Qualifications
Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline.
10 years of FPGA/ASIC design and verification work experience.
Proficient in writing FPGA‑level requirements.
Experience writing RTL using Verilog, SystemVerilog, or VHDL (SystemVerilog preferred).
Experience with clock‑domain crossing techniques and analysis.
Experience with FPGA development tools such as Xilinx Vivado and Microchip Libero.
Experience with FPGA timing constraint definition, STA, and timing closure.
Proficient in testbench design and usage.
Experience with QuestaSim or equivalent simulator.
Experience debugging failures in simulation to root‑cause problems.
Experience using FPGA design and verification tools in a Linux environment.
Working knowledge of DO‑254 or other safety‑critical standards.
Ability to influence others and communicate effectively.
Desired
Master of Science in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline.
Experience with sophisticated verification techniques such as UVM and constrained random verification.
Experience with scripting languages.
Experience with revision control systems such as Git or SVN.
Experience with common on‑chip bus protocols such as AMBA (AXI, AHB, APB).
