MEET THE TEAM

Join the Cisco Silicon One team in developing a unified silicon architecture for web scale and service provider networks. Cisco’s silicon team provides a unique experience for ASIC engineers by combining the resources offered by a large multi-geography silicon organization and a large campus (with onsite gym, healthcare, and café, social interest groups, and philanthropy), with the startup culture and breadth of growth opportunities that working in a smaller ASIC team can provide. 

You will work with exceptional talent with vast ASIC design and development expertise. With Cisco being a systems company, you will also have an opportunity to work with other ASIC teams in the journey of taking it from concept to first customer shipments.
