Job Description
You might know YosysHQ from our many Open Source EDA Projects. We are the maintainers of Yosys and the accompanying Open Source EDA ecosystem. Our team is pushing the boundaries of EDA in interesting and unexpected ways, and making these tools and methodologies available for professionals, hobbyists, and academics alike.
We offer off-the-shelf software packages that seamlessly integrate our tools in industry design environments and provide support and training for users of our software packages. We also offer custom development of individual features and entire flows based on our software components, and support and training for developers working on custom projects based on our Open Source work.
Tasks
We are around 10 people, with two main focus areas: synthesis and formal verification. This role will own the financials for the organization and the operations.
Financials
- Budgeting: Monitor budgets, track expenditures, and ensure alignment with company goals.
- Financial Planning + Analysis: Create financial forecasts, analyze staffing and new project variances, and develop strategic financial models to support decision-making.
- Pricing Strategy: Assess pricing models and costs of development services to maximize revenue and market competitiveness. Define and track retention and lifetime value data.
- Client Financial Requirements: Attend Grant meetings and prepare documentation to ensure we meet the criteria for upcoming projects.
Operations
- Operational Leadership: Work with the Project Manager to develop and optimize operational processes for efficiency and scalability.
- Team management: Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Own 1 on 1’s and our Biannual review process.
- Contracts: Own the contract process including redline requests, invoicing, and managing work on client financial portals (SAP Ariba, etc.).
- Grant writing: Research, identify, and pursue relevant grants and funding opportunities aligned with the company’s objectives. Handle all non-technical aspects for grant proposals, including managing submission processes and tracking deadlines.
As we are a small and busy team, and as such we have limited resources for training. To succeed in this role you will need to have some experience in getting integrated with small businesses or startups. You will need to be comfortable delegating tasks, empowering your team to work at their best, and heading off challenges quickly.
Requirements
Important Notes
This is a flexible part time remote role (1-3 days per week).
You would be working as an independent contractor/freelancer for an Austrian company, from wherever you are. Our team meetings usually take place between 3pm and 6pm Vienna time (CET/CEST), otherwise you can choose to work whenever you want.
YosysHQ has a flat pay hierarchy, where everyone earns the same rate: currently 6000€/month for full time contract work. As such, the only parameter that can be negotiated is the days per week.
As YosysHQ works with US government contractors, you must not be living in a country subject to sanctions or export restrictions, or banned from performing work for the US government for other reasons.
