What kind of experience is needed for RISC-V jobs ?
Hi, I’m currently a Compiler Engineer that worked on different NPU / GPU projects at several big US companies and startups. I always had a passion for RISC-V, I studied it at university, read several books and implemented some personal projects on my free time, I event got to read some related papers for research, but I never worked on an actual RISC-V project.
Recently I came across a few European RISC-V Compiler roles that seemed amazing (I’m European). I applied to all but didn’t get a single interview.
Given that all I have is a passion for RISC-V and some personal projects, without any prior work experience, it’s not that surprising.
Do you have any advice on what I could do in my free time to improve my skills / knowledge and hopefully be able to land some interviews in the future ?

Telegram hopes to raise $1bn with a convertible bond private placement
The super secure UAE-based Telegram messenger service, developed by Russian-born software icon Pavel Durov, is looking to raise $1bn through a bond placement to a limited number of investors from Russia, Europe, Asia and the Middle East, the Kommersant daily reported citing unnamed sources on February 18, 2021.The issue reportedly comprises exchange bonds that could be converted into equity in the messaging service that is currently 100% owned by Durov and his brother Nikolai.Kommersant reports that the price of the conversion would be at a 10% discount to a potential IPO should it happen within five years.The minimum bond placement is said to be set at $50mn, but could be lowered to $10mn. Five-year bonds could carry an annual coupon of 7-8%.
Start with a fresh view of investing strategy. The combination of risks and fads this quarter looks to be topping. That means the future is ready to move in.Likely, there will not be a wholesale shift. Company actions will aim to benefit from economic growth, inflationary pressures and a return of market-determined interest rates. In turn, all of that should drive the stock market and investment returns higher.
