Semiconductor Jobs

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.

Analog Devices · Edinburgh

Placement students work alongside engineering teams on real, challenging assignments, contributing to product development across electronics, software and computer science. Interns are paired with experienced mentors and treated as extended interview candidates for future full-time roles, with work spanning IoT, automotive radar, healthcare and 5G systems.

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.

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.

Lumai · Oxford

Own a Python-based performance and power modelling framework predicting how photonic AI hardware runs real inference workloads, giving architecture and compiler teams a shared source of truth for latency, throughput and power. Model compute engines, interconnect, memory and bridge interfaces, validate against RTL or emulation, and run benchmarks such as UL Procyon, Geekbench AI and LLMs.

Platform Recruitment · Southampton · £30,000 – £35,000 pa

Manufacture specialist optical devices across a production facility and university cleanroom, running wafer and chip-level processes such as photolithography, sputtering, furnace processing, dicing, polishing and inspection. Maintain production logs, quality documentation and cleanroom standards while reporting process issues and supporting continuous improvement in an advanced photonics and quantum technology setting.

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.

Pragmatic Semiconductor · Durham

Operates production equipment in a 24/7 cleanroom, preparing, handling and processing substrates to standard operating procedures. Monitors equipment performance, logs process data into a Factory MES and maintains safe working practices. Suits those with lean, high-volume manufacturing experience; semiconductor or optical microscope skills are a plus.
