Job description

Sophia Antipolis, France | Hybrid

What you’ll be working on

You’ll contribute to the design and development of advanced Bluetooth / 802.15.4 MAC and PHY modules, including:

• Defining microarchitecture
• Taking ownership of design and verification
• Developing testbenches and supporting code coverage
• Synthesis and co-simulation
• Implementing designs on FPGA for prototyping
• Supporting validation and product certification
• Working closely with architecture, systems, algorithms, software, hardware and validation teams
• Producing documentation covering microarchitecture, interfaces and module-level testing
• Contributing ideas around tools, methodology and engineering processes

What they’re looking for

You’ll ideally have:

• 3+ years of hands-on Digital Design / RTL experience
• Strong Verilog or SystemVerilog
• Experience with ASIC, SoC or FPGA development
• A solid understanding of the digital design flow, including microarchitecture, RTL, testbenches, verification, synthesis and code coverage
• Experience implementing designs on FPGA
• The ability to take ownership of your work and operate with a good level of autonomy
• A degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Embedded Systems or a related field

Experience with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, UWB, 802.15.4, Cellular / 3GPP or other wireless communication standards would be a strong advantage.

Knowledge of SoC architecture, subsystem architecture or IP integration would also be useful.

Why consider it?

This role gives you exposure to considerably more than just RTL implementation.

You’ll have the opportunity to work on microarchitecture, design, verification and FPGA prototyping, while learning from engineers with deep experience in wireless connectivity and semiconductor IP.

It’s a strong environment for someone who wants to develop broader technical ownership and move towards more complex subsystem and architecture work over time.

You’ll also be joining a smaller engineering environment where your work is visible and where you can work closely with teams across the wider product rather than being confined to one narrow area.

Location

Sophia Antipolis, France

Hybrid working, with around 3 days per week onsite.

Candidates will need existing eligibility to work in France, as new visa sponsorship cannot currently be supported.

If you’re a Digital Design Engineer, RTL Design Engineer, ASIC Design Engineer, SoC Design Engineer or FPGA Engineer with around 3+ years of experience and want to work on advanced Bluetooth and wireless IP, get in touch.
