If you enjoy technically challenging RTL and mixed-signal integration work, but also want to be part of a collaborative, engineering-led team where your experience genuinely carries weight. This opportunity is worth exploring.

A well-established semiconductor design team in Edinburgh is looking for a Staff Digital Design Engineer to work on advanced mixed-signal and power management products in cutting-edge process nodes.

This is a senior technical role offering high levels of ownership, complex design challenges, and the opportunity to influence both product development and the growth of the wider engineering team.

The work combines low-power digital design with complex mixed-signal integration challenges, working closely with Analog, Verification, and Physical Design teams throughout the full chip development lifecycle.

Why Engineers are interested

  • Strong engineering culture with experienced technical leadership
  • Opportunity to mentor and support junior engineers as the team grows
  • High level of technical ownership and visibility
  • Long-term product development work on complex semiconductor devices
  • Collaborative, low-bureaucracy environment
  • Hybrid working with flexibility around core office hours
  • Edinburgh-based design centre within one of the UK’s strongest semiconductor hubs

Key experience

  • 10+ years’ experience in Digital IC/SoC Design
  • Strong Verilog/SystemVerilog RTL design expertise
  • Experience with ASIC or complex SoC development
  • Low-power digital design experience
  • RTL integration, simulation, and debug experience
  • Mixed-signal semiconductor experience beneficial

The role

  • Low-power RTL design and digital integration
  • Full chip development from architecture through to silicon
  • Power, area, and performance optimisationCollaboration with Analog, Verification, and Physical Design teams
  • Technical leadership, reviews, and mentoring

The team works onsite together three days per week, helping maintain close collaboration across engineering while still offering flexibility around working hours and commuting times.

This role would suit a senior engineer looking for challenging silicon development work, strong technical peers, and the opportunity to make a visible impact within a respected semiconductor design team.
