Position Overview:

This role would ideally be suited to an experienced engineer with recent digital CMOS design experience looking for a new challenge. The candidate should have the potential to lead future digital designs and digital architecture choices working with both internal and external subcontractors.

Personal development opportunities will be available throughout our global international organisation for high performers.

Your personal values must be in line with ours: Agility, Integrity, Excellence throughout and Customers first.

Main Accountabilities

Digital Design

• Participate to the feasibility study of new projects by providing design solutions and development time estimations.
• Designing and implementing digital sequencer, feature and processing functions for imaging (specification, architecture, code, P&R, post layout timing analysis and review of layout, simulation, test strategy, robustness of the design)
• To ensure that designs are right first time or that only a metal fix is required if that has been defined in the programme plan
• Ensure that newly design circuits have been designed for ease of testability.
• Support the camera development, test and characterization team.

Continuous Improvement

• To participate in the continuous improvement of the design flow for space and Astronomy. To ensure that the right tools and methodology are put in place to satisfy the flow requirements.

Innovation

• Protect our intellectual property and hence market position by identifying novel solutions for patent protection
• To contribute to the design of new technology building blocks to ensure that T-e2v can meet the needs of space customers in the future.
