Semiconductors & Chip Design Recruiting & Talent — United States (remote)

Hiring or job-hunting in semiconductors & chip design around the United States (remote)? This is a focused guide to the market: the roles in demand, the skills that move offers, and what the pay actually looks like — for a niche the big salary surveys barely cover. Deep specialization plus heavy geographic concentration means broad national bands badly misprice the real local market.

  • RTL Design Engineer
  • Design Verification Engineer
  • Physical Design Engineer

Emerging

  • AI Accelerator Architect
  • Chiplet Integration Engineer

Skills that move offers

  • SystemVerilog
  • UVM
  • RTL design
  • timing closure
  • synthesis
  • DFT

Compensation

Survey in progress

We're running a focused compensation survey for semiconductors & chip design roles — including the emerging titles (AI Accelerator Architect, Chiplet Integration Engineer) that Radford and Mercer don't break out. Real, min-N pay bands replace this as soon as we hit the threshold.
