Semidynamics is a Barcelona-based semiconductor company, founded in 2016, that designs European processor technology built on the open RISC-V standard. We develop fully customisable 64-bit RISC-V processor IP, including out-of-order and in-order CPU cores and dedicated vector and tensor units, for demanding AI, machine learning and high-performance computing workloads.

Our team combines deep architecture expertise with hands-on silicon experience, and we are growing to deliver complete, high-performance SoC solutions to our customers.

Role overview

We are looking for an SoC Top RTL Integration Engineer to integrate multiple subsystems into the top level of our high-performance SoCs. You will connect CPU clusters, IP blocks and peripherals through interconnects and NoCs, and make sure the integrated design is clean, constrained and ready for tape-out.

This is a senior, hands-on role for an engineer who has already integrated large SoCs and taken them to silicon.

Key responsibilities

- Integrate multiple subsystems (CPU clusters, memory, accelerators, peripherals and third-party IP) into the SoC top-level RTL .

- Connect subsystems through interconnects and NoCs using protocols such as AXI, APB and CHI .

- Define and integrate the chip's IOs , including connections to pads .

- Write and maintain SDC timing constraints for the integrated design, working with physical design teams.

- Run, debug and close lint, CDC and RDC checks at SoC top level.

- Integrate the top-level clock, reset and power infrastructure, and contribute to UPF power intent.





- Develop Python and C scripts and tests to automate integration flows and support bring-up.

- Work closely with architecture, verification, DFT and physical design teams to drive the SoC through to tape-out .

Required qualifications

- Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering or a related field.

- 8+ years of experience in digital/SoC design.

- Strong hands-on RTL design experience (SystemVerilog/Verilog).

- Proven experience integrating multiple subsystems on large SoCs.

- Experience connecting subsystems through interconnects and/or NoCs, with solid knowledge of AXI and APB.

- Proven track record on one or more tape-outs.

- Hands-on experience with lint, CDC and RDC checks.

- Experience writing and managing SDC constraints and integrating chip IOs.

- Working knowledge of Python and C for scripting and automation (user level).

- Fluent English, written and spoken.

Nice to have

- Knowledge of clock, reset and power architectures.

- Experience with the CHI coherent interconnect protocol.

- Experience with UPF-based low-power design flows and pad ring integration.

Why Semidynamics

- Work at one of Europe's most promising deep-tech semiconductor scale-ups

- Accelerated development path, with room to grow into confidential computing, memory isolation and software security

- 4 days per week in the Barcelona office (city center), 1 day working from home

- 1 week of work from anywhere in the world

- Competitive package

- A collaborative, technical, growth-oriented environment that values direct ownership and clear thinking
