FPGA

Location: Chicago, IL

We are seeking a seasoned FPGA Engineer to join a high-performance engineering team focused on building scalable, low-latency hardware solutions. This is an opportunity to take ownership of end-to-end silicon design and verification, developing sophisticated IP cores that power complex, high-speed data processing platforms. You will play a critical role in architectural decisions and the evolution of our hardware-accelerated infrastructure.

• Architect and implement sophisticated FPGA/ASIC designs using hardware description languages.

• Develop modular, reusable IP components designed to scale across diverse hardware platforms.

• Lead the verification process to ensure high-reliability performance in production environments.

• Integrate high-speed transceivers and optimize network protocol stacks for efficient packet handling.

• Collaborate on software-hardware interfaces, utilizing C++ and scripting to streamline the development lifecycle.

• Maintain and improve build systems and automated workflows for hardware deployment.

• Substantial professional experience in the full FPGA/ASIC development lifecycle.

• Expertise in System Verilog, Verilog, or VHDL.

• Advanced proficiency with industry-standard FPGA synthesis and simulation tool chains.

• Strong programming background in C or C++, with an understanding of software compilation processes.

• Competency in scripting for automation using Python, TCL, or Bash.

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.

• Hands-on experience with high-speed serial links and transceivers.

• Deep understanding of Ethernet networking protocols and real-time packet processing.

• Familiarity with CMake for managing complex build environments.
