Senior Python SW Engineer
About this role
Welcome to Codasip
At Codasip, we’re redefining the future of computing. Following a bold strategic pivot toward cyber-resilient semiconductor architectures, we are building next-generation processors and systems where security is embedded at the very core by design, not as an afterthought. As we expand our portfolio of secure, CHERI-enabled technologies and focus on delivering architecture-first security solutions, there has never been a more exciting time to join. Be part of a global team shaping the next era of secure computing where innovation, ownership, and impact go hand in hand.
Hiring Manager: Edward Butler
Job Title: Python SW Engineer
Reporting Line: Václav Hála
Location: Brno-based
Type: Full-time
The Impact You'll Make
We are extending our Base team that sits within the center of Codasip’s EDA tooling division that develops the Studio Fusion and System Studio products — the tooling that enables chip designers to bring Codasip's secure, CHERI-enabled processors to life in real silicon products.
We are looking for a high-caliber senior software engineer who is looking for their next technical challenge. This is an opportunity to play a key role in an ambitious product roadmap that extends our EDA tooling to support full SoC design workflows.
What You Bring to The Table
Technical Delivery
- Design, build, and maintain high-quality features across the Studio Fusion and System Studio codebase, with a focus on the Marketplace and Command Line / API surface
- Own end-to-end delivery of technical work items — from scoping and design through to testing and release
- Ensure robust continuous integration and testing pipelines using GitLab and TeamCity
- Uphold and evolve code quality standards across a Python / C++ / Bash codebase running on Linux (RHEL 8/9) and Windows
Engineering Contribution
- Actively contribute to architectural discussions and help shape technical decisions for the team's work areas
- Participate in backlog refinement, providing accurate estimates and helping prioritise technical debt alongside feature work
- Support the company's strategic pivot to chip design by extending the Studio codebase to handle multi-IP / SoC workflows
- Contribute to an Early Access release for System Studio and engage with internal SoC teams as the primary customers of next-generation tooling
Collaboration & Craft
- Work closely with other developers — sharing knowledge, reviewing code thoughtfully, and helping raise the technical bar without formal management responsibility
- Participate actively in Agile ceremonies (stand-ups, sprint planning, refinement, retrospectives) and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement
- Bring a pragmatic, solutions-first mindset and communicate technical complexity clearly to both engineers and stakeholders
Must-haves
- Strong Python development skills (Python 3.x); comfortable with C++ and Bash in a systems context
- Solid understanding of software architecture, system engineering, and CI/CD practices
- Experience working with Linux-based development environments
- Clear communicator who can collaborate effectively across a distributed team
- Brno-based or willing to relocate; hybrid working with in-office presence required
Nice-to-haves
- Experience with TeamCity for CI/CD pipelines
- Hands-on exposure to public cloud platforms, particularly AWS
- Any background in the semiconductor or EDA industry
- Familiarity with Docker-based development and containerised workflows
Tools & Technologies
- Python 3.x · C++ · Bash
- GitLab · TeamCity · Docker
- Linux (RHEL 8/9) · Windows
- Jira / Confluence

Company at a glance
Codasip is a processor solutions company which helps developers to differentiate their products. We are Europe’s leading RISC-V company with a global presence. Billions of chips already use our technology.
In today’s technology market, differentiation is everything. The difference between success and failure. And, in chip design, this difference is quite literally wafer thin. With increasing transistor costs, your developers can no longer rely on semiconductor scaling and legacy processors to achieve your goals. The only way forward is to implement custom compute with designs tailored to your applications.
We deliver custom compute through the combination of the open RISC-V ISA, Codasip Studio processor design automation and high-quality processor IP. Our innovative approach lets you easily customize and differentiate your designs. You can develop high-performing, and game-changing products that are truly transformational.
