Job description

What you'll do

In this role you will help develop high speed signal processing algorithms, cryptography, and/or network protocols in FPGAs. The individual will be responsible for the full design phase starting from the requirements phase to documentation, block diagrams, implementation of source code, simulation, place & route, testing in hardware, and integration. The individual will collaborate with other engineers from different fields and must be capable of working in both a small team setting and a larger team setting. Experience in the development of high-performance FPGA designs, network encryptors and cryptographic devices is a plus.

The day-to-day
  • Design FPGA module and system level architectures with Verilog and/or VHDL
  • Develop simulations for modules and systems
  • Synthesizes Verilog and/or VHDL to FPGA products
  • Develop timing constraints, analyze timing results, and implement design changes required to close timing
  • Generate and collaborate on required design documents, development requirements, specifications and verification protocols
  • Work closely with hardware and hardware engineers, bringing up boards, interpreting data sheets and schematics
  • Conduct code and design reviews and participate in multi-functional reviews
  • Maintain and control FPGA code revision history
  • Responsible for owning and driving technical issues to resolution
  • Integrates and debugs design in the laboratory

What you'll need
  • Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or a related field
  • 5+ years FPGA design experience
  • Foundational knowledge of digital logic and timing considerations
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, ability to work with a geographically distributed team
  • Attention to detail, ability to follow process and coding guidelines, participate in code reviews and accept feedback
  • Experience with Programmable Logic EDA tools, such as AMD/Xilinx ISE/Vivado, Intel/Altera Quartus, Siemens/Mentor Graphics, Synopsys Synplify, SoftCore Micro embedments in MicroChip, etc.
  • Proven track record to design and implement FPGA modules using Verilog and/or VHDL with simulation and testbench development
  • Familiarity with designing and coding for re-use, maintainability and scalability
  • Desire to a member of a team, collaborating on large system designs
  • Work independently, take initiative, and take ownership of tasks and results
  • US citizenship required
  • Ability to travel up to 10%
  • Active United States Secret Security Clearance

    This is a 100% onsite role based in Carlsbad, CA.


What will help you on the job
  • MSEE degree preferred
  • Familiarity with TCL, Perl, Python or another scripting language
  • Experience with high-speed interfaces like SERDES, DDR2/3/4, LVDS
  • Proven experience in debugging, diagnosing, and solving embedded designs issues
  • System Verilog design verification techniques, UVM, or other sophisticated verification methodologies
  • Experience and familiarity with Linux-based development environments

Salary range

We consider many factors when it comes to compensation, including the scope of the position as well as your background and experience. Base pay may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. Additional cash or stock incentives may be provided as part of the compensation package, in addition to a range of medical, financial, and/or other benefits, dependent on the position offered.
