Join Graphcore as a Hardware Development Engineer, where you will design circuit solutions for Graphcore processor systems and validation platforms. Your work will shape production systems and test boards used across development, validation, and customer enablement. You will collaborate with silicon, architecture, software, and PCB CAD specialists, and make design decisions grounded in evidence. This role offers flexible working arrangements, private medical insurance, a pension plan, income protection, and opportunities for progression and personal development.
While we have outlined a set of requirements, we value transferable skills and diverse experiences. If you meet most of our essential criteria, we encourage you to submit an application and showcase how your background makes you a strong candidate
Ownership mindset, clear communication, and the confidence to challenge, decide, and work across disciplines
Responsibilities
- Concevoir des solutions de circuit pour les systèmes de processeurs Graphcore et les plateformes de validation.
- Transformer les exigences du système en schémas, contraintes de mise en page et matériel testable.
- Définir les plans de validation, exécuter les campagnes de laboratoire, déboguer les prototypes et interpréter les résultats.
- Understanding of server architecture, such as BMC, NIC and SSD, with SERDES experience adding further value
Requirements
- This role suits someone who likes owning problems from first schematic to mass production readiness. Few roles connect board design, bring-up, validation, and production so directly
- Ability to script tests and analyse results using Linux, Python, Bash and Excel
- Experience developing processor-based systems and working with interfaces such as Ethernet, PCIe, DDR, USB, QSPI and JTAG
- Practical lab depth in bring-up, debug, margin testing, and validation using oscilloscopes, logic analysers and signal generators
- Strong digital circuit design and validation skills, including DCDC regulators, power delivery, resets, clocks, and control interfaces
