Staff Reliability Engineer

As we scale production and build next-generation near-sensor ambient computing systems, reliability in mixed-signal processing pipelines will be a key differentiator. We are looking for a Staff Reliability Engineer who will play a central role in establishing and executing a company-wide reliability analysis framework for mixed-signal systems – a core requirement in our always-on, low-power computing architecture.

• Develop and implement a reliability analysis framework across the full mixed-signal stack.
• Simulate and evaluate how various algorithms perform under mixed-signal reliability constraints.
• Update and extend models within the Archsim framework to simulate pipeline behavior.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles are applied in reliability-critical areas.
• Assess algorithmic implications on mixed-signal reliability, including how KPIs are affected by algorithm and hardware design choices.
• Develop bottom-up models of hardware architectures with a focus on benchmarking reliability.
• Enable accurate estimation of failure risks and inform design improvements.Collaborate across disciplines, including SDK and algorithm teams, to integrate reliability into the full product development lifecycle.
• Support continuous improvement of production yield and system-level MTBF.

• Strong background in mixed-signal systems, reliability engineering, or DFM.
• Experience with reliability simulation models and metrics such as MTBF.
• Proficiency in hardware modeling and architectural benchmarking.
• Ability to analyze testhouse and calibration data effectively.
• Familiarity with algorithms–hardware interactions, especially related to reliability trade-offs.
• Experience designing and updating models within simulation frameworks (e.g., Archsim).

• Understanding of low-power, always-on systems.
• Experience in bare-metal embedded systems.
• Exposure to Assembly-level development.
• Experience collaborating across SDK, algorithm, or hardware/software co-design environments.
• Background in yield optimization or semiconductor production.

• Ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams to drive innovative solutions.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to convey complex ideas clearly. 
• Positive attitude and ability to bring a sense of humor and optimism to the workplace.
• Flexibility and ability to embrace new challenges and opportunities as they arise.
• Curious and innovative mindset. You think outside the box, bringing fresh ideas and solutions, and aren't afraid to challenge conventions.
