FPGA Design Engineer, Government

In this role you will help develop high-speed signal processing algorithms and/or network protocols in FPGAs. The individual will be responsible for the full design phase starting from the requirements phase to documentation block diagrams implementation of source code simulation place & route testing in hardware and integration. The individual will collaborate with other engineers from different fields and must be capable of working in both a small team setting and a larger team setting. Experience in the development of high-performance FPGA designs network encryptors and cryptographic devices is a plus.
