Position jobs in United Kingdom

Working for a leader in the Semi's industry, I am looking to recruit a high-level, Senior SOC Architect.

This position can be based in Edinburgh or Cork.

You will be tasked with the definition and development of existing and new SOC product architecture - across a variety of complex digital and high-speed products and applications.

The main focus are the technical requirements, but this position also offers the opportunity for team leadership and management.

Key skills / requirements:

• BSc / MSc / PhD in Micro-electronics, physics, or similar field
• 10+ years' experience in complex SOCs
• Deep understanding of Subsystems, Memory Controllers, and memory architectures (e.g., SRAM, ROM, eFuse)
• Extensive experience with the Digital ASIC Flow, RTL design (Verilog), synthesis, timing closure, and debug methodologies (e.g., DFT, JTAG, Scan, BIST).
• Extensive knowledge of SOC architecture, setup / silicon bring-up, validation, and all associated processes.
• SOC design, system design, architecture, and IP selection & integration
• DSP / signal processing / communication and interconnect protocols - AXI, AMBA, CHI
• Digital-AMS chip development - digital to analog interfaces
• Low-power, performance, and optimization
• Low-level software, firmware, and embedded requirements - drivers, controllers, etc.
• Confident knowledge of a variety of coding languages - C, C++, SystemC, Tcl, Python
• Excellent communication skills, and ability to work across software and hardware teams

Nice to have skills:

• Team leadership / management
