FPGA Design Engineer – DSP & High-Speed Interfaces

We offer: Contract type and compensation will be defined based on the candidate’s experience. We are looking for a talented and experienced

FPGA Designer

to join our R&D team. The successful candidate will be responsible for the

architecture, development, and integration of advanced firmware on state-of-the-art FPGA/SoC technologies . The ideal candidate has strong expertise in the hardware implementation of

digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms

and in managing

ultra-high-speed serial interfaces , working in high-performance application environments (e.g. Telecommunications, Aerospace, Defense, Automotive, or Industrial Automation). The role involves:

Firmware Architecture and Development:

Design and implement complex firmware modules in VHDL, Verilog, or SystemVerilog. Radio and Video Signal Processing (DSP):

Translate, optimize, and implement in silicon mathematical and filtering algorithms (e.g. FIR/IIR filters, FFT, modulations, embedded control loops, RFSoC algorithms, video processing chains) derived from high-level models. High-Speed Interfaces:

Design, configure, and validate high-performance serial interfaces (PCIe, 10/100G Ethernet, JESD204B/C, Aurora, DDR4/DDR5, HDMI, DisplayPort). Simulation and Verification:

Create advanced testbench environments (UVM, SystemVerilog, or using standard tools) for functional verification and pre- and post-synthesis simulation. Timing Closure:

Manage complex timing constraints (SDC/XDC), analyze synthesis reports, and optimize placement and routing (Place & Route) to ensure timing closure at high clock frequencies. Integration and Laboratory Debugging:

Work closely with the Hardware team on electronic board bring-up, using advanced instrumentation such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and bus analyzers. Documentation:

Prepare project technical documentation (architecture, test specifications, registers, and control interfaces). Requirements:

HARD SKILLS Education:

Master’s Degree in Electronic Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent. Experience:

At least 3–5 years of experience in firmware development on FPGA architectures. Reference Platforms:

In-depth knowledge of leading SoC/FPGA platforms (e.g. AMD/Xilinx UltraScale+, Zynq, Versal, or Intel Stratix/Agilex platforms). Hardware Programming Languages:

Full proficiency in VHDL and/or Verilog/SystemVerilog. Development Tools:

Proficiency in native IDE development environments (e.g. Vivado Design Suite, Quartus Prime) and simulation tools (e.g. ModelSim, QuestaSim). Algorithmic Modeling:

Proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink and high-level synthesis tools (HLS – High-Level Synthesis). Signal Integrity:

Basic understanding of issues related to high-speed PCB layout (Signal Integrity and Power Integrity). SOFT SKILLS Problem Solving:

Analytical and methodical approach focused on the rapid identification and resolution of complex hardware bugs. Teamwork:

Ability to collaborate within multidisciplinary teams (System Engineers, Hardware Designers, Embedded Software Engineers). Languages:

Excellent command of technical English, both written and spoken.
