TL;DR · FPGA Prototyping Design Engineer

As an FPGA Prototyping Design Engineer at our wireless SOC organization, you will join a world-class vertically integrated engineering team responsible for developing highly energy-efficient Wireless SoCs. Your role involves integrating custom hardware accelerators and multiple ARM-based subsystems into complex SoCs while collaborating with architects and IP developers to meet power, performance, and area goals. You will develop methodologies and verification processes, ensuring accurate implementation of security assumptions within the design blocks. Daily tasks include maintaining a common FPGA design platform, performing partitioning and synthesis, debugging, and validating designs using Verilog/SystemVerilog on Xilinx FPGAs. The ideal candidate has extensive experience in FPGA development for wireless applications and familiarity with Linux environments, Python scripting, and version control systems like Git or Perforce.

What you'll do

  • Maintain common design platform for FPGA, considering memories and complex clocks.
  • Design and verify FPGA components using Verilog/SystemVerilog.
  • Perform FPGA partitioning, synthesis, place-and-route, and timing optimizations.
  • Bring up, debug, and validate designs to meet functional and performance goals.
  • Create and execute plans for bringing up and validating new technologies.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree and 10+ years of relevant FPGA design experience.
  • Expertise in Verilog/SystemVerilog for design and verification.
  • Proven track record of bring-up, debugging, and verification on Xilinx FPGAs.
  • Strong understanding of clock domain crossing (CDC) and FPGA timing constraints.
  • Experience working in a Linux environment.
  • Familiarity with wireless standards like IEEE 802.11 and Bluetooth preferred.
