FPGA Design Engineer

Full Job Description

FPGA Design Engineer with DSP  – Advanced Surveillance Systems.  Exciting growth has led to a requirement for a FPGA Design Engineer to join a market leader in the development of advanced radar and surveillance equipment. The FPGA Design Engineer will bring experience of implementing signal processing algorithms with high speed I/O in FPGA as well as experience using Xilinx design tools. Hybrid / Remote with 10% of time needed in office. 

Of particular interest is knowledge of radar, sonar or similar sensor systems and an understanding of radar signal processing techniques.

The FPGA Design engineer will take the lead on DSP system design and architecture; will design and verify FPGA code (VHDL or Verilog) using Xilinx design tools as well as designing software for test and verification.

Skills Summary for the FPGA Engineer includes:

• A Technical Degree or equivalent industrial experience.
• Development using Xilinx design tools such as Vivado.
• Implementing signal processing algorithms with High-Speed I/O in FPGA.
• Appreciation of High-Speed digital circuits for real time applications.
• Design verification by both simulation and hardware testing.
• Some software design using C/C++, Python or similar.

As a key member of a highly skilled multidisciplinary engineering team, you will be the sole FPGA Engineer taking full responsibility for digital signal processing. Hybrid/remote working is on offer with around one day needed in office per week or 10% annually. Flexibility is there to fit with the ideal candidate.
