At lowRISC we believe that open source development can transform the semiconductor industry. To help achieve this vision of production-ready, commercial-grade chips and silicon building blocks, we employ a software team with a wide range of skills.
Our software engineers work across the full software stack, from firmware and toolchains that interact directly with hardware to cloud-based infrastructure that tests our products at scale. This includes work in areas such as:
lowRISC is a non‑profit Community Interest Company. With a business model that includes member fees and engineering services, we have shown that it is possible to run world‑leading projects collaboratively for everyone’s benefit. Originally a spinout from Cambridge University’s Computer Lab, our UK team is based in Cambridge and our Switzerland team is based in Zurich.
Our Ibex CPU and OpenTitan Root of Trust projects have been taken to production silicon, partnering with world‑leading organisations including Google and Rivos, combining open‑source approaches with best‑practice chip design methodologies.
Benefits include a generous employer pension contribution (up to 12.5% subject to an employee contribution via salary sacrifice of 6%), holiday allowance (33 days, pro rata, including public holidays), private medical insurance, group income protection, life insurance and a 4 week paid sabbatical after 4 years of service.
The team is based in Cambridge, UK, amongst the Silicon Fen’s ecosystem of high tech start ups. Our office is in the heart of the city and a short walk from the train station.
We do not discriminate against any employee or candidate because of race, colour, sex, age, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or any other protected characteristic.
