The company is a privately held fabless corporation based in Santa Clara, California and offers high-performance FPGA solutions. Their history is one of pushing the boundaries in the high-performance FPGA market. Offerings include programmable FPGA fabrics, discrete high-performance and high-density FPGAs with hardwired system-level blocks, data center and HPC hardware accelerator boards, and best-in-class EDA software supporting all products.

Job Description/Responsibilities

• Act as the technical lead in customer engagements, being the point-person for all technical issues, delegating and working with the engineering teams and other members of the Applications team as appropriate.
• Work with the Technical Project Manager (TPM) to jointly drive the technical and the management aspects of primarily new and on-going customer engagements.
• Ensure seamless hand-offs between factory applications and field engineering teams for all technical issues and deliverables that are a part of technical engagements.
• Provide support to customers worldwide, to resolve challenging technical issues and ensure successful integration of our programmable logic solutions.
• Work closely with engineering to drive product planning and implementation efforts. Provide guidance based on industry experiences and trends on product roadmaps and strategies.
• Put together reference/demo designs, other technical collateral like user guides and application notes to showcase and document FPGA features to customers.
• Provide on-site support to customers as needed, for issues ranging from software set-up to benchmarking and silicon characterization.
• Up to 25% travel may be required.


Required Skills

• Background in back-end (ASIC) implementation methodology, concepts and tools.
