Senior Fpga Asic Design Engineer

AMD AMD · Semiconductors · Penicuik, United Kingdom · Engineering

This role is for a Senior FPGA ASIC Design Engineer at AMD, focusing on the design, integration, and validation of IPs and subsystems for FPGA and ASIC platforms. The role involves technical leadership, mentoring junior engineers, and contributing to advanced projects in markets like wireless communications, aerospace, and defense. While the company mentions AI and next-generation computing, the core responsibilities are in hardware design (FPGA/ASIC) rather than AI/ML model development.

What you'd actually do

  1. Lead technical discussions and collaborate with system architects, hardware, and software engineers to define and deliver new features
  2. Act as a technical mentor to junior engineers through design reviews, best-practice guidance, and day-to-day support
  3. Design and implement high-quality, high-performance RTL for new features, modules, and systems
  4. Develop software and scripts to configure, control, and test hardware modules and systems
  5. Create clear, detailed documentation describing designs and interactions with hardware and software components
