What could be more rewarding?
Senior FPGA Engineer
As a Senior FPGA Engineer, you will play a crucial role in designing, implementing, and optimizing FPGA-based solutions for our healthcare sensor systems.
You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including hardware engineers, radar systems engineers, software developers, and data scientists.
Your expertise in designing and implementing robust FPGA-based systems will be instrumental in building our custom sensor for real-time analytics on our healthcare platform.
Core Requirements
Extensive experience (5+ years) in FPGA design, development, and implementation using Verilog or VHDL.
Hands-on experience in hardware-software integration and system testing, including working directly with standard lab equipment (oscilloscopes, power supplies, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, etc.).
Embedded HW & SW integration experience in bare-metal or real-time operating system environments.
Working knowledge of standard communication interfaces (SPI, UART, Ethernet, I2C, USB)
Experience aiding in the bring-up of custom PCBs.
Solid understanding of high-speed digital design principles and methodologies.
Experience with real-time data processing and optimization techniques.
Desired Skill Set
C / C++ for embedded systems (not required, but highly desirable).
Experience designing fixed-point implementations targeting FPGAs.
Proficiency in radar signal processing techniques, DSP algorithms, and ML preferred but not essential.
Matlab / Simulink / Octave or similar tool knowledge
Programming skill set with scripting languages (e.g. Python, TCL, Perl, etc.)
Personal Qualities
We’d love you to be self-aware, thoughtful, empathetic, diligent, hard working, a lifelong learner, and a great team player.
You’d show us that you have :
Strong interpersonal skills and the ability, perhaps even a passion, to build camaraderie and work effectively on difficult goals with a broad range of business and technical collaborators across cultures, skills, and time zones
Self-awareness to know your own superpower (nobody is great at all things) and the humility to permit others to exercise theirs on a team of accomplished specialists
Respect and empathy to recognize and support the goals of the company, your team, and colleagues in ways that build trust for people to feel safe to disagree and commit (The Amazon Way)
A work ethic that doesn’t quit, that recognizes that time-to-market is often the only thing that separates teams that win from those that don’t ( No matter how hard you work, someone else is working harder. Elon Musk)
Tenacity and a dogged determination to never give up
Innate hunger to constantly do better and evolve both your work product and yourself (You’re a lifelong learner)
The courage to move fast, break things, and ship products that people use ( Real artists ship. Steve Jobs)
Exceptional communication skills with attention to detail and precision in your spoken and written words and your work product
Education and Experience
A Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent work experience
Real-world work experience in relevant roles in a commercial setting
Ideally, full life cycle experience with an electronics product that has shipped and achieved meaningful commercial success
Job Responsibilities
Design and implement FPGA architectures to efficiently process radar data and perform digital signal processing tasks.
Develop and optimize FPGA designs to accelerate ML algorithms and enhance system performance.
Collaborate with hardware engineers to define system-level requirements and interface specifications.
Work closely with software developers to integrate FPGA designs into larger system frameworks.
Debug and resolve issues related to FPGA designs, ensuring functionality, reliability, and performance.
Conduct thorough testing and verification of FPGA designs, employing best practices and industry standards.
Stay updated with the latest advancements in FPGA technology, DSP algorithms, and ML techniques to drive innovation and enhance our solutions.
