ASIC Design Engineer (Senior/Staff/Principal levels)
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a start-up who are just over 2 years old, as they make technological breakthroughs in security with a product line built on CHERI technology and RISC‑V cores.
They have strong funding behind them and a leadership team made up of experts in processor design and formal methods as well as a CEO who brings over 30 years of semiconductor experience from world renown companies and start-ups. With huge growth plans across the Silicon Design team this is a fantastic time to join the business!
I am seeking an Engineer who has experience in the full ASIC flow.
Ideally you will have experience in end-to-end ASIC development, from RTL through to GDSII, including synthesis, DFT, floorplanning, place and route, static timing analysis, and tapeout support. This is a hands-on technical role, ideal for someone with a deep understanding of digital design and physical implementation, and a passion for building cutting-edge silicon.
