Build and operate the Linux, network, storage, remote-access and EDA infrastructure behind Vicharak's ASIC engineering environment. Location Surat, Gujarat ( On-site ) Experience 1-2 Years Employment Full-Time About the Role Vicharak is building advanced computing systems across embedded systems, FPGA and ASIC design. As our ASIC engineering team grows, we are building our own internal compute and IT infrastructure to run semiconductor design tools, engineering servers, storage systems, VPN access and development environments. We are looking for an IT & EDA Infrastructure Engineer with 1-2 years of hands-on experience in IT support, Linux systems, networking or server administration. Prior ASIC or semiconductor experience is not required. We will train the selected engineer on semiconductor EDA infrastructure, ASIC design environments, EDA license management, engineering compute systems and related technologies. This is a strong opportunity for someone from an IT/System Administration background who wants to move into semiconductor engineering infrastructure. Key Responsibilities Linux Server Administration Install and configure Linux operating systems.Manage Linux users, groups, permissions and SSH access.Install packages and software required by engineering teams.Monitor CPU, RAM, disk usage, system load and running services.Troubleshoot Linux system issues and perform basic server maintenance.Maintain multiple engineering servers and document configurations.Experience with Ubuntu, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, RHEL or CentOS is preferred. IT Support for Engineering Teams Provide day-to-day technical support to engineers, including: Linux login/access issuesNetwork connectivityVPN connectivitySSH problemsStorage accessSoftware installationServer accessUser account managementSystem configurationBasic hardware troubleshootingThe engineer should be comfortable troubleshooting problems independently and documenting solutions. Networking Assist in managing the company's internal engineering network. Basic understanding is expected in: TCP/IP and IP addressingSubnetsDHCP and DNSRoutingVLANsFirewallsNATSSHThe engineer will gradually gain experience managing higher-speed networking and larger server environments as Vicharak's compute infrastructure grows. VPN & Remote Access Create and manage VPN users.Troubleshoot VPN connectivity.Manage secure remote server access and SSH keys.Maintain access permissions and help implement secure remote-access policies.Experience with WireGuard, OpenVPN, Tailscale or IPsec is beneficial but not mandatory. Server & Hardware Management Assist with deployment and maintenance of Linux servers, workstations, storage servers, network switches, routers, firewalls and UPS systems. OS installationDisk replacementRAM upgradesNetwork configurationServer troubleshootingHardware monitoringStorage & Backup Help maintain centralized engineering storage and learn technologies such as NFS, NAS, RAID, shared network storage, Linux filesystems, snapshots and backup servers. Monitor storage usage and health.Manage user permissions.Maintain and verify backups.Assist with data recovery.User & Access Management Create Linux accounts.Manage groups and permissions.Manage SSH keys and VPN access.Revoke access when required.Maintain documentation of system access.As the infrastructure grows, the engineer will also learn centralized authentication systems such as LDAP or FreeIPA. EDA & Semiconductor Infrastructure Training The selected engineer will be trained internally on infrastructure used by ASIC design teams. You are not expected to know these technologies before joining. Over time, you will learn how to support semiconductor design tools from companies such as Cadence, Synopsys, Siemens EDA and Ansys, including: EDA software installation and environment configurationEDA license servers and FlexLM/FlexNetTool version managementPDK installation and accessShared engineering environmentsSemiconductor design compute infrastructureASIC design storage requirementsEngineering compute clustersYou do not need to become an ASIC design engineer. Your responsibility will be to understand the infrastructure required by ASIC engineers and keep that environment reliable, secure and accessible. EDA License Server Management After training, responsibilities will include assisting with: Installing EDA license servers.Configuring vendor license daemons.Monitoring available licenses.Troubleshooting license checkout problems.Updating license files.Maintaining license-server availability.You will gradually learn technologies such as FlexLM, FlexNet, lmgrd and vendor license daemons. Engineering Compute Infrastructure As Vicharak grows, our infrastructure will expand from a small number of servers into a larger compute environment. You will help us build and maintain systems used for: ASIC simulationPhysical designSynthesisDRC/LVSTiming analysisAnalog simulationMemory designVerificationOver time, you may work .

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
