Responsibiliti
es: We are seeking a Principal/Staff-level FPGA Engineer — a recognized technical authority — to own FPGA architecture for our state-of-the-art Communications Test & Measurement produ
cts.
The successful candidate will define and drive end-to-end FPGA architecture, including make/buy tradeoffs on IP, floorplanning and timing closure strategy for multi-gigabit designs, and DFX approach, using Verilog/System
Verilog/VHDL and industry-leading simulation, synthesis, place-and-route, and formal/UVM verification tools.
This person will serve as the final technical escalation point for FPGA design and debug issues across the team, mentor other FPGA engineers, and lead root-cause debug of silicon and board bring-up issues that could not be resolved elsewh
ere.
