Digital Design Engineer

• Bachelor’s degree, Master’s degree, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or related scientific/engineering field • Strong knowledge of hardware description languages including VHDL, Verilog, and/or System Verilog • Experience designing and testing programmable logic designs targeting System on Chip (SoC) FPGA architectures that required integration of the programmable logic with on-chip software processing • Experience with unit-level and FPGA chip level verification of RTL • Experience with laboratory benchtop testing of FPGA designs including the use of integrated logic analyzers (e.g. ChipScope) and/or laboratory equipment such as stand-alone logic analyzers or digital oscilloscopes • Experience designing, testing, and debugging high-speed I/O interfaces and protocols utilizing an FPGA’s built-in SERDES • Experiencing developing, designing, and programmable logic for signal processing applications • Strong verbal and written communications skills including collaborating with other on-site and/or remote technical team members, preparing and sharing technical results with others, and documenting work to aid other team members and activities

Desired Skills: • Experience developing and testing with Xilinx-based RFSoC devices • Experience using Modelsim/Questa/CocoTB toolchain for RTL simulation • Familiarity with continuous integration (CI) pipelines for joint FPGA and embedded software development • Familiarity with Ethernet, Infiniband, and/or PCIe protocols, testing, tools, and debugging • Familiarity with RDMA and RoCE protocols • Experience programming in Python

-Candidate should expect to be onsite 5 days/week due to the nature of the work. Candidates expected to be local at the start of the assignment. -Interim clearance is sufficient for the start of this assignment, however ACTIVE SECRET is HIGHLY preferred.
