About SiPearl SiPearl is the European fabless designer of sovereign secure high-performance energy-efficient CPUs for HPC, AI and data centres. These CPUs will help address strategic challenges in the fields of security, defence, medical research, energy, climate and engineering with a reduced environmental footprint.
SiPearl is incubated within the European Processor Initiative (EPI) Consortium and seed-funded by the European Union. SiPearl employs almost 200 people in France (Maisons-Laffitte, Grenoble, Massy, Sophia Antipolis), Spain (Barcelona), and Italy (Bologna). After a €130 million Series A, the company has launched its Series B round.
About The Role
To validate our first tape-out, we developed an initial prototyping platform, using a smart hybrid approach that connects a real hardware system development board with a small prototyping FPGA board. Based on the success of this approach, we are building a full stack prototyping and demonstration platform to port the full complexity of our designs to FPGA prototyping and enable the development of the entire FW and SW (BIOS,



Kernel or high speed interfaces like PCIe/DDR/UCIe) pre-silicon. We are assembling a new team that will use state-of-the-art multi-FPGA prototyping platforms, porting and modeling our designs and connecting them with real hardware.
