Senior / Staff Digital Design Engineer

Senior / Staff Digital Design Engineer Overview

A leading semiconductor company is seeking a Senior / Staff Digital Design Engineer to contribute to the development of next-generation power management integrated circuits (PMICs). This role offers a unique opportunity to engage in cutting-edge digital IC design, overseeing both existing intellectual property (IP) and new digital designs from initial concept to tape-out.

As part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary engineering team, you will play a vital role in advanced ASIC development, RTL design, low-power digital design, and digital IP architecture for innovative semiconductor products.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design and development of digital cores for advanced power management ICs (PMICs).
• Develop new digital IP while enhancing and maintaining existing IP blocks.
• Define and implement robust block-level digital architectures.
• Write high-quality SystemVerilog RTL for low-power ASIC designs.
• Work closely with Digital Verification Engineers to identify and resolve design issues before tape-out.
• Drive synthesis, timing closure, and Design for Test (DFT) activities.
• Coordinate physical implementation and backend design with external design partners.
• Apply low-power design methodologies, including clock gating and power optimization techniques.
• Produce clear technical documentation and design specifications throughout the development cycle.

Requirements

• A degree in Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline is required, with a preference for MEng qualifications.
• Proven experience in Digital Design Engineering, ASIC Design, or RTL Design within the semiconductor industry.
• Strong expertise in SystemVerilog RTL design across the full digital design and synthesis flow.
• Experience with synchronous and asynchronous digital design techniques.
• Knowledge of low-power digital design methodologies.
• Experience with Cadence design and simulation tools or equivalent EDA tools.
• Scripting experience using Python, TCL, or CSH would be highly advantageous.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate across multidisciplinary engineering teams.

Package

• £65,000–£75,000 basic salary (dependent on experience).
• Performance-related bonus.
• Equity opportunities.
• Comprehensive benefits package.

If you are an experienced Senior Digital Design Engineer, Staff Digital Design Engineer, ASIC Design Engineer, RTL Design Engineer, or Digital IC Design Engineer looking to work on industry-leading semiconductor technology, this is an outstanding opportunity to join an innovative engineering team developing the next generation of power management solutions.
