Chip Design Engineer

Annapurna Labs, an Amazon team, designs and delivers high‑end, custom silicon at the heart of AWS. Our chips don't just support the cloud; they define it. From Trainium, the purpose‑built ML accelerator driving the next wave of AI innovation, to Graviton, the Arm‑based server processor redefining price‑performance for compute workloads, to Nitro, the advanced network and cloud management controller that underpins every AWS instance — Annapurna's products set the standard for the industry.

• Take an active, hands‑on role in developing the next generation of the Nitro platform.
• Own critical IP blocks end‑to‑end — from architecture through tape‑out.
• Collaborate with a world‑class, fast‑moving design team and see your work deployed at a scale no other platform can match, powering hundreds of thousands of businesses across 190 countries.

As a Chip Design Engineer on the Nitro team, you will take full end‑to‑end ownership of one or more critical IP blocks within the product, guiding them from micro‑architecture definition through RTL design, debug, synthesis, timing closure, and final sign‑off before tape‑out. Your work will ship in silicon that powers AWS at global scale.

You’ll partner closely with the Verification and Emulation teams to shape test plans, review coverage, and close gaps early in the design cycle. Beyond your own IP, you’ll collaborate across disciplines with Product Definition, Software, Physical Design, and Verification teams to deliver a fully integrated, production‑ready chip.

• B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
• 5+ years of experience in Chip Design.
• Experience working with data paths.

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science or equivalent.
• Experience with large‑scale IPs (millions of gates).
• Experience with a full design cycle – RTL, Verification, Synthesis, timing closure, CDC, and lint.
• Experience with networking layers.
