Job description

We are looking for VLSI engineers with a strong foundation in digital systems and computer architecture to take on a full-time academic teaching role. This position is ideal for engineers with hands-on experience in RTL design, processor components, or SoC architecture who are excited to teach students how computers are built from logic gates to microarchitectures. You will lead classroom instruction, mentor student projects, and help shape curriculum at the intersection of digital logic, hardware systems, and architectural design.

Key Responsibilities :

Teach Computer Architecture, covering instruction sets, pipelining, memory systems, and microprocessor implementation, leveraging real-world VLSI design experience.
Guide students through lab simulations and RTL projects, demonstrating implementation of architectural concepts (datapaths, control units, cache design).
Design and evaluate lab work, assessments, and hands-on student projects simulating industry applications.
Mentor and support students in their academic and professional development journeys.
Continuously update course content to reflect current industry trends and technologies.
Contribute to curriculum development, academic research, and internal learning initiatives.
Host technical workshops, design challenges, and guest sessions to extend classroom learning.
Collaborate with fellow faculty, industry mentors, and curriculum designers to enrich learning outcomes.

Must-Have Skills & Qualifications :

B.Tech / M.Tech / Ph.D. in Computer Engineering, Electronics, Electrical, or a related field.

Hands-on experience with processor subsystems, SoC integration, RTL for custom compute blocks, or architecture-level VLSI work.

Strong technical knowledge of Computer Architecture : Instruction sets, microprocessors, memory hierarchy, pipelining, cache systems.

VLSI Design : CMOS circuits, RTL design, ASIC / FPGA flow, timing analysis, layout.

Proficiency in tools such as Cadence, ModelSim, Synopsys, Xilinx, Mentor Graphics, etc.

Working knowledge of HDL languages (Verilog / VHDL) and scripting (Tcl, Shell, Python).

Excellent communication and classroom delivery skills.

Demonstrated interest in teaching and mentoring students.

Good-to-Have Skills :

Prior experience as a faculty member or technical trainer.

Familiarity with RISC-V, ARM-based processors, SoC Design, or low-power systems.

Exposure to DFT, verification methodologies, and EDA flows.

Contributions to open-source, academic publications, or online technical content.

Comfort with digital tools, LMS platforms, and collaborative teaching formats.

Skills Required

Rtl Design, Computer Architecture, Vhdl, Verilog, FPGA Design
