Role Description:
The Electrical Engineer will develop FPGA designs in VHDL for all major vendors and device families including: Xilinx, Microsemi (Actel), Intel (Altera) and Lattice designs are implemented using VHDL for the following applications: Radio Frequency (RF) and Electro-Optical (EO) DSP, controls, data links, and embedded processing. Designers work with circuit card designers and systems engineers to develop requirements, architect new parts, partition and perform code development, simulation, 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.
Job Responsibilities:
Independently drive projects and execute to program schedules on time and budget
Lead small teams and mentor junior engineers
Demonstrate self-motivation, with little supervision required
Design and deliver production quality FPGA releases from initial proof of concept up to production
Work cooperatively with systems, hardware, software engineers, and program management to ensure product success
Demonstrate the ability to architect FPGA-based systems to determine parts, interfaces, and Concept of Operations (CONOPS)
Translate system level requirements into FPGA requirements
Design and code in VHDL for reliability and maintainability
Verify designs utilizing self-checking techniques with directed and constrained random tests, while tracking functional and code coverage
Create complete documentation including requirements, verification plan, and user’s guides
Support internal and external technical reviews
Required Skills, Experience and Education:
Required: This position requires the eligibility to obtain a security clearance. Except in rare circumstances, only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance
Bachelor of Science in Electrical or Computer Engineering
A minimum of 4 to 8 years of experience with digital design and VHDL coding
Expertise in Xilinx or Microsemi devices and flow tools
Expertise in delivering FPGA solutions to system level applications
Hands on experience with integration and debug
Highly motivated, high performers with a strong desire to learn and contribute in a fast-paced team environment
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Ability to perform work without appreciable direction
Desired Qualifications:
MS or Ph.D. in Electrical or Computer Engineering
FPGA design expertise in one or more of the following areas:
Expertise in radar processing techniques
Expertise in image processing techniques for visual and infrared sensors
Expertise in embedded systems design using ARM, Microblaze, or Nios processors
Expertise in gigabit serial interfaces and multi-gigabit transceivers (MGTs)
Expertise in constrained random verification in UVM using System Verilog
Expertise in verification utilizing emulation platforms, such as Veloce
Knowledge of C programming and scripting languages such as Perl or Python
Experience modeling algorithms and applying fixed-point analysis and conversion of floating point algorithms
FPGA design experience using a Linux based development environment
Past experience in a leadership role such as team lead, technical lead, project lead, etc.
Past experience estimating design work, developing schedules, and tracking progress against budget and schedule for FPGA designs
