Hardware Engineer (Remote)

Phinity is helping the labs building AGI automate hardware engineering by building environments to train agents on hardware design and verification tasks.

Our customers include one of the largest frontier labs.
We're seeking hardware engineers to collaborate with frontier lab researchers to create high-quality RTL design, verification, and debugging challenges that mirror real-world semiconductor development.

It is a remote/hybrid position with flexible hours, with pay up to $90/hour based on experience.
What you’ll do:
Develop realistic RTL design and verification problems that reflect industry complexity and best practices
Build and optimize containerized environments for agent training tasks in hardware design workflows
Work directly with frontier lab AI researchers to understand agent capabilities and training requirements
Required Experience:
2+ years in RTL design using Verilog/SystemVerilog or VHDL
Strong background in verification methodologies (UVM, SystemVerilog, testbench development)
Experience with synthesis, timing analysis, and debugging tools
Familiarity with industry-standard EDA tools (Synopsys, Cadence, Mentor Graphics)
Skills:
Strong problem-solving and analytical thinking
Excellent communication skills for cross-functional collaboration for researchers who are not hardware experts
Curiosity about AI/ML applications in hardware design
Self-motivated and able to work independently in a remote environment
