Onsite U.S. Citizen, U.S. Person, or Immigration Status Requirements:
Active and transferable U.S. government issued security clearance is required prior to start date. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance Security Clearance:
DoD Clearance: Secret At Raytheon, the foundation of everything we do is rooted in our values and a higher calling – to help our nation and allies defend freedoms and deter aggression. We bring the strength of more than 100 years of experience and renowned engineering expertise to meet the needs of today’s mission and stay ahead of tomorrow’s threat. The
Effector Digital Products
(EDP) department develops electronics for our weapon system products. We are responsible for the architecture, design, and documentation of deliverable FPGA embedded processing. We engage at the outset of the weapon system development and follow our designs through deployment. As a
Senior FPGA Design Engineer , you will develop FPGA designs for all major vendors and device families including: Xilinx, Altera, and Microsemi. Designs are implemented using VHDL for the following applications: gigabit serial interfaces, Radio Frequency (RF) and Electro-Optical (EO) DSP, controls, data links, embedded processing and processor interfaces. Designers work with circuit card designers and systems engineers to develop requirements, architect new parts, collaborative modeling of algorithms, partition and perform code development, simulation, and place and route. Designs are verified against requirements using both directed test and constrained random methodologies. What You Will Do
Design and deliver production quality FPGA releases from initial proof of concept up to production 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 Help drive projects and execute to program schedules on time and budget Create complete documentation including requirements, verification plan, and user’s guides Lead small teams and mentor junior engineers Support internal and external technical reviews Qualifications You Must Have
Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering Technology A minimum of 5 years of experience to include the following:
FPGA/ASIC design (VHDL and/or Verilog coding) or FPGA/ASIC verification (SystemVerilog coding) Xilinx or Microsemi devices and flow tools Delivering FPGA/ASIC solutions to system level applications Hands on experience with integration and debug of FPGA/ASIC devices
The ability to obtain and maintain a US security clearance prior to the start date. U.S. citizenship is required as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance Ability to obtain Interim Secret U.S. government issued security clearance prior to start date. Qualifications We Prefer
FPGA/ASIC design experience in one or more of the following areas:
Radar processing techniques Image processing techniques for visual and infrared sensors Embedded systems design using ARM, Microblaze, or Nios processors Gigabit serial interfaces and multi-gigabit transceivers (MGTs) Constrained random verification in UVM using System Verilog Verification utilizing emulation platforms, such as Veloce
What We Offer
Our values drive our actions, behaviors, and performance with a vision for a safer, more connected world. At RTX we value: Safety, Trust, Respect, Accountability, Collaboration, and Innovation. This position offers relocation RTX is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability or veteran status, or any other applicable state or federal protected class.
