Building the Next Generation of High-Performance RISC-V CPUs

A pioneering RISC-V company founded by members of the original UC Berkeley RISC-V team is seeking a senior semiconductor leader to drive the development of next-generation cloud-native processors.

Reporting directly to the Founder \& CEO, this executive will lead the company's CPU product roadmap, engineering strategy, and organizational development as it scales toward mass production of next-generation server-class processors.

Why This Opportunity?

• One of China's earliest and most advanced RISC-V CPU companies

• Founded by a team deeply rooted in the original RISC-V project at UC Berkeley, with the Founder \& CEO having participated in the development of the RISC-V ISA under Turing Award winner Professor David Patterson

• The first company in China to deliver a general-purpose server CPU based entirely on self-developed core IP

• Backed by leading strategic investors, including ByteDance

• Developing high-performance cloud-native CPUs for AI infrastructure, cloud computing, storage, networking, and data center applications

• Opportunity to help shape the future of the global RISC-V ecosystem and influence next-generation computing architectures

• A rapidly growing, pre-IPO company with strong market momentum and long-term strategic backing

• Highly competitive executive compensation package, including substantial equity participation and significant long-term wealth creation potential

• Direct access to the Founder and executive leadership team, with the opportunity to influence company strategy at the highest level

We Are Looking For Leaders Who Have:

✔ 10\+ years of semiconductor development experience

✔ Led multiple advanced-node processor tape-outs (7nm and below) through successful production

✔ Deep expertise in CPU architecture, microarchitecture, SoC design, NoC (Network-on-Chip), cache coherency, high-speed interfaces, and large-scale engineering execution

✔ Experience from leading processor organizations such as Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, Qualcomm, Apple Silicon, Ampere, Marvell, Broadcom, Huawei HiSilicon, Alibaba T-Head, or similar world-class teams

✔ A proven track record of building and leading world-class engineering organizations
