Senior Digital Design Engineer | HSC
About the role
This role architecturally defines and develops high-speed digital data processing and mixed-signal communication circuits across the design flow from architectural definition through place-and-route. You will partner with analog design teams to create and test high-speed data converters for terrestrial and space applications.
What you'll do
- Lead a digital design team of 2-4 engineers with product ownership and responsibility from definition through release to manufacturing.
- Develop digital architectures, specifications, RTL coding, simulation, synthesis, place-and-route, and timing closure.
- Collaborate with analog team members to verify designs and ensure systems achieve target system-level goals.
- Evaluate results across design phases and silicon evaluation, and work with validation, product engineering, and test engineering teams to enable transfer to production.
- Make team assignments, provide design guidance, establish schedules, and monitor progress throughout the project.
- Work with systems engineers, application engineers, and marketing on product briefs, datasheets, application notes, and product definitions.
What you'll need
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering.
- 8 years of relevant digital design experience.
- Successfully taped out multiple devices.
- A thorough understanding of digital logic design from architectural definition through release to manufacturing.
- Familiarity with the SystemVerilog language.
Nice to have
- Design leadership experience and demonstrated ability to lead and mentor others.
- Good understanding of SystemVerilog.
- Strong programming skills in Perl, Python, TCL, or C.
- Strong grasp of Digital Signal Processing techniques.
- Experience with the Cadence digital design tool suite.

How we counted: 1070 open Digital/RTL Design (RTL Design) roles from 105 employers tracked in the SemiconductorJobs index, counted 14 Nov 2026. Specialty figures count only roles carrying this exact specialty label, so an employer's related work in neighbouring specialties is not included there, and is counted in the wider Digital Design & Verification family row. Days are counted from when our index first saw each posting, not from the employer's original posting date.
