- ASIC frontend design - ASIC backend design - Post & Pre-Silicon devpt validation - Bootrom - Firmware devpt These are the Job Profiles for META described, first 3 of them require VLSI specialization (HDL) I think..! If yes, then it basically requires HDL specialization & not Embedded C ... So its only for Firmware Developers. Correct me if wrong :)

Post and Pre silicon validation teams are sw team. They use C programming to write sw that exercise hardware directly.
In Nicolai's podcast with Anthropic CEO, I recall him mentioning cost is never an issue, but compute is.!
Yes for short-term the cost has taken back seat given everyone throwing load of cash into it. The compute power and thermal is more imp now…
