FPGA Engineer Security Clearance

Position: FPGA Engineer with Security Clearance
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. Responsibilities Design FPGA module and system level architectures with Verilog and/or VHDL
Develop simulations for modules and systems
Synthesizes Verilog and/or VHDL to FPGA products
Develop timing constraints, analyze timing results, and implement design changes required to close timing
Generate and collaborate on required design documents, development requirements, specifications and verification protocols
Work closely with hardware and hardware engineers, bringing up boards, interpreting data sheets and schematics
Conduct code and design reviews and participate in multi-functional reviews
Maintain and control FPGA code revision history
Responsible for owning and driving technical issues to resolution
Integrates and debugs design in the laboratory Qualifications Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or a related field
8+ years FPGA design experience
Foundational knowledge of digital logic and timing considerations
Strong written and verbal communication skills, ability to work with a geographically distributed team
Attention to detail, ability to follow process and coding guidelines, participate in code reviews and accept feedback

Experience with Programmable Logic EDA tools, such as AMD/Xilinx ISE/Vivado, Intel/Altera Quartus, Siemens/Mentor Graphics, Synopsys Synplify, Soft Core Micro embedments in Micro Chip, etc.
Proven track record to design and implement FPGA modules using Verilog and/or VHDL with simulation and testbench development
Familiarity with designing and coding for re-use, maintainability and scalability
