TL;DR · Specialist FPGA Design Engineer 1

The Specialist FPGA Design Engineer 1 joins a team in Salt Lake City to design, develop, and test communication systems, advanced electronic warfare systems, and multi-function systems. This role involves the full design lifecycle, including requirement definition, coding, simulation, synthesis, place and route, verification testing, and system support. The engineer will perform HDL coding, simulation, and lab verification using tools such as ModelSim, Synplicity, Xilinx Vivado, ISE, and Altera Quartus. Required skills include VHDL or Verilog, timing closure, and Digital Signal Processing designs. Candidates should possess experience with signal generators, digital oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and BERTS. Preferred competencies include implementing complex DSP algorithms, high-speed serial interfaces, Git revision control, and proficiency in C/C++/C# and Matlab/Simulink.

What you'll do

  • Perform HDL coding using VHDL or Verilog for FPGA hardware development.
  • Execute FPGA design tasks including simulation, synthesis, and place and route.
  • Implement complex Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms in FPGA devices.
  • Achieve timing closure for FPGA designs.
  • Conduct laboratory debugging using signal generators, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
  • Integrate industry standard interfaces such as Ethernet, SPI, UART, and PCIe.
  • Develop high-speed serial interfaces exceeding 3 Gbps.
  • Manage version control for design files using Git.

What we're looking for

  • Must have a Bachelor’s Degree with 4+ years of relevant experience, a Graduate Degree with 2+ years of experience, or 8+ years of experience without a degree.
  • Must have 4+ years of FPGA design experience with Digital Signal Processing designs.
  • Must have experience in simulation, synthesis, and placement software tools such as ModelSim, Synplicity, Xilinx Vivado/ISE, and/or Altera Quartus.
  • Must have experience in laboratory debug techniques using signal generators, digital oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, BERTS, and other complex measurement devices.
  • Must have experience with timing closure in FPGAs.
  • Must have experience in either VHDL (preferred) or Verilog hardware development languages.
  • Must be a U.S. citizen to obtain a required security clearance.
  • Preferred experience includes implementing complex DSP algorithms, industry standard interfaces, high-speed serial interfaces, Git, C/C++/C#, and Matlab/Simulink.
