FPGA Engineer

Hardware Engineer

As a Hardware Engineer at our company, you will be responsible for architecture, design and development of next generation Electronic Safe and Arm Devices utilizing the latest state of the art technologies. ASIC / FPGA designs will include various sensor interfaces, sequence verification, A/D and D/A interfaces, communication protocols, state machines, timer chains, etc. used in Electronic Safe and Arm Devices (Fuzes) for DOD weapon systems. Microsemi / Actel is our targeted FPGA and QuestaSim is our simulation tool. The primary responsibilities will focus on Verilog FPGA design, System Verilog UVM verification and C# based microcontroller development.

Essential Functions:

• Analysis of the requirements, architecture definition, design and debug of FPGA and associated hardware and microcontroller products and associated firmware.
• Developing Verilog HDL targeting Antifuse and enhanced Flash FPGA's.
• Performing effective analysis of functional issues or performance profiling with the hardware and firmware in test environments or target host systems.
• Contribute to process improvements to ensure hardware-firmware quality and time-to-market.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree and minimum 6 years of prior relevant experience. Graduate Degree and a minimum of 4 years of prior related experience. In lieu of a degree, minimum of 10 years of prior related experience.
• Knowledge using Verilog for Logic Design.
• Programming experience in C for embedded systems, including development of algorithms, manipulation of data structures, and implementing highly optimized code.
• Experience with lab tools: Logic Analyzers, oscilloscopes, JTAG/ICE debuggers and protocol analyzers.

Preferred Additional Skills:

• Knowledge using System Verilog for verification with AVM, VMM, OVM, or UVM a plus.
• Developing C# source code targeting enhanced Flash Microcontrollers.
