Semiconductor Jobs

Analog Devices · Edinburgh

Work alongside experienced engineers on the design, simulation, and characterization of high-performance analog and mixed-signal ICs, including amplifiers, filters, data converters, and clocking solutions. Gain hands-on experience with Cadence and SPICE across circuit design, layout, silicon validation, and laboratory testing throughout the full IC development lifecycle.

Analog Devices · Edinburgh

Hands-on internship in a design verification team, validating IP and subsystem-level designs for high-performance semiconductor products. You will develop System Verilog/UVM testbenches, run simulations, debug failures, create directed and constrained-random tests, and track functional, code and assertion coverage while supporting regression automation with scripting.

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.

Pragmatic Semiconductor · Durham

Owns metal-oxide PVD process development, qualification and sustaining on 300mm production tools, defining process windows and driving SPC, Cpk and root-cause investigations for yield-limiting film issues. Combines deep technical leadership of reactive sputtering with line management of a small deposition team, partnering with equipment, integration and reliability engineers.

Semtech · Bristol

Drive validation strategy for next-generation high-speed semiconductor devices, architecting end-to-end test solutions spanning software, hardware and documentation. Build Python or LabVIEW automation, take precision lab measurements at 10Gbit/s and above, and apply signal integrity expertise to schematic entry and PCB layout in Altium. Lead validation reviews and mentor engineers within a Bristol R&D team.

Winsearch · Manchester · £50,000 – £57,000 pa

Designs analogue and digital circuits, schematics and PCB layouts for advanced scientific instrumentation, working alongside physicists, software and mechanical engineers. Owns designs from specification through prototyping, testing and volume manufacture, with FPGA work and high-speed digital design. Based in a collaborative R&D team supporting products across their full lifecycle.

Platform Recruitment · Cambridge · £55,000 – £75,000 pa

Join a multidisciplinary R&D team tackling complex deep tech engineering challenges, designing and implementing systems for advanced products. Work across analogue and digital hardware, embedded software, control and communications, while mentoring junior and undergraduate engineers and liaising with technical and non-technical stakeholders.

KBM Resourcing · Germany

Design and verify FPGA solutions using VHDL/Verilog for high-integrity aerospace and defence systems. Work within a multidisciplinary team to implement real-time, embedded FPGA functionality, ensuring robust integration and traceability across the development lifecycle.

University of Warwick · Coventry · £21,805 pa

Develops medium-voltage solid-state transformer cells for hyperscale AI data centres and net-zero grids, tackling high-frequency power conversion, compact magnetic links and electrical-thermal degradation under high-dv/dt stress. Combines multi-physics finite-element modelling in ANSYS/COMSOL with experimental validation in a high-voltage power electronics lab, culminating in a scaled hardware prototype.

Dynex Semiconductor · Lincoln

Support the design, simulation and testing of high-power semiconductor assemblies, controlled rectifiers and power conversion equipment, working alongside experienced engineers from concept through customer acceptance. Uses tools such as PLECS, LTspice and MATLAB/Simulink for converter analysis, thermal calculations and validation against customer requirements.
