About the role

Altera seeks a Product Architecture Model Development Leader to drive behavioral and architectural models for next-generation FPGA silicon before RTL development. You will lead a team, define modeling standards, and ensure models serve as a single source of truth for architecture, verification, RTL, and software teams. The role involves coordinating with silicon architects, verifying teams, and enabling early customer prototyping and pathfinding across multiple silicon generations.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
