TL;DR · FPGA Engineer

The FPGA Engineer joins a cross-functional team responsible for product design from system architecture and requirements allocation through product release and production of cost-sensitive secure products. The engineer will perform FPGA design, keeping abreast of technology trends while managing issues, impacts, and corrective actions. Key responsibilities include working with VHDL, Verilog, SystemVerilog, and TCL languages. The role involves utilizing Vivado tools and Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC FPGAs. Candidates should possess skills in Petalinux, Yocto, or Buildroot, and Git for version control. Technical requirements include experience with Multi-Gigabit Transceivers, bus protocols like Ethernet, Interlaken, and SPI, and interfacing with DRAM or SRAM. The engineer must also perform static timing analysis, timing closure, and floor planning for designs featuring embedded hard and soft processors.

What you'll do

  • Design products from system architecture and requirements allocation through production.
  • Develop cost-sensitive secure products using VHDL, Verilog, or SystemVerilog.
  • Perform static timing analysis, timing closure, and floor planning for complex designs.
  • Interface designs with external memory such as DRAM and SRAM.
  • Implement high-speed bus protocols including Ethernet, Interlaken, and Aurora.
  • Manage version control and CI/CD flows for FPGA designs using Git.
  • Integrate embedded hard and soft processors with commercial and custom IP.

What we're looking for

  • U.S. citizenship is required.
  • Ability to obtain a Department of Defense TS/SCI security clearance is required.
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering, or a related field, plus 2 years of relevant experience.
  • Master's degree plus 6 months of relevant experience.
  • Proficiency in FPGA design principles and techniques.
  • Proficiency in written and verbal communications.
  • Experience with VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog and TCL or similar languages (preferred).
  • Experience with Zynq processors, Petalinux, Yocto, Buildroot, Git, MGTs, bus protocols, and memory interfaces (preferred).
