Senior Logic Design Engineer

Ciklum is looking for a Senior Logic Design Engineer to join our team full-time in Ukraine.

We are a custom product engineering company that supports both multinational organizations and scaling startups to solve their most complex business challenges. With a global team of over 4,000 highly skilled developers, consultants, analysts and product owners, we engineer technology that redefines industries and shapes the way people live.

About the role:

We are looking for an experienced Senior Logic Design Engineer to contribute to the development of next-generation FPGA and ASIC-based control platforms.

Our client is an innovative technology company developing advanced control and measurement systems for quantum computing. Its hardware and software platforms enable precise, real-time control of complex quantum systems, supporting the evolution of quantum computing from individual qubits to large-scale architectures.

In this role, you will design and optimize high-performance digital logic with stringent latency and timing requirements. You will work closely with system architects, verification engineers, software developers, and hardware specialists in an international engineering environment.

Responsibilities:

• Design and implement complex, configurable, low-latency RTL modules using SystemVerilog
• Develop digital logic for high-performance FPGA and ASIC applications, including signal processing, waveform generation, and real-time control
• Participate in the complete RTL development lifecycle, from architecture and microarchitecture definition to implementation and verification
• Optimize RTL designs for timing, latency, resource utilization, and power efficiency
• Perform logic synthesis, timing analysis, and optimization to meet design constraints
• Collaborate with verification engineers to ensure functional correctness and comprehensive test coverage
• Analyze system-level and software requirements and implement appropriate hardware-software interfaces
• Integrate proprietary digital IP into complex FPGA/ASIC architectures
• Participate in design reviews, debugging, and continuous improvement of engineering processes

Requirements:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience
• 4+ years of professional experience in FPGA or ASIC digital logic design
• Strong practical experience in RTL development using SystemVerilog (mandatory)
• Solid understanding of digital logic design, computer architecture, and RTL microarchitecture
• Experience with logic synthesis, static timing analysis (STA), and timing optimization
• Practical experience with FPGA or ASIC design and implementation workflows
• Understanding of clock-domain crossing (CDC), synchronous digital design, and hardware interfaces
• Experience with simulation-based RTL verification and debugging
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills
• English proficiency sufficient for effective collaboration within an international engineering team

Desirable:

• Experience with AMD/Xilinx FPGA platforms, particularly AMD Versal
• Experience with AMD Vivado and related FPGA implementation tools
• Familiarity with Synopsys VCS, Siemens Questa, or equivalent simulation tools
• Experience with digital signal processing (DSP), waveform generation, or high-speed data acquisition
• Experience developing deterministic, ultra-low-latency digital systems
• Familiarity with AXI, PCIe, DDR, or other high-performance hardware interfaces
• Experience with ASIC-oriented RTL development and reusable digital IP
• Knowledge of Python, Tcl, or other languages used for development automation
• Experience with hardware-software co-design and embedded systems
• Experience in quantum computing, telecommunications, measurement equipment, or other performance-critical digital systems

What’s in it for you?

• Strong community: Work alongside top professionals in a friendly, open-door environment
• Growth focus: Take on large-scale projects with a global impact and expand your expertise
• Tailored learning: Boost your skills with internal events (meetups, conferences, workshops), Udemy access, language courses, and company-paid certifications
• Endless opportunities: Explore diverse domains through internal mobility, finding the best fit to gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge technologies
• Flexibility: Enjoy radical flexibility – work remotely or from an office, your choice
• Care: We’ve got you covered with company-paid medical insurance, mental health support, and financial & legal consultations
