Distinguished Engineer, ASIC
Butterfly Network, Inc. is leading a digital revolution in medical imaging with its innovative Ultrasound-on-Chip™ technology. They are seeking a Distinguished Engineer, ASIC to take ownership of complex digital IC subsystems, from architecture to tapeout, while collaborating cross-functionally to meet chip-level requirements.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)ElectronicsHealth CareManufacturingMedical DeviceSemiconductor
Responsibilities
BS/MS/PhD in EE/CE/CS or equivalent practical tapeout experience
8–12+ years (typical Principal level) in digital IC / ASIC / SoC design with significant hands-on RTL ownership
Strong understanding of digital IC implementation at the silicon level, including timing closure implications, clock/reset domain architecture, power-aware design, and PPA (power, performance, area) tradeoffs
Proven ability to own complex digital IC subsystems from architecture and PPA tradeoffs through RTL implementation, verification signoff, and tapeout handoff to physical design
Strong RTL skills in SystemVerilog/Verilog to implement silicon-proven digital architectures, including pipelined datapaths, control logic, state machines, and high-throughput streaming interfaces
Experience architecting sustained high-throughput digital datapaths, including buffering, arbitration, backpressure, bandwidth budgeting, and SRAM/memory hierarchy design
Prior work at advanced technology nodes (28nm or smaller), including timing closure challenges and integration of third-party IP
Experience collaborating with verification teams to validate complex digital architectures and resolve functional issues through tapeout signoff
Comfortable working cross-functionally with analog, systems, and packaging/board teams to close chip-level requirements and integration details, including hardware–firmware interfaces (register maps, control/status paths, data-plane contracts)
Experience implementing compute-intensive digital pipelines (e.g., DSP, beamforming, AI, or MAC-heavy/vector datapaths)
Exposure to medical imaging / ultrasound systems, beamforming pipelines, or sensor data acquisition architectures
Experience designing or integrating programmable digital compute blocks (e.g., AI accelerators, MPUs, or eFPGA fabrics), including instruction/control interfaces, memory hierarchy, data movement, and PPA tradeoffs
