What is an Entry Level ASIC Design Engineer job?

An Entry Level ASIC Design Engineer is responsible for assisting in the design, development, and testing of Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). They work with senior engineers to define specifications, write hardware descriptions using languages like Verilog or VHDL, and perform simulations to validate designs. They may also collaborate with verification teams, support synthesis and timing analysis, and help troubleshoot design issues. This role requires a strong foundation in digital logic design, semiconductor fundamentals, and hardware design methodologies.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Entry Level Asic Design Engineer position, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Entry Level ASIC Design Engineer, you need a solid understanding of digital logic design, hardware description languages (such as Verilog or VHDL), and a degree in electrical or computer engineering. Familiarity with industry-standard EDA tools like Synopsys or Cadence and experience with simulation and verification environments are commonly expected. Strong problem-solving skills, effective communication, and the ability to work collaboratively make candidates stand out. These competencies enable precise design, successful project collaboration, and adaptation to the fast-paced, detail-oriented nature of ASIC development.

What are the typical daily responsibilities for an Entry Level ASIC Design Engineer?

As an Entry Level ASIC Design Engineer, your daily tasks often include writing and debugging code in hardware description languages, running simulations to verify functionality, and collaborating with senior engineers to implement and optimize chip designs. You may also assist with testbench development, participate in design reviews, and document your progress for project tracking. Expect to work closely with a multidisciplinary team—including verification, layout, and software engineers—to ensure the final product meets performance and reliability standards. This collaborative, fast-paced environment provides valuable hands-on experience and growth opportunities for engineers early in their careers.

Job description

The expected hiring range for this position is:

$70,800.00-$93,200.00.

Please note that the pay range information is a general guideline only. The pay offered to a selected candidate will be determined based on factors such the scope and responsibilities of the position, qualifications of the selected candidate, business considerations, internal equity, and external market pay for comparable jobs.

About the Role:

We are looking for a Junior ASIC Design Engineer to lead and contribute to research activities and engineering work focused on developing custom instrumentation for extreme radiation and/or cryogenic environments.

What your day-to-day as a Junior ASIC Design Engineer at Fermilab will look like:

  • Performing a leading role in Analog and RF ASIC design projects, while being able to contribute individually to major design tasks.

  • Developing design specifications for ASICs based on theoretical analyses and in conjunction with application needs.

  • Designing circuit networks using schematic entry and layout tools with full custom or timing-driven layout tools in Cadence CAD/EDA or a similar environment.

  • Models circuit networks and system components in hardware-description languages (Verilog-A and Verilog/SystemVerilog).

  • Building test benches and carries out analog and/or RF circuit simulations.

  • Executing physical and functional circuit and system verification.

  • Preparing documentation and participates in test-board designs and laboratory testing.

  • Delivering presentations internally, at national and international workshops, and at the topical conferences.

  • Performing other duties as assigned by supervisor.

  • Abiding by and being responsible for performing all duties in accordance with all environmental, health and safety regulations and practices pertinent to this position.
