Senior ASIC Design/DV and AI Engineer
Location: Ireland - Limerick, Cork, Dublin
Spain - Valencia
The semiconductor industry is rapidly adopting agentic AI – autonomous multi-agent systems that reason, learn, plan, and execute complex EDA tasks. By automating repetitive, multi-step design tasks and optimizing intricate workflows, agentic AI is a “gamechanger” that enables engineers to focus on higher-level problems. In this context, ADI is seeking a Senior ASIC Design/DV and AI Engineer to spearhead the development and integration of best-in-class AI-driven tools in Integrated Circuit (IC) design and verification.
This position is in the Engineering Enablement (EE) group that provides industry-leading tools, methodologies, and support to accelerate product development across the company. You’ll be a part of the Systems Verification, Implementation and Validation (SVIV) team within the EE organization in ADI’s Vertical Business Units. SVIV is responsible for developing, adopting, and supporting tools, methodologies, and solutions across the entire design verification landscape - including Unified Metric-Driven Verification (MDV), SystemVerilog (SV)/UVM-based methodologies, Mixed-Signal DV, Post-Silicon Validation Shift-Left, Formal Verification, Functional Safety, Security, Portable Stimulus, and Emulation/Prototyping technologies.
A major focus of the group recently has been around deploying and integrating advanced Agentic AI methods to boost productivity in areas of digital architecture, digital design, digital implementation DV and embedded software. This role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to rapid advancements in a dynamic and fast-evolving field filled with engaging challenges.
About the Role
We are seeking a talented, dynamic and experienced ASIC design and verification engineer with AI skills to join our team based in Limerick, Cork, Dublin or Valencia. In this role, you will leverage your knowledge in IC design and verification with working knowledge of AI/ML to develop, integrate, deploy, and support best-in-class Agentic AI solutions including custom instructions, skills and automation scripts. You will help connect these tools with multiple engineering domains including system architecture, design, verification, and software teams to enhance productivity and quality.
