Small teams, real ownership, fast iteration. We are not a giant where decisions get lost in committees.
Be honest about hard problems
SoC design is hard. We prefer engineers who say what is broken, instead of pretending it is fine.
Where We Hire
Areas where we often hire.
Even when there is no public posting, we are happy to talk to strong candidates in any of these areas.
EDA Software Engineering
C++, Python, performance, and visualization work across our tool suite.
Silicon Architecture
SoC architecture, performance modeling, and HW/SW co-design.
Verification & Sign-Off
Front-end verification, sign-off methodologies, and customer enablement.
Customer Engineering
Helping chip teams adopt our tools in their existing flows.

How To Apply
Send us a short note.
We do not run a heavy application portal. Drop us a short email — what you have built or shipped, what you would like to work on next, and any links that show your work. We read every message and reply personally.
