About the role

  • Company Description Butterfly Network, Inc. (NYSE: BFLY) is driving a digital revolution in ultrasound imaging and sensing with its proprietary Ultrasound-on-Chip™ semiconductor technology and software solutions.
  • Butterfly first proved its technology in the point-of-care ultrasound market - commercializing the world's first single-probe, whole-body portable ultrasound device, which is now on its best-selling, third-generation: Butterfly iQ3™.
  • Butterfly also enables third-party development of imaging AI apps through Butterfly Garden™, its software development kit and AI partnership initiative.

Requirements

  • Strong understanding of digital IC implementation at the silicon level, including timing closure implications, clock/reset domain architecture, power-aware design, and PPA (power, performance, area) tradeoffs.
  • Experience designing or integrating programmable digital compute blocks (e.g., AI accelerators, MPUs, or eFPGA fabrics), including instruction/control interfaces, memory hierarchy, data movement, and PPA tradeoffs.
  • Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States.
  • These include: adhering to all company security policies and procedures, utilizing provided company assets securely, and completing all required security awareness training programs.
  • adhering to all company security policies and procedures, utilizing provided company assets securely, and completing all required security awareness training programs.
  • Baseline skills/experiences/attributes:
  • 8-12+ years (typical Principal level) in digital IC / ASIC / SoC design with significant hands-on RTL ownership.
  • Proven ability to own complex digital IC subsystems from architecture and PPA tradeoffs through RTL implementation, verification signoff, and tapeout handoff to physical design.
  • Strong RTL skills in SystemVerilog/Verilog to implement silicon-proven digital architectures, including pipelined datapaths, control logic, state machines, and high-throughput streaming interfaces.
  • Experience architecting sustained high-throughput digital datapaths, including buffering, arbitration, backpressure, bandwidth budgeting, and SRAM/memory hierarchy design.
  • Experience collaborating with verification teams to validate complex digital architectures and resolve functional issues through tapeout signoff.
  • Comfortable working cross-functionally with analog, systems, and packaging/board teams to close chip-level requirements and integration details, including hardware-firmware interfaces (register maps, control/status paths, data-plane contracts).
  • Ideally, you also have these skills/experiences/attributes (but it's ok if you don't!):

Skills

  • BS/MS/PhD in EE/CE/CS or equivalent practical tapeout experience.
  • Prior work at advanced technology nodes (28nm or smaller), including timing closure challenges and integration of third-party IP.
  • Experience implementing compute-intensive digital pipelines (e.g., DSP, beamforming, AI, or MAC-heavy/vector datapaths).
  • Exposure to medical imaging / ultrasound systems, beamforming pipelines, or sensor data acquisition architectures.
  • Company Description
  • Let's build something extraordinary together!
