FPGA Engineer

As an FPGA Engineer, you will:

• Work collaboratively with experts in the field to design and implement Firmware for advanced digital systems.
• Utilise design tools such as Xilinx, TCL, Verilog, System Verilog, and UVM.
• Apply knowledge of FPGA architectures including Xilinx 7, Xilinx UltraScale, Intel (Altera), or Microsemi (Actel).
• Integrate fast interfaces such as PCIe, Ethernet, and JESD into designs.
• Generate auto code using model-driven engineering with Matlab and Simulink tools.
• Derive detailed Firmware requirements and architecture from system requirements.
• Adopt a structured approach to firmware design, aligned with standards such as RTCA DO-254 or similar.

The ideal candidate will have experience in:

• Design tools such as Xilinx, TCL, Verilog, System Verilog, and UVM.
• FPGA architectures like Xilinx 7, Xilinx UltraScale, Intel (Altera), or Microsemi (Actel).
• Fast interfaces, including PCIe, Ethernet, and JESD.
• Model-driven engineering using Matlab and Simulink tools.
• Deriving Firmware requirements and architecture from system specifications.
• Applying cryptography and anti-tamper techniques.
• Utilising artificial intelligence, machine learning, and genetic algorithms.
• Employing electronics test methods and equipment.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Working cohesively in mixed discipline teams.
• Holding an HNC/HND or Undergraduate Degree in Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, AI, Games Programming, Physics, or Applied Physics; or equivalent practical experience.
