TL;DR · Careers

As a Senior FPGA Design Engineer at Lam, you will join a dynamic team focused on advancing semiconductor plasma etchers by designing embedded controllers using FPGA solutions. Your daily tasks will involve collaborating with cross-functional teams to architect and implement hardware designs, including partitioning architecture across HW/SW/FPGA, and developing interfaces for various peripheral devices such as sensors and actuators. You will model signal processing algorithms in Matlab or Python and port them to RTL code executed on FPGAs. The role requires extensive experience with FPGA design methodologies using SystemVerilog or VHDL, proficiency in Xilinx Vivado, and knowledge of digital signal processing techniques like FFT, FIR, and IIR. Additionally, you should be skilled in scripting with Python, working with Git for source control, and have a strong background in embedded system architecture and industrial applications.

What you'll do

  • Implement FPGA solutions for embedded controllers in semiconductor plasma etchers.
  • Design interface and control systems for peripheral devices like sensors and actuators.
  • Model signal processing algorithms in Matlab/Simulink and port them to RTL on FPGA.
  • Partition architecture across hardware/software, firmware, and FPGA based on design needs.
  • Develop and document FPGA designs using SystemVerilog or VHDL, adhering to verification processes.

What we're looking for

  • 12+ years experience in embedded system architecture with FPGA design.
  • Proficient in SystemVerilog or VHDL for FPGA development.
  • Expertise in Xilinx Vivado block diagram tool and AXI busses.
  • In-depth knowledge of FPGA design cycle, verification using UVM.
  • Skilled in Matlab/Simulink modeling and Python scripting.
  • Experience with digital signal processing (FFT, FIR, IIR).
  • Knowledge of communications protocols (SPI, I2C, Ethernet) and analog circuitry.
