FPGA Design Engineer

Design and implement FPGA firmware for various digital hardware applications. Develop and optimize RTL (Register Transfer Level) code using VHDL or Verilog. Perform synthesis, place-and-route, and timing closure tasks on FPGA devices.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with hardware engineers to design interfaces and integrate FPGA-based solutions with other components (e.g., processors, sensors, memory).
• Develop and implement signal processing algorithms and high-speed digital communications.
• Develop testbenches and perform simulation and debugging to ensure functionality and performance meet requirements.
• Validate designs through hardware emulation, testing, and debugging using tools like ModelSim or similar simulators.
• Develop embedded firmware for controlling FPGA logic and interacting with external systems.

Requirements

• Minimum 5-7 years of experience in embedded systems/FPGA-based solution development ideally in the military or defense fields.
• Knowledge of radar/EW principles, including electromagnetic theory, RF systems, radar waveforms, and signal processing techniques.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• Strong understanding of digital logic design, timing analysis, and FPGA architecture.
• Proficient in FPGA programming using Verilog, VHDL, or SystemVerilog.
• Experience with simulation tools (e.g., ModelSim, XSIM) and debugging techniques.
• Familiarity with embedded systems and interfacing FPGA with processors and peripheral devices.
• Experience with high-speed digital communication protocols (e.g., PCIe, Ethernet, Serial, etc.).
• Strong skills in mathematics, image, signal, or data processing.
