FPGA Design Engineer

Compensation $140,000 – $190,000 + PAID Relocation

We are seeking a skilled and motivated FPGA Design Engineer to join our client’s dynamic team. The successful candidate will be responsible for designing, developing, and testing FPGA-based solutions for various applications, ensuring optimal performance, reliability, and functionality. This role will involve working closely with cross-functional teams, including hardware, software, and systems engineers, to create cutting-edge solutions in a fast-paced environment.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and implement FPGA-based hardware solutions for aerospace applications

• Write efficient RTL (Register Transfer Level) code in VHDL/Verilog for FPGA development.

• Perform FPGA synthesis, simulation, and timing analysis to ensure the designs meet performance and timing requirements.

• Collaborate with hardware and software teams to integrate FPGA designs with other system components.

• Work on board-level debugging, troubleshooting, and validation of FPGA designs in real-world applications.

• Develop and run test benches to verify the functionality of the FPGA design.

• Optimize FPGA designs for power, area, and speed.

• Create and maintain design documentation, including specifications, test plans, and design reports.

• Provide support for design bring-up, debugging, and performance analysis.

• Continuously evaluate and incorporate new FPGA technologies and tools into design practices.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.

• 5 years of experience in FPGA design, with a strong focus on RTL design and implementation.

• Proficiency in VHDL/Verilog for FPGA design.

• Experience with FPGA design tools (e.g., Xilinx Vivado, Intel Quartus, etc.) and simulation tools.

• Strong knowledge of digital logic, timing analysis, and FPGA architectures.

• Familiarity with hardware description languages (HDLs) and hardware debugging techniques.

• Experience with OVM / UVM design verification methodology.

• Proficiency in scripting languages such as bash/csh, Perl, TCL, Python, or similar.

• Experience with FPGA development boards and peripherals.

• Understanding of FPGA performance optimization techniques (timing closure, resource optimization, etc.).

• Experience with high-speed digital design and signal processing.

• Familiarity with embedded systems and software integration.

• Active Security Clearance required

• Experience with high-level synthesis (HLS) tools.

• Familiarity with version control systems like Git.
