Developing cutting edge RTL for high-performance low latency applications

This is a senior engineering role based in Cambridge, UK, working as part of an international team of software and hardware design engineers. The company’s focus is in high-performance, low latency technologies, with an interest in parallel processing, algorithmic efficiency, data throughput, and network performance.

You’d work alongside senior software engineers in Cambridge, and fellow hardware engineers in Europe. As the team grows, more peers in hardware would join you in the UK office.

Your CV will show your:

  • Good degree in electronics or another technical subject from a top university

  • Extensive experience developing complex and well-structured RTL in SystemVerilog, Verilog or VHDL, with particular attention to design approach and performance constraints

    And as a skilled FPGA Design Engineer you will also have, as your CV demonstrates:

  • A strong understanding of digital logic, synchronous design, and hardware architecture

  • Good experience with Xilinx and/or Intel (Altera) FPGAs and relevant tools

  • Digital design and verification flow experience, from micro-architectures’ definition through to RTL development, creation of test benches, simulation, synthesis, place and route, timing analysis and emulation.

  • Excellent analytical thinking, problem-solving and troubleshooting skills with an aptitude to resolve complex issues.

    Additional experience with Python scripting, multi clock, cross clock domain and/or asynchronous execution and/or PHY networking is beneficial. This is a Cambridge, UK-based position offering hybrid working options, and requiring full existing work permission without sponsorship.

    Another top job from ECM, the high-tech recruitment experts.

Where to Advertise Edge Computing Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise edge computing jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and channels that reach embedded, IoT, 5G MEC and edge AI engineering talent. Edge computing sits at the intersection of embedded systems, networking, cloud infrastructure and real-time data processing — and the professionals who specialise in it are a small, highly technical community not well served by general job boards. Candidates with genuine edge and IoT expertise are rarely browsing general platforms, and roles in this space are frequently misunderstood or miscategorised by non-specialist recruiters. This guide, published by EdgeComputingJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise edge computing roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Edge Computing Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Edge Computing Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the IoT, 5G and edge AI hiring trends shaping UK edge computing careers over the next three years. Edge computing is quietly becoming one of the most consequential technology shifts of the decade — and the jobs market is starting to reflect that. As the limitations of centralised cloud infrastructure become apparent across industries that require real-time processing, ultra-low latency, and data sovereignty, the demand for professionals who can design, build, and manage computing at the edge has moved from niche to mainstream. But the edge computing jobs market of 2026 is not yet the mature, well-defined landscape that cloud computing has become. It is still forming. New architectures are emerging, standards are being established, and the range of industries deploying edge infrastructure is expanding rapidly — from manufacturing and telecommunications to healthcare, retail, autonomous vehicles, and smart cities. That creates a particular kind of opportunity for job seekers: the chance to build deep expertise in a discipline that is growing faster than the talent pipeline serving it. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where edge computing is heading — which use cases are driving commercial deployment, which technologies are defining the architecture of distributed systems, and how the skills required to work at the edge differ meaningfully from those that served professionals well in centralised cloud environments. This article breaks down what the UK edge computing jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
