EDA Platform Engineer

At Itility, we design, build and operate EDA environments for customers where silicon design, performance and reliability are critical. These are environments where toolchains are complex, workloads heavy, licenses scarce, and downtime is not an option. We are looking for an EDA Platform Engineer who understands what it takes to run EDA environments in practice and who helps us further professionalize and scale these environments across our customers.

Your role As an EDA Platform Engineer, you are responsible for the technical foundation of multiple EDA environments . You work on Linux-based systems that support digital and analog design flows, verification, simulation and synthesis. You help define how EDA environments are built, configured and operated, and you apply that knowledge directly in customer teams.

You are involved both in platform development (how we standardise and automate EDA environments) and day-to-day operation at customers. This is a hands-on engineering role, close to the tools, the workloads and the engineers.

What You Will Do

• Build, configure and maintain Linux-based EDA environments
• Install, manage and support EDA toolchains (e.g. simulation, synthesis, verification, P&R)
• Manage and troubleshoot license servers and license usage
• Support compute-intensive workloads (batch, distributed, queue-based execution)
• Work with engineers to understand design flows and usage patterns
• Diagnose and resolve performance, stability and scalability issues
• Improve reproducibility of environments (tool versions, configs, dependencies)
• Automate setup, provisioning and operational tasks where possible

Help define standards and best practices for EDA environments across customers

This is what we offer

You will have the space to develop yourself in the best possible way. Through our own Itility Academy, you can follow various training programs to further develop both your technical and soft skills.

In addition to a salary appropriate to your experience, background and potential, you will receive extra benefits such as:

• Company car with fuel card or mobility allowance plus mileage reimbursement
• 26 days of annual leave
• €115 monthly expense allowance
• 50% contribution to health insurance for you and your partner
• 60% contribution to the pension scheme
• Bonus based on your personal development and shared successes
• Laptop and phone
• Itility Academy – training in both hard and soft skills
• Hybrid working
• Access to the on-site gym

This is what you bring

• Strong, hands-on experience with Linux (mandatory)

• Experience running or supporting EDA environments or similar compute-heavy engineering platforms

• Familiarity with:

• EDA toolchains and workflows

• License management concepts (floating licenses, peak usage, contention)

• HPC or high-throughput compute environments

• AWS and/or Azure setup

• Comfortable working close to hardware designers and understanding how tools are actually used

• Pragmatic, structured and operationally minded

• Able to work independently and as part of multidisciplinary teams

• Good communication skills in English (Dutch is a plus)

Screening is part of the recruitment process.
