  • Lead design across multiple subsystems (forwarding engine, traffic management, scheduling, resource allocation).
  • Drive cross-functional alignment with HW, SW, and Product teams on networking features and performance targets.
  • Lead performance analysis, modeling, and trade-off studies for switch architecture.
  • Mentor senior technical leaders and influence organization-wide engineering direction.
  • Ensure successful execution from architecture through silicon delivery.

Requirements

  • Deep expertise in ASIC development, especially logic design, RTL coding, verification, synthesis, timing closure and physical design flow.
  • Deep expertise in Ethernet switch architecture, including forwarding pipelines (L2/L3, ACLs, tunneling), traffic management (QoS, scheduling, shaping), and high-performance packet processing and scaling strategies.
  • Strong leadership and cross-functional influence capability.
  • Strong debugging and system-level problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent teamwork, interpersonal and communication skills.
  • Fluent in Chinese and English both verbal and written.
  • Ability to work in stressful situations with tight schedules to meet.
  • Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 6+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
