Hello HW brothers and sisters. I’ve been chatting with my network, but also curious to hear your thoughts on systems hw jobs in an r&d context that are interesting and cool and pay as much as Apple with better WLB. TC 350k

  • - Nvidia: comparable pay, great WLB, good future
    - Meta: better pay, not so good WLB, questionable future

    What is your area?

      Bay Area. I do have a friend at nvidia who’s gonna help me out and they have a good reputation among engineers. We just need to identify which opportunities fit.

      Curious about meta, know folks who like it there and others who don’t. Agree re: their uncertain future. Do they frown on candidates with no fb account?

    You need to be more specific. "Systems HW" can mean a huge amount of different things. Is this board level systems integration? Silicon?

      One of the SPGs. It’s pretty cool most of the time, but last 12 months the schedules have been unrelenting, my management has almost completely turned over, lots of engineers have left, and now I’m DRI’ing all their work with no schedule relief. I’d say it’s still cool here, just less so for yours truly.

      Not OP but very similar background. Does AMD have similar roles? Almost everything I could find was related to silicon mfg and verification
