OUR STORY
At STMicroelectronics, we believe in the power of technology to drive innovation and make a positive impact on people, businesses, and society. As a global semiconductor company, our advanced technologies and chips form the hidden foundation of the world we live in today.
When you join ST, you will be part of a global business with more than 115 nationalities, present in 40 countries, and comprising over 50,000 diverse and dedicated creators and makers of technology around the world. Developing technologies takes more than talent: it takes amazing people who understand collaboration and respect. People with passion and the desire to disrupt the status quo, drive innovation, and unlock their own potential.
Embark on a journey with us, where you can innovate for a future that we want to make smarter and greener, in a responsible and sustainable way. Our technology starts with you.
YOUR ROLE
Imaging is a fascinating discipline in which to work, with rapidly evolving applications and technologies. In ST's Imaging Division we are passionate about driving innovation across these boundaries.
As well as exposure to the full silicon chip development processes, that you would expect within most microelectronics opportunities, you will also gain exposure to other areas of technology development. For example, we work closely with the ST fab and pixel design, optics, module construction, and algorithm teams, required to design a full state of the art imaging system. We believe that it is at the intersection of these disciplines where real disruptive innovation can occur. The ST Edinburgh site benefits from experience across all these disciplines, allowing you to learn, debate and grow with some of the key experts in the world of Imaging.
ST Edinburgh has a strong culture of putting people first. We make big efforts to share knowledge across the organisation with the goal of enabling and inspiring people. We operate with the belief that true disruptive innovation is a bottom-up process with a top-down steer of direction from customers and company leaders.
The Imaging Division site is also located close to Edinburgh's beautiful and historic city centre and beside the Royal Botanic Gardens, providing a great location for commuting, sport and socialising. With a young, dynamic, multicultural workforce and a company ethos that promotes strong working bonds through sponsored social activities, ST Edinburgh is a world class location to work at.
The Digital Design Team
The focus of the Design Team centres on RTL and FW development for Time-of-Flight range finding devices, utilising Single Photon Avalanche Diodes (SPADs), enabling extremely low power operation for battery power devices and high-resolution readouts, which are a key enabler for LiDAR and AR applications.
The Role
We are offering a 1-year internship under school/University agreement for a student (from Bachelor level to Master). The position of Digital Design Engineer Intern requires a motivated individual with strong communication and team-working skills. The candidate should be passionate about SoC design. Knowledge of, or interest in, the field of photonics would be an advantage.
The successful candidate will play an important role in the development of new and existing products. This will involve a broad range of tasks covering the entire spectrum of the digital design flow; from specification to implementation, designing and integrating custom IPs within a wider system architecture including analogue components, embedded microcontroller management, testbench simulation, FPGA and SOC verification.
Specific responsibilities will include HDL and embedded firmware design (C and assembler) and verification at IP and SOC levels, FPGA and SoC synthesis and final evaluation of the design on silicon. The multi-disciplinary nature of the role provides for a broad working experience and ample opportunity for career progression or specialising in a particular technology area.
We are looking for bright and motivated candidates with a growth mindset to join the team. We need people with the spirit and drive to deeply understand the ToF systems we develop, make improvements to the design and flow and to strive to innovate in this exciting and fast-moving market.
We are looking for candidates with a good foundation in digital design who wish to take on responsibility in the form of IP ownership or full digital SoC delivery into a product. Strong support of team members would also be desirable.
Essential Skills
YOUR SKILLS & EXPERIENCES
- Electronic Engineering or closely related degree
- Solid understanding of digital theory, including static timing analysis (STA) and high-speed/low-power design techniques, CDC and RDC
- Proficiency in Verilog / SystemVerilog HDL
- Cadence HDL simulation (IUS)
- Good knowledge of scripting languages (PERL, Python…)
- Good knowledge of revision control management (SVN, Git…)
- Practical experience in using and creating SystemVerilog test benches
Desirable Skills / Experience
- Knowledge of digital physical implementation flows
- Lead experience (design component, customer/supplier interface experience, etc)
- Strong communication skills for interfacing roles with other disciplines (Digital Verification, Analogue Design, Validation, Product Test, etc)
ST is proud to be one of the 17 companies certified as a 2025 Global Top Employer and the first and only semiconductor company to achieve this distinction. ST was recognized in this ranking thanks to its continuous improvement approach and stands out particularly in the areas of ethics & integrity, purpose & values, organization & change, business strategy, and performance.
At ST, we endeavor to foster a diverse and inclusive workplace, and we do not tolerate discrimination. We aim to recruit and retain a diverse workforce that reflects the societies around us. We strive for equity in career development, career opportunities, and equal remuneration. We encourage candidates who may not meet every single requirement to apply, as we appreciate diverse perspectives and provide opportunities for growth and learning. Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is woven into our company culture.
