– Davide Sarta, SVP Engineering

Breadth of Skills

We have structured our engineering team to support all functions required in the development of an application specific chip, including the concept and the validation phase.

System Architecture
Expertise

We can work with you on ‘how’ to develop your solution, but also help you in shaping it, in case the ‘what’ is not fully clear to you yet. We have a strong algorithms and system architecture team who could either provide the whole system solution for you, or help you refining yours, if needed.

Integrated Software Development Capability

The engineering team is not only chip development, it’s also a software development: we can design the required software to perform silicon validation, or provide software IPs as a primary deliverables.

Strength Across Analogue, Digital & Mixed-Signal Design

We are strong in digital design, in analogue design and in anything that required a mix of the two. The organization is structured in a way to maximise the interactions among those functions, to make sure analogue team listens to digital team and viceversa. With strong capabilities in all three domains, there is virtually no limit to the kind of application we can support.

Thoroughness

You’ll find in EnSilica a lot of ‘knowledge depth.

On every function, from system architecture to silicon validation, through analogue or digital design, verification or implementation, you will always find a lot of attention to quality. We are aware that silicon is an expensive business and unexpected re-spins can produce significant damage to the product life or even the company finances.

Proven Methodology & Top Talent

We believe the main pillars of the company are the talent and knowledge of our people, and the quality of our design methodology

Our selection process is not an easy one, even for graduates or interns: we spend significant time analysing CVs and performing several levels of interviews, before an offer is made. The objective is to keep our engineering pool at the top talent level.
We continuously invest a lot of effort in making our design flow robust and efficient. This is key in ensuring that schedules and quality are always under control

Flexibility & Problem-Solving

Requirements evolve — and we’re built to adapt.

With many senior team members coming from product companies, we understand the realities of changing specifications.

Our ability to adapt to a ‘changing scenario’ is one of our strengths: in the end our objective is to make sure the product is successful. Because we care, because we are engineers, and this is what engineers do, solve problems, transform dreams into reality.

Experience

25 Years of experience.

With hundreds of tape-outs across nearly all major process nodes, we bring decades of accumulated know-how. Our long-standing, low-turnover team provides stable, reliable expertise on every project.

A Culture That Cares

Professional, friendly, committed

You’ll feel it from the first interaction. We care about our customers, our engineering, and the end product. That mindset drives the extra mile and sets EnSilica apart.
