Job Title

Senior ASIC/FPGA Verification Engineer (Onsite) - Active Secret

Role Summary

Senior verification engineer on the Applied Research and Technology Microelectronics Technology team at Collins Aerospace. Responsible for chip-level verification of high-performance ASICs and FPGAs used in mission systems. This role is onsite in Fort Wayne, IN.

Experience Level

Senior - typically requires 5+ years of relevant experience, or 3+ years with an advanced degree in a related field.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include verification environment architecture, testbench development, and collaboration with design teams to validate ASIC/FPGA solutions.

• Architect and implement verification environments using SystemVerilog with OVM/UVM.
• Create written test plans, testcases, and track code and functional coverage.
• Develop and run testbenches for RTL blocks using VHDL or SystemVerilog.
• Collaborate with design engineers on integration and validation of ASIC/FPGA solutions.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers; may lead verification project activities and reporting.
• Contribute to engineering estimates for program pursuits.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and mandatory hiring constraints; preferred skills listed after must-haves.

• Active, transferable U.S. government Secret clearance required prior to start; U.S. citizenship required.
• Experience developing and simulating RTL using VHDL and/or Verilog in professional FPGA or ASIC environments.
• Ability to design, implement, and execute verification testbenches using VHDL and/or SystemVerilog.
• Working knowledge of chip-level verification methodologies: constrained-random testing, functional coverage, and assertion-based verification (SystemVerilog).
• Familiarity with revision control concepts and tools (e.g., Git, Subversion).

Nice-to-have:

• Experience with high-speed digital interfaces and protocols (DDR, PCIe, Ethernet).
• ASIC/FPGA lab validation and debug experience using standard lab equipment.
• Proficiency with simulation and synthesis tools such as QuestaSim, Synplify, Quartus, or Vivado.
• Proficiency with Unix/Linux environments and scripting or software development.
• Background in aerospace, defense, or mission-critical systems.

Education Requirements

Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM). An advanced degree in a related field is acceptable and is associated with a reduced experience requirement (advanced degree + ~3 years).
