ASIC & FPGA Design Engineer - Early Career

About the role

Develops, designs, verifies, and documents Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) development. Determines architecture design, logic design, and system simulation. Assignments include the analysis of all aspects from high-level design to synthesis, place and route, and timing and power utilization. Typically uses specialized equipment to establish operation data, conduct experimental tests, and evaluate results.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in computer engineering, electrical engineering or computer science.
• FPGA architecture and design, with applied knowledge of either the Xilinx/AMD, Intel or Microsemi FPGA devices and their associated application environments.
• Possess technical expertise to apply discretion and judgment to complete assignments of moderate scope and complexity, using current technology such as FPGAs, Microprocessors, DSPs, and Interface Controllers.
• Must be a US Citizen.
• This position will require a government security clearance.
• This position is located at a facility that requires special access.

Skills

• Working knowledge of digital signal processing functions, specific to radar and electronic warfare capabilities, including digital receivers and exciters.
• VHDL firmware programming capability, and having applied that knowledge on an FPGA device (Xilinx/AMD, Intel, Microsemi).
• Having utilized Xilinx Vivado, Intel Quartus, or Microsemi Libero development platforms to successfully build and test an executable hardware implementation of code which they have written.
• Use of the Mentor Questa HDL simulator, including UVM verification techniques.
• Experience with MATLAB modeling is a plus.
• Higher level code development, including Nvidia CUDA, OpenCL, Simulink HDL Coder, and Xilinx System Generator are also a plus.
• Digital board design of mixed signal boards to support FPGAs.
