Digital ASIC Design Engineer

There is an exciting opportunity for a Digital Design Engineer to join a growing advanced R&D team in the UK. The team is working on next high speed communications and circuit architectures, with a focus on developing new approaches rather than simply implementing established standards. The work combines hands on digital design with a strong research element, giving engineers the opportunity to investigate new architectures and take ideas from early concepts through towards production silicon. The Digital Design Engineer will work closely with experienced engineers across digital, physical design and mixed signal disciplines, contributing to the development of high performance communications technology. What makes this role interesting: Work on new high speed circuit and communications architectures Significant freedom to investigate and develop new technical approaches Research is commercially driven, with a clear route from R&D into future silicon Small, collaborative R&D environment where engineers have real technical influence Close interaction with engineers across digital, physical design and mixed signal What we are looking for

Strong experience in digital ASIC design and RTL development Background in high speed digital design, SerDes or communications related technologies Experience designing complex digital blocks in advanced CMOS technologies Understanding of mixed signal interfaces or digital blocks interacting closely with analogue circuitry is desirable An interest in researching new architectures and challenging established approaches A collaborative, hands on approach to engineering
