Meet the Team You will join the Cisco Silicon One group, the core of Cisco’s ASIC design and the engine behind the world’s most powerful AI infrastructure. We are a unique design center, and the team based in Caesarea hosts every discipline—from architecture and coding to physical board design and sign-off—under one roof. Our team operates with a fast-paced startup energy, building the largest-scale, high-speed devices at the absolute edge of feasibility. We don’t just design chips; we build the unified hardware architecture that powers the next generation of global networking and AI clusters. Your Impact Lead the transition of high-complexity silicon products from R&D to mass production with a focus on SMT processes and board-level integration. Partner with Board Design and Validation engineers to analyze simulations and ensure our ASICs meet strict electrical, power, and thermal specs. Manage the end-to-end operational lifecycle, including technical procurement (רכש), supplier visits, and providing hands-on support for logistics and shipping (ליווי הרכבות/משלוחים) as needed. Drive hands-on execution by taking full ownership of the hardware—this includes everything from simulation analysis to physical tasks like unpacking, packing, and preparing pallets in the warehouse. You will succeed by being a proactive all-rounder who ensures our record-breaking technology moves seamlessly from the lab to the global market. Minimum Qualifications B.Sc. in Electrical or Industrial Engineering (or equivalent technical experience). 3 years of NPI experience specifically within high-tech hardware or semiconductor environments. Hands-on expertise in SMT (Surface Mount Technology) processes and multidisciplinary product assembly.
