Cambridge Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom Codasip Full time

About our UK Design Centres:

Our UK design centres in Cambridge and Bristol were set up in early 2022 to develop high performance, low power embedded and application CPU cores from scratch. We are embarking on clean-sheet designs, and need people who can establish high-quality working practices as they explore new ground under the guidance of the Senior CPU Design Manager. These projects are highly complex, with usually one person being responsible for owning a portion of the design.

YOUR ROLE:

We’re looking for Senior Hardware Engineers to join us in our Cambridge office. You’ll interact and collaborate with other engineers from a range of disciplines across Europe as part of an international team to find solutions. We hire really bright, highly motivated self-starters who enjoy working on something revolutionary in an innovative company.

  • To be responsible for the microarchitecture definition and implementation of RISC-V processors and extensions
  • Processor development within the Codasip Architectural Language (CodAL)
  • Undertaking design synthesis and results analysis to ensure PPA targets can be met
  • Working closely with the verification team on verification planning, debugging and final sign-off
  • Technical specification and documentation writing
  • Participate in design and verification reviews
  • Be responsible for defining, estimating and tracking of own work

YOU SHOULD HAVE:

  • Over 5 years recent and relevant module design experience within at least one HDL (VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog)
  • Knowledge of computer systems and architecture
  • Ability to write clear and concise code
  • Experience with digital circuit simulation
  • User knowledge of Linux
  • Knowledge of versioning tools (Git, SVN)
  • Knowledge of scripting languages (Shell, Bash, Python)
  • Analytical thinking, self-sufficiency, team collaboration
  • Ability to work across teams to debug issues and find root causes

NICE-TO-HAVE:

  • Knowledge of RISC-V instruction set
  • Advanced knowledge of computer systems and architecture
  • Experience of Synthesis, Design for Test and Timing Analysis
  • Experience of low power design techniques
  • Experience of Formal verification techniques
  • Knowledge of C/C++

What’s in it for you?

Joining Codasip’s founding UK team is a chance to challenge yourself to work on complicated projects and structure how we do design. The best candidates for us are decisive, proactive, comfortable with ambiguity, opinionated yet collaborative and passionate about continuous improvement as we scale up and disrupt the semiconductor industry.

Please note this position can be based in our Cambridge office. It is a hybrid role where you will be expected to be in the office a few days per week, with flexible work-from-home options available.
