Field-Programmable Gate Arrays Engineer

We are looking for Senior FPGA Engineers to contribute to the design, testing, and integration of FPGA-based digital signal processing and control algorithms for advanced RF transmitter systems. Key Responsibilities: Define and document functional requirements. Design, simulate, and implement FPGA-based digital signal processing, such as baseband signal processing. Develop FPGA-based circuit card assemblies using schematic capture. Build and test hardware prototypes utilizing oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and logic analyzers. Coordinate and define software tasks related to hardware-software interfaces in FPGA-based circuit card assemblies. Qualifications: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering with 8+ years of relevant experience. Proficiency with Xilinx FPGA design flows, including ISE and Vivado, with VHDL design expertise. Extensive experience with FPGA design processes, including simulation, synthesis, implementation, and timing closure. Hands-on experience with Xilinx 7 series devices. Expertise in FPGA-based real-time DSP implementation, including decimation/interpolation filters, fractional delay filters, asynchronous sample rate conversion, NCO, Hilbert transforms, FFT, and waveform generation. Knowledge of FPGA hardware interfaces for RF sampling and waveform generation using A/D and D/A converters. Experience with FPGA-based high-speed memory and bus interfaces such as PCIe and DDR3. Strong understanding of hardware-software interaction (e.g., Linux host/PCIe endpoint). Active DoD-issued Secret clearance. Preferred Qualifications: Experience with RF system design, particularly high-power or high-speed communication transmissions. MATLAB/Simulink modeling of signal processing systems, with the ability to convert high-level models into FPGA implementations. Proficiency in high-level programming (C) and the ability to develop simple software applications for FPGA testing in a Linux environment.
