- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics/Electrical/Computer Engineering.
- 7+ years of industry experience in FPGA design and verification.
- Expertise in VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog coding and simulation.
- Experience with FPGA toolchains such as Xilinx Vivado, Intel Quartus, Synplify.
- Strong knowledge of high-speed interfaces (e.g., PCIe, DDR, Ethernet, AXI).
- Familiar with embedded processor systems (MicroBlaze, Nios II, ARM SoCs).
- Proficiency in scripting (Tcl, Python, Shell) for automation.
- Experience with static timing analysis, constraints definition (SDC), and debugging.
- Good understanding of hardware/software integration.
- Excellent leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Prior experience in leading FPGA teams or projects.
- Exposure to safety-critical or mission-critical design environments (e.g., automotive, aerospace, medical).
- Experience with hardware emulation or ASIC prototyping on FPGAs.
- Familiarity with version control systems (Git, SVN) and documentation tools.
Why Join Us?
- Work on cutting-edge FPGA designs in a collaborative environment.
- Competitive compensation with leadership opportunities.
- Growth-focused, innovation-driven engineering culture.
