Senior Verification Engineer

Cambridge


I am seeking a Senior Verification Engineer to join a rapidly growing HW Team in Cambridge. You will get the opportunity to work on cutting edge technology and in the area of quantum computing. No prior experience in quantum computing? No problem. You'll learn as you go while working alongside world-class engineers in a truly cross-disciplinary environment.


About the Role

As aSenior Verification Engineer, you’ll take full ownership offunctional verificationacross their hardware systems. You’ll collaborate with a talented team of hardware designers and embedded software engineers to deliver trusted, high-performance solutions—verified from the ground up. With full visibility of the stack, you’ll define verification strategies, implement robust test environments, and ensure confidence in every design you deliver.


What You’ll Do

  • Work closely with hardware designers and system architects to define and ownverification plansbased on design specifications
  • Developscalable SystemVerilog testbenches, including checkers, coverage groups, and reference models
  • Design and runself-checking, directed, and randomized tests
  • Maintain the verification environment, including trackingregressions, bugs, and coverage metrics
  • Drive quality and performance across block-level and system-level designs


Core skills

  • Strong commercial experience infunctional verification, with ownership of verification strategy and planning
  • Expertise intestbench designusing frameworks like UVM or OVM
  • Proficiency withSystemVerilog assertions (SVA)
  • Familiarity with multiple programming languages (e.g.,C, C++, Python)


Visa sponsorship will be provided for candidates who require. Please note, you must already be living and working in the United Kingdom.


You must also be prepared to work onsite 3 days per week in Cambridge.

Top 10 Skills in Quantum Computing According to LinkedIn & Indeed Job Postings

Quantum computing is transitioning from academic curiosity to a strategic technology with transformative potential in areas like cryptography, materials science, finance, logistics, and optimisation. UK institutions—from tech startups to government research labs—are investing in quantum capabilities and seeking professionals with interdisciplinary expertise to build this emerging field. But which quantum skills are most in demand today? By analysing LinkedIn and Indeed job listings, this article presents the Top 10 quantum computing skills that UK employers are targeting in 2025. Alongside each, you’ll find guidance on how to demonstrate your proficiency on your CV, in interviews, and through project-based proof of work.

The Future of Quantum Computing Jobs: Careers That Don’t Exist Yet

Quantum computing has long been described as the next frontier in technology. Unlike classical computers, which process information in binary (0s and 1s), quantum computers use quantum bits—or qubits—that can exist in multiple states simultaneously. This allows them to perform certain calculations exponentially faster than today’s most powerful supercomputers. For now, quantum computing is still in its early stages. But progress is accelerating. Tech giants such as IBM, Google, and Microsoft are racing to build scalable quantum systems. Start-ups across the UK, including Oxford Quantum Circuits and Cambridge Quantum, are developing applications that could transform industries from finance to pharmaceuticals. The UK government has invested heavily in quantum technologies, with the National Quantum Strategy allocating billions to research and commercialisation. Universities are training a new generation of quantum scientists and engineers. Demand for quantum skills is already outpacing supply. Yet the real transformation is still to come. As quantum computing converges with AI, cyber security, biotechnology, and materials science, entirely new jobs will emerge—roles that don’t exist today but will be essential tomorrow. Many of the most important quantum computing jobs of the next two decades don’t exist yet. This article explores why new careers will appear, the future jobs likely to emerge, how today’s roles will evolve, why the UK is well positioned, and how professionals can prepare now.

Seasonal Hiring Peaks for Quantum Computing Jobs: The Best Months to Apply & Why

The UK's quantum computing sector has emerged as one of Europe's most intellectually challenging and strategically crucial technology markets, with roles spanning from junior quantum software engineers to principal quantum scientists and heads of quantum research. With quantum computing positions commanding salaries from £40,000 for graduate quantum engineers to £180,000+ for senior principal scientists, understanding when organisations actively recruit can dramatically accelerate your career progression in this revolutionary and rapidly evolving field. Unlike traditional computing roles, quantum computing hiring follows distinct patterns influenced by quantum research cycles, government funding schedules, and quantum hardware development timelines. The sector's unique combination of advanced mathematics, quantum physics, and computational complexity creates predictable hiring windows that strategic professionals can leverage to advance their careers in building tomorrow's quantum systems. This comprehensive guide explores the optimal timing for quantum computing job applications in the UK, examining how national quantum strategies, academic research cycles, and quantum technology initiatives influence recruitment patterns, and why strategic timing can determine whether you join a groundbreaking quantum research team or miss the opportunity to develop the next generation of quantum algorithms and systems.
