THE ROLE
Lead the architectural evolution of Qt-based UI systems for next-generation FPGA design tools. Own the vision for advancing established Qt frameworks toward modern, sophisticated paradigms while maintaining deep integration with high-performance backend engines. Drive the strategic direction of tool interfaces built on Qt technology.
This is NOT a web development role. We need someone who has architected sophisticated Qt-based UI systems for professional tools and can mentor teams on UI architecture excellence.

YOUR BACKGROUND
15+ years in core UI development for systems software (NOT web frameworks)
Deep expertise in C++ UI frameworks, specifically Qt (core competency)
Strong proficiency in Qt architecture, signals/slots, custom widgets, graphics view framework
Professional tools experience: EDA (Cadence, Synopsys, Mentor), Adobe, or similar systems software
Proven track record transitioning legacy UI to up-to-date architectures while leveraging Qt capabilities
Expert in GUI toolkits, event-driven architecture, graphics pipelines, performance optimization

WHAT YOU'LL DRIVE




Architect sophisticated Qt-based UI frameworks for EDA design tools
Lead technical vision for Qt modernization and advanced capabilities
Design scalable Qt architectures that balance performance with innovation
Mentor and grow a specialized UI engineering team on Qt best practices
Establish Qt architecture standards and reusable component frameworks
Collaborate across architecture, backend, and design teams

YOU DON'T
Build React/Vue/Angular web applications
Come from IT or enterprise software backgrounds primarily
View C++ systems UI as "legacy" to escape from
Focus on consumer-facing mobile/web UI

WHY LATTICE
Your work shapes how engineers worldwide interact with FPGA design tools. You'll lead a high-impact technical team, influence product strategy, and drive continuous modernization of professional tool interfaces.
Competitive compensation, flexible work arrangement, and collaborative
