About the role
Its rugged computing products support critical military and aerospace programs across land, sea, and air, where reliability and performance are essential. Lead a technical area, review designs, and help establish sound engineering practices across multidisciplinary teams. Work on FPGA/DSP and RF converter animals near byplatforms that combine high-speed interfaces, embedded processing, and hardware/software integration.
What they are looking for
- Must Have Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
- 7+ years of FPGA design and development experience.
- Experience interfacing FPGAs with RF converters using LVDS, JESD204B/C, or RFSoC.
- Hands-on experience with AMD/Xilinx Vivado and high-speed FPGA design.
- Strong experience in VHDL and Verilog/SystemVerilog.
- Demonstrated ownership of the FPGA development lifecycle, including architecture, requirements definition, implementation, simulation, and hardware verification.
- Strong understanding of timing constraints and timing closure.
- Experience with high-speed interfaces such as DDR4/DDR5, PCIe, multi-gigabit Ethernet, or JESD204B/C.
- Experience implementing and tuning high-speed serial-interface IP.
- Experience supporting FPGA/DSP carrier boards, FMC/RF converter modules, single-board computers, or other complex embedded computing products.
- Experience with Vivado Simulator and ILAs; Hands-on experience in at least one or more of the following areas: Intel/ARM processor interfaces, DDR memory, MPSoC, or RFSoC.
- Ability to review schematics and work closely with hardware design engineers.
- Demonstrated technical leadership, independent problem-solving, and ownership of engineering deliverables.
- Experience with TCL, Python, C/C++, and Embedded Linux.
- Flexibility to work across hardware and software boundaries and contribute to multidisciplinary engineering challenges.
- Desired Strong knowledge of AXI buses.
- Experience with Aurora, iBERT, and parallel gigabit LVDS interfaces.
- TCL scripting to automate design, build, and test workflows.
- Familiarity with ModelSim or QuestaSim.
- Python scripting for design automation, validation, or debugging.
- Experience with hardware bring-up and laboratory debugging.
- Familiarity with schematic and PCB design tools.
- Experience with multiple FPGA vendors, including AMD, Altera, Lattice, or Microchip.
- Experience using AI tools to improve engineering productivity and work quality, with the judgment to evaluate AI-generated results critically.
