The Senior Proposal Engineer leads the bidding process for complex projects, manages proposal preparation, evaluates bids, and coordinates handover after contract award.

Lead customer-facing technical efforts to drive adoption of the Virtuoso platform for custom analog and FinFET layouts. Build SKILL utilities, create test schematics/layouts, author PRSs, validate features with PV, deliver demos/RAKs, train sales/pre-sales, and collect structured customer feedback to guide R&D and product improvements.

Manage day-to-day operations of the learning design team, directly supervise four designers, lead recruitment and onboarding, oversee multiple concurrent course development projects, optimize processes using data and technology, manage vendor quality, and ensure on-time, on-budget, high-quality course launches.

Lead ASIC physical design activities from RTL to GDS including synthesis, floorplanning, place-and-route, CTS, timing optimization, extraction, physical verification, EMIR signoff, and IP integration. Drive automation with Python/Tcl/Bash, debug physical-design challenges, and collaborate closely with architecture, RTL, and verification teams to deliver multi-core in-memory compute SoCs.

As Head of Design at n8n, you will lead a design team, shape product strategy, enhance user experience, build research practices, and drive the strategic influence of design within the organization.

Develop and apply open-source multi-energy system models and agent-based approaches to study interactions between electricity, heat, and hydrogen markets. Contribute to model development, scenario design, data analysis, publications, and stakeholder engagement with academic, policy and industry partners.

Lead earthing design studies and measurements for substations (up to 400 kV) including EMF calculations, EMI studies and lightning protection. Manage multiple projects, produce proposals, liaise with substation design teams, mitigate risks, and mentor junior engineers. Travel across the UK and overseas for site visits.

Design and deliver cable system engineering across life cycle stages including concept, detailed design, installation support and maintenance. Produce specifications and contractual documents, review and approve designs, solve technical issues, manage budgets/timetables, ensure CDM/HSE compliance, lead technical teams and innovate deliverables.

Design and implement user-facing features by combining high-quality visual design and frontend engineering. Improve and expand the design system, build flexible components, collaborate with Product Engineers, ship to users quickly, iterate from feedback, and support customer-facing issues. Work spans wireframing, UI implementation, and end-to-end technical delivery.

Design and implement polished UI/UX at scale, improve and extend the design system, collaborate with product engineers, ship end-to-end features, iterate with user feedback, and consult on bespoke design work while balancing visual design and engineering responsibilities.
