Job Description

About the Role

We are looking for a passionate and driven Graduate Digital Design Engineer to join our hardware development team. This is an exciting opportunity to work on cutting-edge digital and mixed-signal designs and learn from experienced engineers in a collaborative and innovative environment. You will contribute to the definition and design of complex ASIC systems and gain hands-on experience with industry-standard tools and methodologies.

Responsibilities

  • Interpret high-level requirements to create detailed micro-architecture specifications of digital control and data-path systems.
  • Develop synthesizable RTL using SystemVerilog for ASIC digital blocks, ensuring compliance with functional, timing, power, and area constraints.
  • Produce clear and complete design documentation, participate in design reviews, and follow all design processes.
  • Collaborate with wider digital design team, as well as analogue, physical design, verification, and DFT teams to ensure seamless integration and sign-off.
  • Maintain quality of deliverables using industry standard sign-off tools and methodologies; including LINT, CDC, and formal verification checks.
  • Develop and run simulations of designs; and perform debugging to identify and resolve issues.
  • Learn and apply best practices in digital design, and contribute to process improvements.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
