Job Description About Newton School Come be part of a rocket ship that's creating a massive impact in the world of education On one side you have over a million college graduates every year with barely 5% employability rates and on the other side, there are thousands of companies struggling to find talent. Newton School aims to bridge this massive gap through its personalized learning platform. We are building an online university and solving the deep problem of the employability of graduates.We have a strong core team consisting of alumni from IITs and IIM, having several years of industry experience in companies like Unacademy, Inmobi, Ola, and Microsoft - among others. On this mission, we are backed by some of the most respected investors around the world, - RTP Global, Nexus Venture Partners, and a slew of angel investors including CRED's Kunal Shah, Flipkart's Kalyan Krishnamoorthy, Unacademy and Razorpay founders, Udaan's Sujeet Kumar among others. About the Role: We are looking for VLSI engineers with a strong foundation in digital systems and computer architecture to take on an academic teaching role. This full-time position is ideal for engineers with hands-on experience in RTL design, processor components, or SoC architecture who are excited to teach how computers are built from logic gates to microarchitectures. You will lead classroom instruction, mentor student projects, and help shape curriculum at the intersection of digital logic, hardware systems, and architectural design. Key Responsibilities - Teach Computer Architecture by drawing from real-world VLSI design experience covering instruction sets, pipelining, memory systems, and microprocessor implementation. - Guide students through lab simulations and RTL projects that explore how architectural concepts are implemented in hardware (e.g., datapaths, control units, cache design). - Design and evaluate lab work, assessments, and hands-on student projects that simulate industry applications. - Mentor and support students in their academic and professional development journeys. - Continuously update course content to reflect current industry trends and technologies. - Contribute to curriculum development, academic research, and internal learning initiatives. - Host technical workshops, design challenges, and guest sessions to extend classroom learning. - Collaborate with fellow faculty, industry mentors, and curriculum designers to enrich learning outcomes Must-Have Skills & Qualifications - B.Tech / M.Tech / Ph.D. in Computer Engineering, Electronics, Electrical, or a related field. - Experience working on processor subsystems, SoC integration, RTL for custom compute blocks, or related architecture-level VLSI work. - Strong technical command over topics such as: Computer Architecture: Instruction sets, microprocessors, memory hierarchy, pipelining, cache systems. VLSI Design: CMOS circuits, RTL design, ASIC/FPGA flow, timing analysis, layout. - Proficiency in tools such as Cadence, ModelSim, Synopsys, Xilinx, Mentor Graphics, etc. - Working knowledge of HDL languages (Verilog/VHDL) and scripting (Tcl, Shell, Python). - Excellent communication and classroom delivery skills. - Demonstrated interest in teaching and mentoring students. Good-to-Have Skills: - Prior experience as a faculty member or technical trainer. - Familiarity with RISC-V, ARM-based processors, SoC Design, or low-power systems - Exposure to DFT, verification methodologies, and EDA flows. - Contributions to open-source, academic publications, or online technical content. - Comfort with digital tools, LMS platforms, and collaborative teaching formats.
