Build the kind of software that
forces you to level up

Hiveware is building one of the fastest, most advanced chip-simulation engines on the planet.

This is a once-in-a-generation engineering challenge. The kind of problem that attracts people who want to work at the cutting edge of their discipline.

Verification is a problem worth solving

Every company that designs chips for smartphones, GPUs, data centers, automotive, space, or IoT, relies on code that must be verified before tapeout.

As chips grow more complex, verification codebases explode. Bugs found late can cost millions, delay launches, or miss entire market windows. The challenge isn’t talent. It’s that legacy tools are too slow for today’s scale.

Hiveware is rebuilding simulation from the ground up to remove this bottleneck and give verification teams back control of the critical path. This is where hard problems live, and where your work directly matters

Where elite C/C++ and Rust engineers come to stretch themselves

The core systems are still being defined, and the performance envelope is not yet fixed. That means the work you do now directly shapes what this simulator can become.

This is deep, high-stakes engineering. As a member of our team, you will:

Push compilers, runtimes, and memory systems to their limits

Design concurrency models for multi-threaded and multi-host execution

Build lock-free data structures and cache-aware algorithms where every micro-optimization matters

Work one day a week from home as part of our hybrid work model

Enjoy more stability than a typical startup: with $22M raised, there’s a long runway to build something meaningful

Grow with us

We’re a small, opinionated team that debates hard and expects people to own the outcomes of their work. We believe strong teams are built through real human connection: working closely, sharing ideas, and taking time to unwind together.

For software engineers looking for a place where their work can genuinely break new ground while building meaningful relationships along the way, Hiveware is the team to join.

Our Values

Raise the bar

We hold ourselves to high standards in the rigor of our work, and the ambition of the problems we take on. If something can be better, faster, or more elegant, we push it there.

Push the boundaries

We’re tackling problems that haven’t moved in three decades. We push forward with disciplined, continuous engineering: validating ideas, improving what works, and refusing to get stuck.

One hive

Hard problems are only fun if you’re not solving them alone. We debug together and celebrate wins together. We work as one hive pushing the simulator forward.
