Holt Executive · Farnborough · £80,000 – £90,000 pa

Owns FPGA solutions end to end, from requirements capture and architecture through VHDL implementation, verification, hardware integration and production. Works in a multidisciplinary team on secure digital design for cyber and information-assurance applications, coordinating other engineers and external suppliers, with four days a week onsite in Farnborough.

Forefront RF · Cambridge

Designs and develops RF front-end circuits and functional blocks, integrating them into low-loss, high-performance multi-chip modules. Works closely with IC designers, systems, algorithm and software teams to optimise module performance and define test plans in a fast-moving fabless semiconductor start-up.

White Label Recruitment · Winsford · £35,000 – £60,000 pa

Take electronic hardware from specification through simulation and productionisation within a small, multi-disciplinary development team. Work spans analogue and low-noise circuit design, high-voltage power supplies, multilayer surface-mount PCBs, FPGAs, microcontrollers and C/C++/C# firmware, plus product validation and international certification.

Pragmatic Semiconductor · Durham

Responsible for maintaining, installing and fault-finding 300mm photolithography equipment including steppers, wafer tracks and bake tools, while supporting production operators and minimising tool downtime. Involves training technicians, developing maintenance procedures and reporting on equipment KPIs within a cleanroom semiconductor scale-up environment.

Pragmatic Semiconductor · Durham

Operate die prep tools and equipment, perform wafer inspection under a microscope, handle wafers and carry out manual tag assembly on a continental shift pattern. Work to SOPs, run process checks and keep activity logs in a lab environment, with full training provided and no formal qualifications required.

Octagon Group · Manchester · £30,000 – £40,000 pa

Supports yield and quality improvements across wafer fabrication and assembly, reviewing lots on hold and leading root cause analysis and corrective actions. Maintains automotive process controls, PROMIS routes and yield reports, and works with Python/R and SPC tools on new product introduction and Six Sigma projects in a cleanroom manufacturing setting.

Newton Colmore · Cambridge

Design and develop FPGA firmware for defence technologies spanning communications, sensors and detection systems, working within a small multidisciplinary engineering team. The role involves VHDL or Verilog development and collaboration with internal teams and external groups, with security clearance required. Candidates from non-defence sectors are welcome.

Expert Employment · Haslington · £42,000 – £68,000 pa
