ROLE: Digital Design Implementation Engineer
LOCATION: San Jose, CA (Onsite)
DURATION: 6 Months + extension
OVERVIEW & IMPACT
SoC R&D Lab in San Jose is seeking a talented, highly motivated individual to join our team as a Digital Design Implementation Engineer. You will work as part of a team taking digital designs for wireless communication systems and high-speed PHY from RTL to signoff-quality silicon.
JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
- Perform ASIC design implementation in one or more of: logic synthesis, static timing analysis (STA), and place and route (PnR).
- Develop and maintain implementation flows and scripts, and drive timing, power, and area (PPA) closure.
- Perform timing signoff, including constraint (SDC) development and checking, and resolve timing violations.
- Work with RTL design, DFT, and physical design teams to resolve implementation issues.
- Support silicon bring-up and commercialization.
REQUIRED SKILLS
- BS or BE minimum in Electrical/Computer Engineering or a related field, with 2+ years of ASIC design implementation experience in at least one of STA, synthesis, or PnR
- Hands-on experience with industry-standard EDA tools (for example Synopsys Design Compiler/Fusion Compiler/PrimeTime, or Cadence Genus/Innovus/Tempus)
- Solid understanding of digital design, timing concepts, and constraints
- Proficiency in scripting (Tcl, Python, Perl, or shell)
- Teamwork, dedication, strong communications, and interpersonal skills
- Excellent communication skills both written and verbal
PREFERRED SKILLS
- Experience implementing high-speed designs, such as SerDes/high-speed PHY or high-frequency digital blocks
- Experience with advanced process nodes, clock tree synthesis, and multi-corner/multi-mode (MCMM) timing closure
- Familiarity with low-power design methodology (UPF) and signoff checks (physical verification, IR/EM)

Entry Level Implementation Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level implementation engineer job?
Entry level implementation engineer roles favor candidates who can demonstrate hands-on technical experience, even from internships, capstone projects, or self-directed work. Employers at this level look for familiarity with software configuration, client-facing communication, and basic troubleshooting. A well-documented portfolio showing a completed implementation or integration project can set a junior candidate apart from others with a similar academic background.
Which companies hire entry level implementation engineers?
Companies hiring entry level implementation engineers right now include Apple, Tenstorrent, and Tego, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring at this level covers enterprise software vendors, SaaS companies, healthcare technology providers, and managed services firms that regularly onboard new grads and junior hires into structured implementation programs.
Are there remote entry level implementation engineer jobs?
Yes, though on-site and hybrid roles make up the majority at this experience level. About 55% of entry level implementation engineer openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, so candidates who can work on-site will see a broader range of opportunities while fully remote positions remain available across certain industries and employer types.
Are these new grad implementation engineer jobs?
Yes, these openings include new grad, recent graduate, and junior implementation engineer roles. A new grad friendly posting typically welcomes candidates with zero to two years of experience and treats internships, co-ops, or a strong project portfolio as equivalent to full-time work history. Look for listings that list degree requirements without mandatory years of experience as the clearest signal a role is open to new grads.
Which industries hire the most entry level implementation engineers?
Entry Level implementation engineer roles concentrate in Electronics & Hardware, Automotive, and Manufacturing, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive entry level hiring because they deploy complex software platforms at scale and need junior engineers to support onboarding, configuration, and early-stage client rollouts alongside more experienced implementation teams.
