Join our Team

About the Opportunity

Ericsson's Product Engineering Unit Silicon drives the architecture and development of Digital ASICs and SoCs that power current and future generations of mobile networks. Our Silicon System & Architecture organization defines system-level concepts, accelerator architectures, and micro-architectures that underpin Ericsson's Radio and Compute product portfolios.

You will join a highly skilled team of 7 senior technical leaders responsible for setting the direction of next-generation Digital ASICs. Together with the rest of the system team, the mission is to define accelerator solutions that improve radio and baseband performance, increase energy efficiency, and enable hardware-software co-optimization across the stack.

This role is suited for a senior architect who thrives in early-phase definition, systemization of complex hardware accelerators, and alignment across multiple technical domains. Your contributions will directly strengthen and expand Ericsson's accelerator leadership.

What You Will Do

• Define architecture and systemization for next-generation hardware accelerators, including matrix processors for AI/ML inference, signal processing, and radio workloads.
• Specify, justify, and evaluate new accelerator features with a focus on performance, determinism, and power efficiency.
• Drive micro-architecture development for accelerator blocks and subsystems and produce high-quality specifications used by design and verification teams.
• Collaborate with the Accelerator IP Program, SoC architects, and Radio/RAN Compute organizations to translate system requirements into ASIC-level architecture.
• Guide implementation teams throughout design, verification, and validation.
• Contribute to methodology improvements for modeling, architectural exploration, and system-level workflows.
• Work closely with technical leaders across the organization to align architectural direction, ensure feasibility, and realize system-level optimization goals.

Skills You Bring

Essential

• Master's or PhD in Electronic Engineering or equivalent.
• Proven experience in systemization and architecture of hardware accelerators, ideally for real-time or high-performance systems.
• Strong background in advanced Digital ASIC/SoC development, from concept through specification to implementation support.
• Solid understanding of ASIC design flows, EDA environments, and modeling methodologies.
• Proficiency in VHDL and/or SystemVerilog.
• Strong programming capability in relevant languages (e.g., Python, Julia, MATLAB, C/C++).
• Excellent skills in linear algebra, neural networks, and signal-processing algorithms.
• Demonstrated technical leadership, with the ability to drive complex work both independently and collaboratively.
• Experience with GIT and modern development workflows.

Can Be Learned in the Role

• Ericsson-specific accelerator IP frameworks and architectural methodologies.
• ML toolchains (e.g., Llama or similar) as applied to ASIC accelerator design.
• Domain-specific radio and RAN Compute use-case optimization.
