You will be the Senior ASIC & FPGA Design Engineer for the Programmable Logic Design team supporting the Next Generation Short Range Interceptor (NGSRI). Our team creates the digital heart beats—ASICs and FPGAs—that enable precision engagement aerospace and defense systems for the United States and allied forces.

• Defining architecture and design specifications for programmable logic components; writing clean, well documented RTL in VHDL/Verilog/System Verilog.
• Developing synthesis, place and route, and timing closure strategies to achieve deterministic operation on target FPGA families.
• Building comprehensive test plans, simulation models, and verification environments (UVM, System
  
  C, Python based test benches) to prove functional correctness and timing margins.
• Leading hardware in the loop (HIL) testing, board level debugging, and subsystem integration.
• Performing timing analysis, power budgeting, and resource utilization studies to guide device selection and optimize FPGA utilization.
• Managing configuration control with Git Lab (or equivalent), maintaining version controlled repositories, and ensuring full traceability of all artifacts.
• Producing complete design packages—specifications, test plans, verification reports, and release documentation—meeting aerospace standards and Lockheed Martin command media requirements.
• Collaborating with systems, software, mechanical, test, manufacturing, and quality teams to keep the program on schedule and within performance envelopes.
• Mentoring junior engineers, championing best practices in FPGA/ASIC development, verification, and configuration management.

• LM/MFC design experience and missile program experience
• Experience with DSP, radios, and digital communications for datalink and telemetry uses on a small form factor
• Experienced on Xilinx SOC platforms and analog devices transceivers
• Capable of writing Verilog, Simulink for HDL coder, and C/C++
• Experience with MATLAB/HDL Coder
• Experience with digital Communication system
• Strong communication, collaboration, and presentation abilities
• Active DoD Secret or Top Secret clearance
