Role Description

As an Electrical/FPGA Engineer, you will focus on design, development, and integration of FPGA-based digital systems for use in spaceborne and high-reliability environments.

  • Design, implement, and test digital systems using FPGAs (e.g., Xilinx, Microsemi, Intel/Altera) for space applications
  • Develop HDL code (VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog) for FPGA modules, including simulation, synthesis, place-and-route, and timing analysis
  • Design and analyze digital and analog/mixed-signal electrical circuits, including power supplies, sensor interfaces, and communication buses
  • Develop hardware schematics and support PCB layout for FPGA-based subsystems
  • Support hardware bring-up, debugging, and validation in lab environments
  • Define connector and cable harnessing for space environments
  • Integrate FPGAs with embedded processors, sensors, and high-speed interfaces (e.g., SPI, I2C, UART, LVDS, SpaceWire, Ethernet)
  • Contribute to system-level architectural decisions and participate in design reviews
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with mechanical, software, and systems teams to ensure cohesive hardware solutions

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
  • 4–5 years of relevant experience in electrical and FPGA design
  • Proficiency in VHDL or Verilog and FPGA development toolchains (e.g., Vivado, Quartus, Libero)
  • Proficient in HDL simulation tools (Modelsim, Vivado Simulator, VCS) and experience developing SystemVerilog-based simulation environments
  • Experience with board-level electrical design, schematic capture, and layout tools (e.g., Altium Designer, KiCad, OrCAD)
  • Familiarity with signal integrity, power distribution, and EMI/EMC best practices
  • Strong debugging skills using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers)
  • Working knowledge of hardware development for harsh environments (radiation tolerance, thermal constraints)
  • Eligible to hold a security clearance

Benefits

  • Open Time Off
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • Medical, Dental, Vision Insurance
  • 401k Matching
  • Health Savings Account, Flexible Spending Accounts, Dependent Care FSA
  • Wellness Stipend
  • Work From Home Stipend
  • Life Insurance
  • Long-term Disability plans
