I am excited to be working on a new opportunity for a Senior Analog IC Layout Engineer to join a team based in Southampton that specialises in designing and manufacturing world-class infrared imaging products.

These innovative products are utilised in applications such as remote sensing, thermal imaging, and border surveillance, making this role critical to advancing technology in these fields.

Working within the Analog/Mixed Signal IC design team, the Senior Analog IC Layout Engineer will be working at transistor level where you will translate schematic designs into Layout solutions to achieve the specification and project schedule. You will have a clear understanding of Layout best practices and will have the ability to complete bespoke Analog/Mixed Signal and Digital Layout designs in CMOS technology.

Experience is required in some or all of the following: 

  • DRC and LVS
  • Top Level Verification
  • Experience working on 40nm and below
  • Cadence IC design suite of tools.
  • Analog/Mixed Signal and/or Digital IC design skills/knowledge
  • Parasitic extraction and evaluation
  • Layout of block level designs from scratch, working on schematic capture and simulation of the designs
  • Image Sensor/Pixel Design experience (ideal)

Industry degree qualified, the successful Senior Analog IC Layout Engineer will have 5 years minimum experience in a similar position. Experience leading more junior members of the team would be of interest.

A generous array of benefits are on offer including flexible working, a generous holiday allowance and an extremely strong pension plan.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Space Sector Job Applications (UK Guide)

The space industry is one of the most exciting and multidisciplinary sectors in technology and engineering today. Whether you’re applying for roles in spacecraft design, aerospace systems, robotics, satellite communications, mission operations, payload engineering, space software, ground systems, or scientific research, your application must quickly show hiring managers that you are relevant, technically credible and ready to deliver. In the UK space jobs market — spanning organisations from startups to defence primes, agencies, research labs and commercial constellations — hiring managers do not read every word of your CV. They scan applications rapidly, often making a judgement about whether to read further within the first 10–20 seconds. This guide breaks down exactly what hiring managers look for first in space sector applications, how they assess CVs and portfolios, why specific signals matter, and how you can position your experience to stand out on www.ukspacejobs.co.uk .

The Skills Gap in UK Space Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

The UK space sector is one of the most exciting and fastest-growing high-tech industries in the world. From Earth observation and satellite communications to space robotics, launch systems and deep-space exploration, the breadth of opportunity is enormous. The UK Government’s ambition to capture a significant share of the global space economy has driven investment, policy support and a wave of innovative companies — both established and start-up. Yet despite strong academic programmes and a pipeline of graduates with relevant degrees, employers in the UK space sector consistently report a persistent problem: Many graduates are not prepared for real-world space industry jobs. This is not a matter of intelligence or motivation. Rather, it reflects a growing skills gap between what universities are teaching and what employers actually need from space professionals. In this article, we’ll explore why that gap exists, what universities are doing well, where they fall short, what employers want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build thriving careers in the UK space sector.

UK Space Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

The UK space sector is no longer a niche reserved for astronauts and rocket scientists. It is a broad, fast-growing industry covering satellites, Earth observation, navigation, telecoms, space data, launch services, space sustainability and defence-related capability. That breadth creates genuine career opportunities for professionals switching careers in their 30s, 40s or 50s — especially in roles where delivery, quality, operations, safety, regulation and customer outcomes matter as much as pure engineering. This article gives you a UK reality check: what space jobs actually look like, which roles are realistic for career switchers, what skills UK employers value, how long retraining tends to take and whether age is a barrier (usually far less than people fear).
