Drive the Next Wave of Computing Innovation at MIPS

At MIPS, we're shaping the future of compute architecture with advanced IP that powers a wide range of applications. We take a disciplined, methodical approach to designing scalable, energy-efficient solutions that meet demanding power, performance, and area goals.

Our team spans from architecture, performance modeling, design, verification, implementation to software and software optimization for our customers. The team thrives on collaboration, technical depth, and a culture of mutual respect. We value diverse perspectives and practical experience, and we know that excellence is built through thoughtful teamwork and a commitment to the highest engineering standards.

We're seeking a CPU RTL design engineer with prior experience in creating structural RTL for one of the following: CPU, GPU, DSP, Interconnects, memory controllers or compute accelerators.

As part of our team, you'll have the opportunity to take ownership of CPU functional blocks and implement RTL, and work with verification and physical design engineers to ensure adherence to functional and physical project requirements. You'll also mentor junior engineers in the art of RTL design.

Our flexible hybrid work modelthree days in the office, two remotesupports both in-person collaboration/mentoring and focused development time.

Join us and put your skills, insight, and passion to work to redefine what's possible
