Application Specific Integrated Circuit Design Engineer

IP Design Engineer

I am seeking several ASIC Design Engineers to join a fast-moving, venture-backed semiconductor startup founded by serial entrepreneurs with a vision to accelerate intelligent computing in the emerging chiplet era.

This is an exciting time to be one of the early Engineers into a UK IP Team . Their focus is on unified fabric solutions for both single-die and multi-die systems. They design and license disruptive IP for semiconductor chips.

I am seeking ASIC Design Engineers with strong expertise in microarchitecture and RTL coding. You must come from a background in IP Design. You will play a key role in shaping company technology portfolio, contributing both technical depth and creativity to solutions.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop microarchitectures for highly configurable IPs
• Implement RTL designs optimised for performance, power, and area

Qualifications & Skills

• BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science
• 5+ years’ hands-on experience in microarchitecture and RTL development
• Strong proficiency in Verilog and SystemVerilog
• Familiarity with industry-standard EDA tools and methodologies
• Experience with large, high-speed, pipelined, and low-power designs
• Deep understanding of on-chip interconnects and NoCs
• Experience designing IP blocks
• (Nice to have) IP Block design for caches, coherency, memory subsystems, and interconnects
• Knowledge of RAS, QoS in fabrics, and PCIe/IO (a plus)
• Familiarity with Python

Any experience with LLM accelerator chips, RISC-V processors, Cache and AMBA protocols will be advantageous.

As well as working for a technologically advanced company with fantastic career opportunities, on offer is a competitive base salary and share options and a paid bonus.

For UK Nationals, office location is Cambridge with fully remote and hybrid options also available.
