Were looking for a seasoned FPGA engineer who thrives on solving hard technical problems and wants a direct hand in shaping solutions for a wide range of client applications. Youre comfortable owning a design from initial concept through lab debug and you bring the kind of practical battle-tested judgment that only comes from a decade or more of hands-on FPGA development experience.
Youre self-motivated curious and genuinely energized by varietyyoud rather work across multiple projects and unfamiliar applications than settle into a single narrow lane. You communicate well whether youre documenting requirements with a client walking a teammate through a design decision or writing up a technical work package. You bring a research-and-development approach to new challenges and a collaborative instinct that makes you a natural fit within a technically diverse lean team-oriented engineering culture.
If youre looking for a role where your FPGA expertise will be applied to diverse technically challenging client workand where youll have real influence over architecture design and deliverythis opportunity is worth a serious look.

- Architect FPGA solutions and implement robust RTL designs for demanding real-world applications.
- Build simulation environments and self-checking testbenches to verify designs meet their requirements.
- Drive designs through synthesis constraint development clock-domain crossing analysis timing closure and resource optimization.
- Design with high-speed and embedded interfaces such as PCIe Ethernet JESD204 DDR AXI SPI and I2C.
- Bring designs to life on target hardwareintegrating and debugging using oscilloscopes logic analyzers and other lab equipment.
- Collaborate closely with embedded software electrical mechanical and systems engineers across the full product development lifecycle.
- Contribute to design reviews and technical risk assessments helping guide data-driven design decisions.
- Document and hand off FPGA work packages and project deliverables to clients.
