SoC Design Engineer

A unique opportunity has arisen for an SoC Design Engineer to join an early-stage cyber security company building quantum & AI technologies to protect organisations of all sizes, preventing cyber-attacks.

This is a superb time to join as they look to expand their hardware engineering team and are looking for a SoC Hardware Design Engineer who is interested in working with pioneers in the Quantum & AI fields to build their proprietary hardware. You will get to experience an exciting growth journey – you’ll be one of their key early employees and will have the opportunity to influence and shape their technology and the direction of the team as they grow.

The founders are open regarding experience level and are happy to speak with Engineers from a PhD background in Cryptography or with Engineers with +2 years’ experience and tape out practice in the area of RISC-V.

You should have had exposure to SOC microarchitectures (e.g. x86, ARM, RISC, MIPS), your HW engineering skills are complemented by SW (C/ C++/ Assembly, HLS or Python) and you have experience with VHDL/Verilog.

You will be an early employee in the tech team, so your role will be varied! Tasks will include:

• Create industry-defining hardware products.
• Contribute to the design and development of next generation AI & security hardware solutions, focusing on the development and implementation of Integrated Circuits across both FPGAs and ASICs.
• Developing and specifying microarchitectures for their SoC IP.
• Be responsible for taking concepts all the way from ideation to delivery.

Joining an early-stage company, you’ll get a stake in their shared success through their generous employee option programme as well as a competitive base. You must be based in the United Kingdom and have UK working rights to be eligible for this role.
