  • Proven FPGA expertise, as well as SoC architecture.
  • Extensive experience in the design & debugging of digital/analog hardware interfaces.
  • Understanding of signal processing, plus algorithm design & optimisation.
  • Skilled in VHDL, Verilog or a similar hardware description language.
  • Expert in design & verification, using tools like Xilinx, System Verilog and UVM.
  • Familiarity with embedded software development, using C/C++.
  • Proficiency in simulation tooling, using things like ModelSim or QuestaSim.
  • Any awareness of quantum computing, photonics or cryptography would be useful.


What will my day-to-day look like?


This position is involved from PoC design to production. You’ll design & implement FPGA systems for several applications related to cyber security & computing, with targeted fields including communication, HPC, simulations and automotive systems. Internal stakeholder engagement is paramount as you’ll engage with the software & hardware teams to ensure high-level FPGA architecture. You’ll be test-driven, often building simulations to ensure functional compliance, as well as preparing meaningful documentation to provide scalability as the team continues to grow. Lots of variety in a start-up environment, with fantastic scope for internal progression depending on your ambitions


What do I get in return?


As well as a competitive salary in line with your experience, the team are advocates for flexible working and try to accommodate all personal circumstances where they can. Their benefits package is also tailored, giving you an allowance to choose the benefits that suit you best.
