Semtech · Bristol

Lead bench PVT characterization for high-speed optical and electrical signal integrity products, developing automated test environments and analyzing complex datasets. Work with an international team across the UK, Canada, US and Mexico, using Python automation and mentoring junior engineers in a lab-based NPI role.

Semtech · Bristol

Architect test strategies for high-speed mixed-signal and RF SiGe products, from first silicon to mass production, covering 200Gbps+ SerDes, CDRs and signal conditioning. Sets DFT and testability standards, builds reusable test IP, and leads NPI transfers to high-volume OSATs while mentoring engineers.

Analog Devices · Hayes

Field Application Engineer supporting regional accounts across the UK, working with Account Managers and Business Unit specialists to solve complex application-level problems and drive design wins. Involves building customer relationships, identifying new business opportunities, training customers and presenting at seminars, with around 10% travel.

Analog Devices · Edinburgh

Join a Consumer Audio design team in Edinburgh to work on real mixed-signal IC development, from circuit architecture research and feasibility studies to transistor-level design, simulation and verification of analog blocks. You will build testbenches, analyse trade-offs around noise, distortion and power, and collaborate with layout engineers through physical implementation and design reviews.

IonQ · Oxford

Owns the full lifecycle of electrical reliability fixes on operational trapped-ion quantum computers, from triaging and root-causing control and drive-electronics faults to designing, prototyping and retrofitting permanent solutions. Works across Operations, Science and Manufacturing on fleet-wide upgrades, standardising hardware and building telemetry to reduce downtime.

IonQ · Oxford

Integrate all features needed to operate quantum computers into complex multi-layer ion-trapping chips, guiding designs from requirements through layout and tape-out. Work closely with scientists and fabrication engineers on metal-track routing and photonics/CMOS interfaces, using GDSFactory in Python and Cadence. Hybrid role, three days per week in the Oxford office.

Lumai · Oxford

Owns signal and power integrity across high-speed boards and packages, running pre-layout channel studies, post-layout SI analysis with IBIS-AMI models, and PDN impedance and DC drop work for high-current ASIC and FPGA rails. Channels span chip, package, interposer, board and optical engine, with heavy bench correlation using VNAs, TDRs and oscilloscopes to feed design rules.

Renesas Electronics · Cambridge

Designs, builds and maintains a federated platform API, gateway service, SDKs, MCP servers and API clients, working across C#, Python and Golang. The role also covers an applications framework, BI analytics reporting and a new developer centre, with heavy cross-team collaboration and direct customer adoption support.

Lumai · Oxford

Owns embedded software for a novel optical AI accelerator, writing Linux kernel and bare-metal device drivers, firmware for control processors, and deterministic RTOS control tasks. Leads board support package bring-up on new custom silicon revisions, debugging with JTAG, scopes and logic analysers, and sets the embedded team's coding standards and test methodology.
