Full Job Description
Overview
BigBear.ai is seeking an experienced senior HW/SW Design Engineer to join a small team to design, develop, construct, and test electronic hardware (FPGA) and software processing components for subsystems supporting RF communication and collection systems. This position requires expertise in FPGA development, digital signal processing implementation, and software-hardware integration to support mission critical requirements. The engineer will lead technical design efforts, implement DSP algorithms and associated technical components in FPGA hardware, integrate with existing Linux code bases, bridge FPGA to software stack connection, plus document those efforts.
What you will do
This role combines hardware design responsibilities (FPGA RTL development, timing closure, resource optimization) with software development (integration code, system-level software) to deliver complete subsystem solutions. The engineer will work to implement DSP and associated technical components in FPGA for code base integration.
What you need to have
Bachelor's degree plus 8-years of relevant experience or equivalent.
An Active TS/SCI with Poly
Strong experience required for FPGA coding, Digital Signal Processing theory & application, Interfacing FPGA code with existing code bases and software
Knowledge of signal processing blocks and related DSP components, Linux OS, coding ability in C and C++
What we'd like you to have
Additional experience with Vivado required; experience with Epiq Solution PDK preferred
