Senior FPGA​/Digital Design Engineer

At AV Inc., we don't just build technology—we launch it into the future. We are seeking a visionary Senior FPGA / Digital Design Engineer to take the helm of our next generation of high-reliability digital boards and FPGA systems.

If you are a seasoned engineer who thrives at the intersection of complex architecture and mission-critical execution, this is your opportunity to lead high-profile aerospace and defense projects from initial concept to flight-ready reality. You will be instrumental in driving project performance, mentoring engineering talent, and delivering robust, real-time control systems that withstand the most demanding environments.

• Architect & Innovate:
  Lead the design and implementation of complex, multi-vendor FPGA systems (including AMD/Xilinx, Microchip, and Lattice).
• Design for Extreme Reliability:
  Develop fault-tolerant, triple-redundant voting logic systems for flight actuator controllers and cutting-edge space-flight applications.
• Master High-Speed Communication:
  Integrate high-speed data interfaces and robust command/telemetry protocols, including MIL-STD-1553 (RT/BC), Ethernet (100
  
  Mbps/1
  
  Gbps), Space Wire, AXI, RS-422, and PCI.
• Simulate & Verify:
  Ensure absolute precision by conducting comprehensive board- and system-level mixed simulations ($VHDL$ and $Verilog$) to achieve perfect timing closure.
• Lead System Integration:
  Spearhead hardware-software co-design, board bring‑up, and qualification testing to seamlessly merge embedded logic with physical hardware.
• Champion Technical Leadership:
  Act as the primary technical interface for customers, ensure compliance with strict aerospace standards, and mentor the team to hit major milestones and incentive targets.

• Education:
  
  BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related field.
• Experience:
  
  10+ years of progressive engineering experience spanning digital board design, FPGA development, and aerospace/defense systems.
• Proven Track Record: A history of successfully delivering high-profile aerospace projects (e.g., satellite control computers, high-performance control systems, or advanced telemetry systems).
