Senior FPGA Engineer - Xilinx Artix-7 & VHDL Expert

CamWebDir; United Kingdom; A distancia; GBP 65.000 - 90.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

HUBER+SUHNER Polatis is seeking an experienced FPGA engineer to design and verify VHDL-based logic for Artix-7 FPGAs using Vivado. You will develop deterministic FSMs, implement and validate low-level interfaces (I2C, SPI, UART), and drive tests from board bring-up to production readiness.

The role emphasizes hardware verification, timing closure, documentation, and cross-functional collaboration with electronics and software teams.

Formación

• VHDL for FPGA design and verification required.

Responsabilidades

• Design and implement FPGA logic in VHDL for FPGA devices with Artix-7 and Vivado.
• Develop finite state machines to control hardware interfaces and protocols.
• Create low-level driver logic for I2C and SPI, including initialisation and error handling.
• Write and maintain test benches and perform functional/timing simulations.
• Perform hardware bring-up, lab testing, and iterative debugging with timing constraints.
• Manage constraints (XDC), clocking, resets and CDC analysis; achieve timing closure.
• Contribute to requirements capture, architecture design, module specs, and DFT/DFM considerations.
• Maintain configuration management (SVN) and traceability to requirements.
• Produce design documentation: descriptions, interfaces, test procedures, change logs.
• Participate in design/code reviews and support system integration and field teams.
• Support FPGA flow improvements and test automation (Tcl/Python).
