FPGA Engineer

About the role

Help shape the future of radar sensing by turning advanced radar concepts into production-ready systems.

MatrixSpace develops AI-enabled radar and sensing systems that help people understand what's happening in the world around them. By combining advanced radar, edge computing, and AI, we deliver situational awareness in environments where traditional sensing solutions struggle.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop FPGA architectures and high-throughput data paths for radar sensing systems.
• Develop and integrate vendor and custom IP, including SPI, AXI, DMA, FIFOs, memory interfaces, and streaming pipelines.
• Translate radar and signal processing algorithms into efficient FPGA implementations.
• Debug and optimize FPGA designs for timing, resource utilization, throughput, latency, and hardware/software integration.
• Partner with RF, embedded, software, and systems engineers to define FPGA interfaces, architectures, and performance targets.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship on FPGA design and implementation.

Requirements

• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• 5–7 years developing FPGA-based systems for radar, RF, communications, electronic warfare, or other high-speed signal processing applications.
• Experience with modern AMD/Xilinx or Intel FPGA platforms, including vendor IP integration, DMA, processor interfaces, and timing closure.
• Strong RTL development skills using System Verilog, Verilog, VHDL, HLS, or similar, from architecture through lab validation.
• Hands-on experience with high-speed data movement, memory interfaces, clock-domain crossings, and FPGA debugging.
• Experience implementing digital signal processing algorithms such as FFTs, filtering, beam forming, detection, or related radar processing.

Bonus Points

• Advanced degree in Electrical Engineering, Signal Processing, Radar Systems, or a related field.
• Experience with modern radar architectures (MIMO, phased arrays, FMCW, pulse-Doppler, passive radar) and digital signal processing.
• Experience with embedded Linux, FPGA/software co-design, device drivers, or deployed radar and defense systems.
