About the Role

Job Title: Senior FPGA Engineer
Job Description

This Senior FPGA Engineer role owns the FPGA hardware logic inside a rover, developing real-time, deterministic avionics logic from initial concept through flight. You will design FPGA architectures, write RTL that becomes physical logic, and bridge hardware and software in a demanding space environment. This is a Senior, hands-on position where you collaborate closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver flight-ready FPGA solutions.

Responsibilities

  • Support FPGA RTL development from a blank sheet concept through flight-ready implementation, ensuring reliable performance in a space environment.
  • Develop FPGA logical architectures and detailed requirements in collaboration with other engineering disciplines, clearly defining hardware and software interfaces between fabric logic and processing subsystems.
  • Design and implement RTL code for Microsemi, Xilinx, or other FPGA ...
