Digital IC Design Engineer
To support the development of our next-generation SoC’s in positioning applications, U-Blox is looking for talented digital design engineers with experience and interest in ASIC design and verification.
To work in u-blox IC team you need to be committed, curious, creative, innovative, enthusiastic about new technologies, striving for excellence and willing to work in multicultural and multi-site context. You will be working in a growing international team where you focus on SoC design, verification and validation.
We encourage you to apply if this role excites you – even if you think you may not meet all the requirements. We are always looking for outstanding individuals and great potentials.
Primary Tasks
- Architect, specify, design and verify IP blocks, subsystems and SoC level solutions
- Gradually develop a deep understanding of the GNSS application and chipset platforms
- Design the digital signal processing hardware for GNSS platforms whilst working in close co-operation with the software team
- Develop, run, debug and maintain dedicated firmware-based tests for our GNSS platforms to validate and verify the functionality and to track/measure KPI (power, mips, …)
- Interact with verification, design and system teams located across Europe
Profile
- PhD/MS or BS in electrical, electronic, or computing engineering.
- Authorized to work in country (Valid work permit, EU citizen)
- 2-4 years of industrial experience. Relevant academic experiences are also welcomed.
- Experienced in ASIC design and verification (from RTL/Verilog to gates). A solid background in digital signal processing is a bonus.
- Hands-on experience in debug and problem investigation using simulation. Experience using silicon and FPGA platforms is a bonus.
- Soft skills:
- Rigorous, Autonomous, Self-motivated, Proactive, and well organized
- Objective driven and team-oriented mindset
- Good oral and written communication (English language)
What are your perks?
- A multicultural and international company with over 50 different nationalities

Senior Embedded Software Engineer
@ Embedd 
What we're looking for
At embedd.it, we power hardware-software integration in embedded devices. We turn fragmented semiconductor chip data into configurable digital twins, then deterministically generate code, tests, and documentation – making integration faster, cheaper, and resilient to supply chain shocks.
We’re looking for a true legend – someone with abstract thinking and deep expertise in low-level software development. You’ll build vendor-agnostic tooling for MCU and peripheral integration to solve hardware-software integration once and for all. We work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generation, compilers, and machine learning. It’s your chance to help redefine how low-level development is done.
Responsibilities
- Drive the architecture of the driver structures and system layout
- Define scalable patterns for cross-architectural integration across bare-metal, Zephyr, Linux, and other environments
- Deconstruct complex SoC device trees and translate hardware descriptions into structured internal models for automated reasoning
- Partner with the ML team to shape data and annotation models for AI-driven data-extraction tooling
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in embedded systems development, including bare-metal and RTOS-based systems
- Proficiency in C/C++
- Familiarity with firmware configuration, SoC bring-up, and system-level debugging
- Hands-on experience with code generation tools, or low-level compiler/decompiler/emulator technologies
- Strong background in embedded toolchains: compilers, linkers, debuggers, and build systems
- Python or scripting for automation and tooling is a plus
- Experience with functional-safety standards is a plus
Why embedd.it?
- Dynamic, venture-backed team of engineers challenging the status quo 🚀
- Work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generators, compilers, and ML 🤖
- Unusual challenges requiring out-of-the-box abstract thinking 🧠
- Competitive compensation: cash + equity 💰
- Remote work possible 🌍
About Us
embedd.it is a UK-based startup reinventing embedded development. Our platform transforms unstructured semiconductor data into structured digital twins, enabling automatic generation of drivers, tests, and documentation. We're building a single, traceable source of truth to make integration fast, vendor-agnostic, and future-proof.
