At Kandou, we are redefining the economics of AI infrastructure. Our mission is to democratise AI by significantly reducing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of hardware systems - a critical barrier to scalable adoption.
Our proprietary MIMO-over-copper technology powers a high-performance, Chiplet-based AI memory fabric that is both scalable and energy-efficient. Unlike traditional interconnects, our solution reduces power consumption significantly while preserving high bandwidth and ultra-low latency - unlocking unprecedented efficiency for AI training and inference at scale.
Kandou’s architecture is not just an incremental improvement - it’s a foundational shift in how AI hardware is built for the future.

Experience designing digital circuits for multi-gigabit serial data-link transceivers, DDR, or high-performance memory interfaces.
Experience with industry-standard EDA tools for design, simulation, and verification.
Strong background in complex digital system design and verification.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with Industry Standard design tools.
Experience with multi-gigabit serial data transceivers.
Exposure to analog/digital control interfaces.
Knowledge of synthesis, static timing analysis (STA), and signal processing techniques.
Familiarity with verification methodologies and tools.
Technical Skills:
RTL design expertise including CDC analysis and linting.
Strong scripting and automation skills (Python preferred).
Solid understanding of high-speed, low-power digital design techniques.
Ability to translate system-level requirements into detailed digital implementations.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, and debugging skills.
Effective communication and collaboration abilities.
