Velaura AI

Sr Engineer CAD Pre-Silicon Front End

Santa Clara, CA · Full-time

$200K–$300K

Series A · $110M · 50d ago Posted 27d ago

Role Overview

Velaura is building custom silicon for Physical and Embodied AI, and we are building it
from a blank sheet. The automation our design and verification engineers use to get
from RTL to a clean handoff shapes how fast that silicon comes together.
You will own the front end automation that carries our silicon from RTL entry to a clean
handoff into DFT and implementation. The scope covers RTL design flows, verification
flows from simulation through prototyping, and the AI assisted tooling built over them.
Success is measured two ways. Front end engineers get more done, and the tools they
rely on stay up through every phase of the design cycle.

Why Velaura?

Velaura is building next-generation compute technology for cloud, edge, and Physical AI. Our solutions will enable robots, autonomous systems, drones, and other intelligent machines to operate efficiently in the physical world.
This is an opportunity to help build foundational technology at a time when the industry is undergoing fundamental change. You will work alongside experienced leaders, architects, engineers, and operators who have delivered industry-defining products across mobile, cloud, semiconductor, and AI platforms. If you enjoy solving difficult problems, working across disciplines, and helping shape the future of Physical AI, we would love to hear from you.
