JOB SUMMARY

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Staff Digital Design (FPGA) Engineer to join our dynamic engineering team. In this role, you will be instrumental in designing, implementing, and optimizing field-programmable gate array (FPGA) solutions that are critical to our product’s performance and success. If you have a passion for hardware development and a record of excellence in FPGA design, we invite you to apply and help shape the future of our innovative technology.

• Design and implement complex FPGA designs including requirements analysis, specification, RTL coding, simulation, and verification.
• Optimize FPGA designs for performance, resource utilization, power, and cost.
• Collaborate with hardware engineers to define board-level interfaces and ensure the successful integration of FPGA designs.
• Develop and maintain FPGA design documentation, including design specifications, test plans, and user guides.
• Participate in code reviews and promote best practices in RTL coding and design.
• Develop FPGA verification environments using self-checking testbenches and advanced verification methodologies.
• Debug and troubleshoot FPGA designs at both the hardware and system level.
• Participate in architectural discussions and contribute to the development of system-level solutions.
• Maintain knowledge of the latest FPGA technologies and best practices to ensure designs are up-to-date and efficient.
• Support the creation of project timelines and milestones, ensuring FPGA design tasks meet project deadlines.
• Interface with customers and stakeholders to gather requirements and provide technical support as needed.
• Continuously improve the FPGA development process, proposing and implementing design and verification flow enhancements.
• Mentor and coach junior staff on FPGA design techniques and industry standards.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including software, mechanical, and systems engineering to deliver high-quality products.

Requirements:

REQUIRED SKILLS

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