ASIC Design and Verification Engineers: Specialized Supercomputers for Computational Biochemistry

Extraordinarily gifted ASIC design, physical design, and verification engineers are sought to join a New York–based interdisciplinary research group that is developing special-purpose supercomputers designed in part to fundamentally transform the process of drug discovery.

This project aims to combine an innovative, massively parallel architecture incorporating 45-nanometer “system on a chip” ASICs with novel mathematical techniques and groundbreaking algorithmic advances in computational biochemistry to direct unprecedented computational power toward the solution of key scientific and technical problems in the field of molecular design.

The candidates we seek will be unusually intelligent and accomplished, with a demonstrated ability to design and implement, and/or verify complex, high-performance hardware solutions based on the latest semi-custom technologies.  Particularly relevant areas of expertise might include parallel computation, high-speed interconnection networks, digital systems simulation, and high-speed ASIC design.  We are prepared to reward exceptionally well-qualified individuals with above-market compensation.
