Description du poste

As part of the strategic growth of our Sophia-Antipolis office, agap2 is currently seeking an FPGA Design and Prototyping Engineer to join our team and contribute to a high-value project in collaboration with one of our key partners.

Key Responsibilities :

• Enhance and optimize existing FPGA-based prototypes using Synopsys HAPS-100 and Xilinx Virtex-7 / UltraScale+ platforms. Perform RTL integration, synthesis, place-and-route, and timing closure for large-scale designs.
• Utilize ProtoCompiler for design partitioning, synthesis, and implementation across multi-FPGA systems.
• Use Synopsys Design Compiler for RTL synthesis and optimization in preparation for FPGA or ASIC implementation.
• Debug and validate FPGA prototypes using tools such as Synopsys Identify, ChipScope, and Vivado Logic Analyzer.
• Collaborate with ASIC / SoC design teams to ensure FPGA compatibility and design fidelity.
• Automate FPGA build and validation flows using scripting languages (TCL, Python, Shell).
• Support software and firmware teams with early access to hardware platforms for development and testing.

Required Qualifications :

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in FPGA design and prototyping.
• Proficiency in FPGA flow (synthesis, timing analysis, and debugging) on Xilinx (Vivado) and Synopsys (HAPS-100, ProtoCompiler).
• Proficiency in Verilog / SystemVerilog.
• Proficiency in scripting (TCL, Python, Shell) for tool automation.
• Understanding of ASIC synthesis using DC Compiler.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills and capable of working in autonomy.
• Understanding of version control systems.
