About The Position

Mythic is building next-generation AI hardware that spans silicon, packaging, and system-level integration. We are looking for a hands-on Senior Systems Integration Engineer to help drive silicon bring-up, hardware validation, debugging, and system characterization across our hardware platforms. This is a highly technical, lab-focused engineering role working at the intersection of silicon, boards, software, and system validation. We want someone who can take incomplete systems, ambiguous failures, and first-generation hardware and turn them into working, understood, and high-performing platforms. You will play a critical role in defining how Mythic brings new silicon to life and ensures it works reliably in real systems. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in high-ownership environments and wants to work across silicon, board design, software, and manufacturing to solve complex system problems. You should be equally comfortable with deep technical problem solving, hands-on hardware work, and building practical validation solutions in fast-moving environments.

Requirements

Experience in silicon bring-up, system integration, or hardware validation
Proven track record of debugging complex hardware systems across multiple domains
Strong understanding of system architecture, high-speed interfaces, and hardware/software interaction
Deep hands-on lab experience with debugging tools and measurement equipment
Experience using lab instrumentation such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers, and power supplies
Experience developing automation tools or test infrastructure using Python, MATLAB, C#, or similar languages
Ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
Strong problem-solving instincts and ability to drive issues to root cause
Experience working cross-functionally across silicon, hardware, and software teams
Builder mindset: you do not wait for structure — you create it

Nice To Haves

Experience with AI/ML hardware, accelerators, or high-performance compute systems
Familiarity with analog or mixed-signal behavior in real silicon
Experience designing or debugging test hardware and validation boards
Experience with multi-die or chiplet-based systems
Exposure to early-stage hardware development and first-silicon bring-up
Familiarity with production test, manufacturing support, or characterization flows
Experience working with large datasets and automated testing workflows

Responsibilities

Own system bring-up from first silicon through stable platform operation
Drive cross-domain debug across chip, package, board, and software boundaries
Define and execute system-level validation strategy for functionality, performance, and power
Establish bring-up methodologies, lab infrastructure, and debug workflows
Identify and root-cause complex system issues spanning analog, digital, and system domains
Correlate silicon behavior with expectations, models, and system requirements
Drive system performance characterization and optimization
Partner closely with design, systems, product, test, packaging, and software teams to ensure system readiness
Provide clear feedback to influence future silicon and system architecture
Support transition from prototype hardware into stable production-ready platforms
Contribute to documentation and validation methodologies for future hardware programs
Lead from the front as an individual contributor who is comfortable working in the lab, debugging hardware, and driving issues to closure
Provide technical leadership during hardware stabilization and customer readiness
