Silvus is hiring a Principal FPGA/RTL Design Engineer to join the FPGA Engineering team, reporting directly to the Director of FPGA Engineering. This senior role involves architecting digital designs for wireless communication projects, including fixed-point design of signal processing blocks, RTL coding and simulation, FPGA synthesis, and hardware verification. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience with Xilinx FPGAs and SoCs using Vivado IDE, as well as proficiency in scripting languages like Perl and Python. They must possess strong skills in digital signal processing and multiple clock-domain FPGA designs to support complex wireless systems R&D aimed at solving real-world communication challenges.

What you'll do

  • Design digital architectures for wireless communication projects.
  • Implement fixed-point signal processing blocks in collaboration with systems engineers.
  • Develop RTL code, simulations, and test benches for FPGA-based designs.
  • Achieve FPGA synthesis and timing closure for high-utilization designs.
  • Troubleshoot hardware issues using logic analyzers and verification tools.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum 6 to 10 years of experience in RTL design and FPGA implementation.
  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
  • Expertise in fixed point binary arithmetic and digital signal processing designs.
  • Proven ability to work with multiple clock-domain, high-utilization FPGA designs.
