Join a fast-growing fabless semiconductor start-up in Cambridge, Bristol, or Edinburgh as a Digital IC Design Verification Engineer. Work on next-generation AI accelerator ASICs, shape verification strategies from day one, and contribute to high-performance AI hardware with real-world impact.
We are supporting a fast-growing fabless chip start-up developing next-generation AI ASICs. We are looking for talented Digital IC Design Verification Engineers to join the team and help ensure first-silicon success.
What You’ll Do
*Verify AI accelerator and SoC designs
*Build SystemVerilog/UVM testbenches and verification environments
*Perform coverage-driven and assertion-based verification
*Debug hardware-software interactions and collaborate with architecture, RTL, and software teams
*Develop scalable verification frameworks from simulation to post-silicon
What We’re Looking For
*Experience in digital IC design verification (SystemVerilog/UVM)
*Knowledge of Python/C++ (Perl/TCL a plus)
*Understanding of computer architecture, memory hierarchies, and bus protocols (AMBA/AXI, NoC)
*Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering or related field
*Strong problem-solving skills and ability to collaborate within a team
*Desirable: Experience with AI accelerator IP, formal verification, and low-power verification techniques
Why Join Us
*Work on next-generation AI accelerator silicon
*High ownership and technical impact
*Collaborative, fast-paced start-up environment
