Programacion jobs in Spain

We\'re looking for a FPGA Engineer to join our Optronics team in Granada, Spain.

Safran is a global leader in optronics, delivering cutting-edge electro-optical systems for defense, aerospace, and security applications. Our portfolio features multispectral imaging technologies, including infrared and visible spectrum sensors, integrated into airborne, naval, and land platforms to support missions from surveillance and reconnaissance to targeting and navigation. We are also a leader in Resilient Positioning, Navigation and Timing (R-PNT) solutions that improve reliability, performance and safety of critical applications, including in GPS/GNSS denied environments. Our solutions are built around ultra-accurate synchronization and frequency distribution services, delivering products based on enhanced White Rabbit PTP synchronization technology for various applications. We are experts in control systems and diagnostics for particle accelerators and scientific facilities, delivering innovative elements with time as a core value.

We are looking for an FPGA Engineer specialized in image and video processing who will work with a talented and diverse engineering team to develop a high-performance multi-camera platform for airborne systems. The platform integrates multiple video streams and requires advanced real-time video processing to deliver a unified output to the pilot in degraded environments.

As part of the optronics engineering team, you will be responsible for implementing key FPGA image and video processing functions such as:

• Video acquisition and preprocessing from multiple camera sources.
• Video distribution with left/right channel segregation.
• Integration with avionics and video interfaces such as 3G-SDI, ARINC 429, Ethernet and MIL-STD-1553 for synchronized data exchange.
• Automatic histogram control for dynamic contrast optimization.
• Global contrast harmonization to ensure seamless blending of multiple video sources.
• Image stitching for enabling a wide field-of-view visualization.
• Real-time image extraction.

The ideal candidate is proactive and capable of collaborating with cross-functional engineering groups such as industrial design, product design, production test, FPGA and hardware engineering.

• Work with a friendly and positive team to design a new high-performance multi-camera platform for airborne systems.
• Contribute to international projects using the latest in video processing technologies.
• Understand requirements, develop innovative projects, plan new features, and ensure developments are delivered according to specification.
• Collaborate with Hardware, FPGA, and Mechanical Engineers to ensure the platform meets its intended purpose.
• Apply critical thinking and problem-solving to ensure the highest quality within scheduling, budget, and effort constraints.
• Maintain effective communication with project partners and project managers from kick-off to stakeholder meetings.
• Participate in internal meetings to build a comprehensive work plan and manage budget and personnel effort.
• Write deliverables and dissemination material, assist in project-related communications, and attend workshops and events.
• Develop key FPGA image and video processing functions and validate designs with test benches, simulations, and experimental evaluation strategies.

• A Bachelor\'s or Master\'s degree in Telecommunications, Electronic or Computer Engineering.
• Passion, energy, and motivation to participate in industrial R&D projects and initiatives.
• Teamwork, organizational skills, autonomy, and project management.
• Good written and communication skills in English.
• Knowledge of Xilinx FPGA tools and platforms (Vivado, Vitis, HLS, etc.).
• General understanding of FPGA logic design and verification.
• FPGA logic design (VHDL/Verilog, SystemVerilog, test bench implementation, debugging, timing closure, etc.).
• Proven expertise in implementing and debugging FPGA IP cores for video-processing algorithms (filtering, segmentation, edge detection, object detection, tracking, etc.).
• Extensive experience with repositories and version control systems (Git, SVN, etc.).
• Minimal experience required: 3 years.

• Knowledge of avionics and video interfaces such as 3G-SDI, ARINC 429, Ethernet and MIL-STD-1553.
• Proven expertise in Design Assurance Level (DAL) compliance, particularly DAL C, for airborne platforms.
• Knowledge of advanced FPGA applications in image/video processing, including: Basic Image Processing, Feature Extraction & Analysis, Object Detection & Tracking, Stereo Vision, Video Processing, Image Mosaicking & Registration.
• Previous experience in R&D projects.
• Basic knowledge of some programming languages for embedded systems (C, C++, Python).
• Knowledge of SCRUM, JIRA or agile methodologies.

• Be part of a leading and expanding company.
• Health insurance.
• Flexible work schedule.
• International and dynamic environment in Granada, Spain.
• High possibilities to grow inside the company.
• Professional Career Plan.
• Salary flex.
