Job description

The engineer will write software that interfaces with FPGA hardware and other system components, while also developing test tools and supporting system checkout.

The strongest need is embedded Linux experience, especially Red Hat Linux.

The candidate should understand how software interacts with FPGA-connected hardware. Device-driver expertise is helpful.

Day-to-day work may include developing software commands to send and receive messages from system components, building test utilities, collecting performance metrics, testing transmit/receive paths, analyzing timing and latency, measuring throughput, developing unit tests, and validating data flows through the system.

For communication protocols such as Ethernet, PCIe, and USB, the team is more focused on the software/protocol interaction layer than low-level electrical implementation.

Required skills: Communication Protocols (USB, Ethernet, PCIe, I2C, SPI) Software unit testing CI/CD pipelines Scripting languages - all equal Real-Time Embedded Systems (RTOS, VxWorks, Xenomai, Linux) - at a minimum, candidates must have Linux.Supporting FPGA-baed Radar hardware
