Bluespec Design Engineer

MatX is seeking engineers with strong Haskell skills to join their team as they create best-in-class silicon for high-performance and sustainable GenAI. The successful candidate will be responsible for delivering performant silicon RTL and will write hardware in Bluespec, leveraging their Haskell knowledge to design hardware with composability and correctness guarantees. Responsibilities Build production hardware for compute, memory management, and high-speed connectivity Develop reusable, parameterized Bluespec libraries that scale across the chip Shape hardware architecture by leveraging the power of Bluespec to explore implementation tradeoffs and converge on the best designs Create innovative tooling for our hardware/software ecosystem to help us build correct, high-performance hardware faster Skills Proficient in Haskell — you're comfortable with monads, typeclasses, higher-order functions, and do-notation You understand why return injects a value into a monadic context and what <- does in a do-block Strongly willing to quickly ramp on Bluespec Haskell (BH) Strong engineering fundamentals — you write clean, well-tested, well-documented code and are comfortable with build systems, version control, and CI workflows Existing experience with Bluespec Prior hardware design experience — ASIC or FPGA. If you already understand clock domains, pipelining, state machines, synthesis, and timing closure, that's a significant advantage Production Rust experience. If you know Haskell, Rust is easy, but if you've already used it on something real, that's a head start Benefits A Stake in our success A cash/equity mix that fits your needs and option to do early exercise Company subsidized Health, Dental, Vision, and Life insurance; Pre-tax Health Savings Accounts with generous company contribution (even if you don’t) 4 weeks paid time off (accrued), 12 company holidays, and 3 weeks remote/flexible work per year Up to 12 weeks of paid parental leave, regardless of your path to parenthood $1,500 yearly towards your professional development e.g. conferences, courses, and other learning opportunities Team Lunches, quarterly off-sites, and regular town halls 401K and/or Roth IRA, with 5% company contribution, even if you don’t!
