Chicago

IMC is seeking a Hardware Engineer to join our Global Hardware team and help develop the next generation of custom ASICs that power our trading infrastructure.

As a member of the Global Hardware organization, you’ll work on long-term, high-impact engineering challenges that directly influence the performance and scalability of IMC’s trading systems. This team focuses on designing proprietary hardware solutions that deliver meaningful advantages in latency-sensitive environments, partnering closely with software engineers, researchers, and trading teams to solve complex technical problems.

This role combines hardware design, verification, and system-level thinking. You’ll contribute across the ASIC development lifecycle, from RTL design and validation to integration within larger hardware platforms. Because of the team’s size and collaborative culture, engineers have broad ownership and exposure to multiple aspects of the design process rather than being confined to a narrow specialization.

What You’ll Do

ASIC Design & Development

Participate in the full ASIC development lifecycle, from specification through integration and deployment
Design and implement RTL for next-generation ASIC platforms using SystemVerilog
Contribute to architecture and design discussions for performance-critical hardware systems
Develop new functionality that supports evolving trading and infrastructure requirements
Collaborate with hardware, software, and research teams to translate requirements into scalable solutions

Verification & Testing

Develop unit tests and verification environments for RTL designs
Validate functionality and performance of hardware components
Debug design and integration issues throughout the development process
Contribute to verification methodologies and testing infrastructure
Ensure designs meet reliability, performance, and maintainability requirements

Engineering & Tooling

Develop scripts and tooling to improve engineering workflows
Support automation efforts across design and verification processes
Contribute to continuous improvements in development methodologies and engineering practices

What You Bring

BS+ in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline
Strong experience with RTL design and development using SystemVerilog
Strong understanding of digital design fundamentals
Working knowledge of C++
Experience developing and executing verification and test strategies
Experience working with multi-clock-domain designs and clock-domain crossing concepts
Solid understanding of Ethernet protocols and networking fundamentals
Experience with Python, Bash, or similar scripting languages
Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
Ability to collaborate effectively across multiple engineering disciplines

Nice to Have

ASIC development experience
FPGA development experience with relevant ASIC design exposure
Familiarity with PMA (Physical Media Attachment) technologies
Experience with high-performance networking systems
Experience designing low-latency or performance-sensitive systems
Exposure to trading, market infrastructure, or financial technology environments
Experience building verification frameworks or test automation tools
Strong C++ development skills

What Makes Someone Successful in This Role

Balances architecture-level thinking with hands-on implementation
Enjoys solving difficult technical problems across hardware and software domains
Takes ownership of systems and follows through from design to deployment
Demonstrates strong attention to detail and engineering rigor
Thrives in collaborative environments and works well across teams
Learns quickly and adapts to evolving technical challenges
Communicates clearly and effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
