Role Overview

Astera Labs is establishing a strategic R&D center in Israel to drive the development of complex semiconductor chips that solve the critical 'data bottlenecks' enabling the future of AI at scale. As we expand our presence in Israel, we're seeking a talented Staff / Principal ASIC Design Engineer to help build our local engineering powerhouse from the ground up. This is an exciting opportunity to take on meaningful product ownership in a new site, designing the digital blocks that sit at the heart of our most ambitious connectivity projects.

As a Staff / Principal ASIC Design Engineer, you won't just build chips—you will be part of a team defining the next generation of AI infrastructure main components. The complex digital blocks under your micro-architecture and implementation responsibilities will power the world's largest AI clusters. You will own the journey from high-level definition through RTL implementation and backend support, transforming complex logic challenges into elegant, high-performance hardware. If you thrive on solving challenging problems in deep-submicron processes and want to contribute to the digital design foundation for AI infrastructure connectivity, this is your opportunity.

Key Responsibilities

  • Excellent communication skills with ability to work effectively across teams
  • Understanding of digital design principles and RTL coding best practices

Preferred Qualifications

  • Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
  • Knowledge of DDR and PCIe protocols and implementation
  • Understanding of power management techniques for low-power design
  • Familiarity with Clock Domain Crossing, simulation, debugging, synthesis, and timing analysis
  • Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python or Perl
  • Experience with high-speed serial interface designs or connectivity protocols

We know that creativity and innovation happen more often when teams include diverse ideas, backgrounds, and experiences, and we actively encourage everyone with relevant experience to apply, including people of color, LGBTQ+ and non-binary people, veterans, parents, and individuals with disabilities.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
