This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced ASIC Design Engineer (5+ years) to join a small, highly focused team in Edinburgh. The team is developing high-value silicon for what aims to be the world’s first space-based mobile broadband network.
You will be part of a collaborative engineering group working on next-generation silicon, leveraging advanced process technologies to push performance, efficiency, and capability. This is a hands-on role where your design decisions will have a direct impact on delivering a global communications network from space.
Role Overview
As an ASIC Design Engineer, you will contribute to the design and implementation of complex silicon solutions used in space-based communication systems. The role focuses on high-quality RTL development, micro-architecture definition, and close collaboration across multiple engineering disciplines.
You will work closely with architecture, verification, and system teams—both internal and external—to deliver robust, high-performance ASIC and SoC designs from concept through to tape-out.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop high-quality micro-architecture specifications and RTL designs
- Contribute to SoC integration and subsystem development
- Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders across design flows
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years of ASIC/RTL design experience
- Strong understanding of hardware and digital design fundamentals
- Proficiency in SystemVerilog
- Experience with SoC integration
- Background in complex RTL design (e.g. high-speed I/O, CPUs, accelerators, or NoCs)
- Ability to produce clear, high-quality micro-architecture documentation
- Competency in Python
Nice to Have
- Digital signal processing (DSP) experience
- Background in mobile silicon or communications systems
What’s on Offer
- Competitive base salary and RSU package
- Opportunity to work on genuinely groundbreaking technology
- A chance to be part of a fast-moving, start-up environment at the forefront of innovation
This role is best suited to engineers motivated by building cutting-edge technology rather than purely financial gain. You should be comfortable working in a dynamic, start-up setting and excited by the challenges of advanced silicon development.
Please note:
You must have the right to work in the UK and be willing to work onsite in Edinburgh at least 3 days per week.
