As a Senior FPGA Design Engineer you willdevelop FPGA designs for all major vendors and device families including: Xilinx, Altera,and Microsemi. Designs are implemented using VHDL for the following applications: gigabit serial interfaces, Radio Frequency (RF) and Electro-Optical (EO) DSP, controls, data links, embedded processing and processor interfaces.
Designers work with circuit card designers and systems engineers to develop requirements, architect new parts, collaborative modeling of algorithms, partition and perform code development, simulation, andplace and route.Designs are verified against requirements using both directed test and constrained random methodologies. Design support is expected from requirements definition through integration and test. Design documentation and configuration management are required.
What You Will Do
Design and deliver production quality FPGA releases from initial proof of concept up to production
Architect FPGA-based systems to determine parts, interfaces, and Concept of Operations (CONOPS)
Translate system level requirements into FPGA requirements
Design and code in VHDL for reliability and maintainability
Verify designs utilizing self-checking techniques with directed and constrained random tests, while tracking functional and code coverage
Help drive projects and execute program schedules on time and budget
Create complete documentation including requirements, verification plan, and user27s guides
Lead small teams and mentor junior engineers
Support internal and external technical reviews
Qualifications You Must Have
Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experience
Experience to include one of the following:
FPGA/ASIC design (VHDL and/or Verilog coding) or FPGA/ASIC verification (SystemVerilog coding)
Xilinx or Microsemi devices and flow tools
Delivering FPGA/ASIC solutions to system level applications
Experience with integration and debug of FPGA/ASIC devices
Qualifications We Prefer
FPGA/ASIC design experience in one or more of the following areas:
Radar processing techniques
Image processing techniques for visual and infrared sensors
Embedded systems design using ARM, Microblaze, or Nios processors
Gigabit serial interfaces and multi-gigabit transceivers (MGTs)
Constrained random verification in UVM using System Verilog
Verification utilizing emulation platforms, such as Veloce
