Semiconductor Jobs

IonQ · Oxford

Owns full-chip mixed-signal modelling and verification for cryo-CMOS ASICs used in trapped-ion quantum processors, building Verilog-A/AMS and real-number models correlated against schematic and measured silicon. Leads AMS methodology, sign-off criteria and reviews, runs Cadence AMS/Xcelium-Spectre co-simulation regressions, and mentors engineers through tape-out and bring-up.

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.

Cambridge GaN Devices · Cambridge

Design and layout of GaN power ICs using EDA tools, covering schematic capture, analog simulation, chip layout review, PEX and PLS. The role also involves wafer-level and packaged device testing, SPICE model development, and supporting patent and IP management within a growing R&D engineering team.

Cambridge GaN Devices · Cambridge

Define and architect test hardware for GaN power devices and ICs, covering fixtures, sockets, probing, switching and multi-site parallel setups for static, dynamic and mixed-signal measurements. Lead test hardware workstreams from concept to release, write specifications, review designs, and mentor engineers while shaping the test equipment roadmap.

Renesas Electronics · Edinburgh

Lead the design and verification of CMOS analog blocks for custom mixed-signal ASICs, taking technical ownership of full-chip or major system-level blocks from specification through to production ramp. The role combines hands-on circuit design with mentoring a team of engineers, working alongside digital, layout, DFT and test teams, and driving silicon debug and characterisation.

V7 Recruitment · Birmingham · £45,000 – £50,000 pa

Designs new electronic products and improves existing ones, taking requirements through specification, test plans, component selection, schematic and PCB design, and analogue, digital, power and interface circuits. Works with embedded C or C++ firmware and is mentored by a Senior Designer within a small design team, fully remotely for a UK engineering and manufacturing business.

Enterprise Recruitment · Didcot · £45,000 – £65,000 pa

Source, evaluate and procure electronic components such as PCBs, semiconductors, connectors and sensors, interpreting technical drawings, BOMs and specifications.

Pure Resourcing Solutions · Heathfield, Cambridgeshire · £65,000 – £500,000 pa

Develops FPGA IP and delivers projects end to end, from concept and architecture through validation and ongoing support. Day-to-day work targets AMD (Xilinx) silicon, often Zynq SoC devices, with a firm requirement for digital signal processing and close collaboration with hardware, software and systems engineers. RF systems experience is a bonus, and there is scope to lead and mentor junior colleagues.

SoCode · Cambridge · £50 – £65 ph

Embedded within an established electronics team at a UK medical technology business, supporting design capture and review of complex electronics from requirements and schematic capture through design reviews and PCBA layout to board bring-up and system test. Requires broad electronics design experience with depth in areas such as embedded microprocessors, motor drive circuits, FPGA design or analogue sensor interfaces, using Altium Designer and DFx/EMC principles.

Talent Smart · Woking · £45,000 – £50,000 pa

Support the development, improvement and introduction of manufacturing processes, focusing on parylene conformal coating applications. The role blends technical problem-solving, project work and customer interaction, working with manufacturing, equipment engineering, quality and sales teams. Projects span laser cutting, 3D printing and process documentation.

Hays Construction and Property · Bristol · £48,000 – £60,000 pa

Oversee building services and critical engineering infrastructure at a highly technical manufacturing site, including clean rooms, labs and HVAC, electrical, gas and water systems. Lead planned and reactive maintenance, manage outsourced partners, budgets and compliance, and develop an internal facilities team while supporting incident response and capital planning.

Reperio Human Capital · Cork, Ireland · £86,324 – £103,589 pa

Own verification of mixed-signal ICs from test planning through final sign-off, building and maintaining UVM testbenches, coverage models and regression suites. Work closely with analog and digital design teams to catch issues early, track coverage closure, and help shape the team's verification approach while supporting other engineers.

Newton Colmore · Cambridge

Designs and develops FPGA firmware for defence technologies spanning communications, sensors and detection systems, working within a small multidisciplinary engineering team. Uses VHDL or Verilog and collaborates with internal teams and external groups, with security clearance required and room to grow as the company expands.

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.
