Senior Systems Design Engineer

Mythic · Austin, TX · 1 mo ago
HybridEngineeringFull-time

What You’ll Own

  • Own design and development of reference boards and hardware platforms
  • Translate silicon capabilities into practical, high-quality system designs
  • Drive schematic design and guide PCB layout (internally or with external partners)
  • Own key hardware subsystems including power delivery, high-speed interfaces, and clocking
  • Ensure signal integrity, power integrity, and overall system robustness
  • Define and incorporate package-level constraints into board design
  • Partner with OSATs and manufacturing vendors to ensure smooth package-to-board integration
  • Support board bring-up and collaborate on debugging system-level issues
  • Drive design for manufacturability (DFM) and readiness for prototype and production builds
  • Work closely with integration, product, test, and packaging teams to ensure successful system deployment

What We’re Looking For

  • Significant experience in hardware or board-level design
  • Strong background in high-speed digital design and power delivery
  • Experience designing and bringing up complex PCBs
  • Familiarity with PCB design tools (Altium, Cadence, or similar)
  • Understanding of package-to-board interactions and system-level constraints
  • Strong engineering judgment and attention to detail
  • Experience working with external vendors (PCB, OSAT)
  • Builder mindset: you do not wait for perfect requirements — you create working systems

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with AI/ML hardware or high-performance compute platforms
  • Exposure to multi-die or chiplet-based systems
  • Familiarity with thermal and mechanical considerations in hardware design

What Success Looks Like

  • Reference boards are robust, reliable, and require minimal re-spins
  • Hardware platforms are easy to use, stable, and ready for integration
  • Designs account for real-world constraints early, reducing downstream issues
  • Strong collaboration with integration, product, and manufacturing teams
  • Smooth transition from prototype builds to manufacturable designs

Why this role matters

  • At Mythic, hardware design is not just about schematics—it is how we deliver real, usable systems that showcase the full value of our silicon.
  • This role is central to turning silicon into working platforms that customers and partners can build on.
  • You will directly influence hardware quality, usability, and readiness for deployment.

Career Path

  • Competitive salary and equity
  • Health, Dental, Vision, 401(k)
  • Uncapped PTO

About Mythic

  • Ambitious AI hardware with real system complexity
  • Critical hardware design at a company where your work directly impacts product delivery
  • Highly collaborative team solving hard engineering problems
  • Moves fast, makes decisions, and builds from first principles
