FPGA Engineer

Job Title

FPGA Engineer

Role Summary

Design and verify FPGA hardware and associated test environments. The role spans RTL development, verification (UVM/SystemVerilog), hardware bring-up and full hardware lifecycle activities, and requires collaboration with a verification team across locations.

The engineer will provide technical and DO-254 process guidance to the verification team and mentor emerging engineers at the India GETC-I site.

Experience Level

Mid-level. Substantial hands-on FPGA or ASIC development experience is expected; senior candidates typically have 5+ years of relevant experience.

Responsibilities

Primary duties include RTL development, verification, hardware validation, and mentoring across distributed teams.

• Develop RTL and verification testbenches using VHDL, Verilog, and SystemVerilog.
• Create UVM constrained-random verification environments.
• Perform static timing analysis, linting, and clock-domain-crossing (CDC) analyses.
• Execute hardware lab testing and FPGA verification during board bring-up.
• Manage hardware lifecycle tasks: requirements capture, decomposition, architecture, synthesis, placement & routing.
• Coordinate with and mentor engineers at the India GETC-I site; deliver technical and DO-254 process guidance.
• Support integration and validation activities on target FPGA platforms.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience:

• Expert-level verification experience with SystemVerilog and/or UVM, or demonstrable FPGA verification experience in lab testing.
• Hands-on experience with VHDL and Verilog.
• Experience with static timing analysis, linting tools, and CDC verification.
• Experience across hardware lifecycle steps including synthesis and place & route.
• Practical FPGA or ASIC development and hardware bring-up experience.
• Strong communication and mentoring skills for distributed teams.
• Knowledge of DO-254 processes and ability to provide process guidance.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience with Xilinx products.
• Previous lab-based FPGA validation or hardware-level testing roles.
• Senior-level experience (typically 5+ years).

Education Requirements

Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) field.
