Digital ASIC Design Engineer

Company: Intellectual Capital Resources
Apply for the Digital ASIC Design Engineer
Location: Cambridgeshire
Job Description:

Overview

In this role you will join a growing UK R&D team to develop high speed communications architectures, taking ideas from early concepts through to production silicon. You will work closely with digital, physical, and mixed-signal engineers in a small, collaborative environment, shaping new approaches rather than implementing established standards. You will balance hands-on digital design with research elements to advance high-performance communications technology. This is a chance to contribute to commercially driven research that translates into future silicon and real impact.

Responsibilities

  • Contribute to digital ASIC design and RTL development
  • Collaborate with digital, physical design, and mixed-signal engineers on high-performance communications tech
  • Investgate new architectures and translate concepts toward production silicon
  • Support cross-disciplinary design efforts and provide hands-on engineering input

Key requirements

  • Strong experience in digital ASIC design and RTL development
  • Background in high speed digital design, SerDes or communications technologies
  • Experience designing complex digital blocks in advanced CMOS technologies
  • Understanding of mixed signal interfaces or blocks interacting with analogue circuitry is desirable
  • Interest in researching new architectures and challenging established approaches
  • Collaborative, hands-on engineering approach
  • Collaborative mindset
  • Hands-on problem solving
  • Cross-functional communication
  • Digital ASIC design
  • RTL development
  • SerDes
