As a Senior FPGA Design Engineer you will develop 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, and place 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 DoDesign and deliver production quality FPGA releases from initial proof of concept up to productionArchitect FPGA-based systems to determine parts, interfaces, and Concept of Operations (CONOPS)Translate system level requirements into FPGA requirementsDesign and code in VHDL for reliability and maintainabilityVerify designs utilizing self-checking techniques with directed and constrained random tests, while tracking functional and code coverageHelp drive projects and execute program schedules on time and budgetCreate complete documentation including requirements, verification plan, and user's guidesLead small teams and mentor junior engineersSupport internal and external technical reviewsQualifications You Must HaveTypically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experienceExperience with VHDL and/or Verilog codingExperience with SystemVerilog codingExperience with Xilinx or Microsemi devices and flow toolsQualifications We PreferExperience with integration and debug of FPGA/ASIC devicesRadar processing techniquesImage processing techniques for visual and infrared sensorsEmbedded systems design using ARM, Microblaze, or Nios processorsGigabit serial interfaces and multi-gigabit transceivers (MGTs)Constrained random verification in UVM using System VerilogVerification utilizing emulation platforms, such as VeloceWhat We OfferOur values drive our actions, behaviors, and performance with a vision for a safer, more connected world.
