Semiconductor Jobs

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.

Analog Devices · Edinburgh

Join a collaborative Edinburgh team developing low-power analog and power-management IP for highly integrated mixed-signal ICs. The intern contributes to architecture, transistor-level design, simulation and verification of DC/DC converter IP such as buck, boost and buck-boost topologies, including analog sub-circuits like error amplifiers, comparators and gate drivers. Work spans behavioural modelling, layout review and potentially laboratory silicon evaluation.

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 · Edinburgh

Provide technical leadership for a global engineering compute and design-data-management environment, combining hands-on CAD work with infrastructure ownership. You will own Perforce Helix and IPLM methodologies, build Python and shell automation, and guide migration from legacy data platforms. The role spans Linux compute environments, EDA tool configuration, documentation and training across distributed semiconductor teams.

Renesas Electronics · Swindon

Provide technical leadership for a global engineering compute and design-data-management environment, combining hands-on CAD work with Perforce Helix and IPLM-based data management. You will develop Linux-based engineering environments, Python and shell automation, project/workspace methodologies, and migration paths from legacy platforms, while supporting EDA tool integration and training engineering teams.

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.

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.

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.

Semtech · Bristol

Lead a Bristol team of analog IC design engineers, spanning associate to senior level, with direct oversight of performance, development and recruitment. The role is hands-on, guiding complex design work while managing project schedules, budgets and cross-functional priorities for optical communications ICs such as laser drivers, TIAs and transceivers.

Cambridge GaN Devices · Cambridge

Owns the planning and delivery of internal product and technology development projects plus public-funded R&D projects, supporting them from concept and requirements through to completion. Coordinates cross-functional teams, runs project reviews and status meetings, maintains documentation, handles financial reporting and budget tracking, and helps coordinate bid-writing for public-funded work. Reports directly to the VP of R&D and helps shape the project management function as the company grows.

Kingston Barnes Ltd · Pilning · £32,000 – £36,000 pa

Assemble and wire high-tech semiconductor production systems, including soldering, crimping and looming, while reading electrical drawings and fault-finding to implement corrective action. Joins a production team building complex system configurations for micro and nanostructure tooling. Requires a time-served electrical apprenticeship or Level 3 qualification.

Vacgen · East Sussex

Hands-on inspection of precision-engineered components and assemblies against drawings and specifications, using Faro Arm/CMM metrology equipment and specialised test gear. Involves investigating non-conformances, root cause analysis, and working with Production and Engineering to reduce defects in an ISO 9001 environment serving vacuum technology for science and space applications.

Baltic Recruitment · Wallsend · £32,000 pa

Supports the Quality Manager with QMS activities, ISO 9001 preparation, internal and supplier audits, non-conformities, corrective actions and continuous improvement. Acts as the main site contact for calibration of measuring equipment and MFCs/gas control equipment, and provides QC inspection cover including final, in-process and goods-inwards checks, FAIs and Gauge R&R studies.

Cambridge GaN Devices · Cambridge

Senior leadership role owning the packaging function for GaN power semiconductors, combining people leadership with hands-on design of wirebond, flip chip and embedded packages. Involves multiphysics simulation, supplier development, qualification testing and roadmap input, working with internal teams and overseas partners from the Cambridge office.

Morson Edge · Edinburgh · £51 – £70 ph

Develops firmware and FPGA designs for next-generation surveillance radar systems, covering requirement capture, architecture definition, design verification and integration with hardware and software. Works closely with mixed-discipline teams, mentors junior engineers and helps shape firmware processes across UK-wide delivery teams. Based on-site in Edinburgh with some travel flexibility.
