Description du poste

We are a Belgian engineering consulting firm that assists SMEs and large industrial organizations in bringing their innovation and R&D initiatives to life.

We are seeking a talented and motivated FPGA Engineer to contribute to the design and validation of RTL code for FPGA-based units.

As a FPGA Engineer, you will join an agile development team that works around a specific unit. Possible units are on-board computers, software defined radios, image sensors, optical transceivers and network switches.

These topics will get you through challenging signal or image processing algorithms, innovative optical solutions and high-throughput routing procedures.

In these development teams, communication and cooperation among diverse team members are key, often blurring the lines between competences.

You will work closely with PCB designers (EE engineers) and embedded software engineers and depending on the project, also with the RF, optical or network engineers.

Our missions

• Answer the challenging requirements with innovative solutions


• Cope with the challenging space environment


• Create critical, high quality gateware

Our work environment

• RTL: VHDL


• Simulation: Questasim, Makefile, Python, TCL


• Tests on target: Makefile, Embedded-C, Embedded-Linux, FreeRTOS, Python


• CI/CD: Gitlab, Docker

Key activities

• Analyze and define the FPGA design architecture based on system requirements


• Design, simulate, integrate and test RTL-code


• Write and test software driver code


• Write technical documentation, testbenches and on-target test procedures


• Interacting with other engineering teams (EE, RF, Operations teams, Embedded Software, etc.)

Profile / Requirements

Must have

• Master, PhD in Computer, Electronics or Mecatronics Engineering or equivalent through experience


• Knowledge of RTL programming languages (in order of preference: VHDL, Verilog, SystemVerilog)


• Knowledge of C and Python


• Experience with version control


• Understanding of the FPGA design flow (synthesis, place & route, etc)


• Understanding of software and hardware interactions


• Excellent verbal and written skills to interact across teams


• Comfortable in a lab environment: ability to use power supplies, oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzer


• Good English knowledge


• Eagerness to learn & passion for digital design

Nice to have

• Experience with C or Python


• Experience of continuous integration


• Experience with digital signal or image processing


• Experience with Embedded-Linux (CLI usage & kernel customization)


• Experience with High-speed transceivers, PCIe or network interfaces (1G to 100G)


• Experience with memory interfaces (DDR3, DDR4, DDR5)


• Experience with PCB and hardware design


• Strong understanding of the FPGA design flow (synthesis, place & route, etc)


• Strong understanding of software and hardware interactions

Why join us?

We offer you a position as a consultant within the fascinating world of high tech and innovation. We provide a complete package with on one side training, coaching and a close follow-up, and on the other side a balanced salary package with fringe benefits based on your capabilities and experience.

Working with us means choosing a long-term perspective, development possibilities, and a personal approach. A human-centered, diverse company that values and supports your physical and mental well-being.
