Job Description:

The opportunity:

We are looking for a wide range of Firmware Engineers at various levels to join Leonardo in Edinburgh and Newcastle. Leonardo is a world-class defence technology company. We develop cutting-edge Radars for the Eurofighter Typhoon and SAAB Gripen fighter jets, as well as maritime and airborne surveillance systems. We are also investors in innovation, undertaking all our own research to fuel our future products. We are recruiting talented, motivated engineers to join our growing Electronics team.

This is an exciting opportunity for you as an engineer to bring your skillset and knowledge to a fast-paced, dynamic and forward-thinking working environment. You will be involved with FPGA firmware development across the Radar and Advanced Targeting line of business, working as part of a larger, multi-disciplinary team. The key duties of the role will be design and development of firmware designs, managing development activities through the project and engineering lifecycles, and delivering the final solution.

What you’ll do as a Firmware Engineer:

1. Hardware requirements capture and management.
2. Concept development for complex functions and systems.
3. FPGA design and analysis.
4. Production of material for design reviews.
5. Development of test planning, integration and design verification.
6. Ensure that all firmware designs follow the company firmware process.

What we need from you:

You will ideally have experience in the following areas, depending on the level of role you are aiming for:

1. Experience using FPGA technologies from either Xilinx, Intel (Altera) or Microsemi (Actel) and their tools.
2. Experience in verification techniques using either VHDL or System Verilog / UVM.
3. Experience in specifying timing and area constraints for efficient FPGA place and route.
4. Ability to analyse system level requirements and derive detailed firmware requirements.
5. A methodical approach to the full firmware design lifecycle, working to a structured firmware process such as RTCA DO-254 or similar.
6. Experience of debugging firmware designs and supporting verification and integration at hardware and system level alongside Software and Electronic Engineers.
7. Degree (BSc, BEng, MEng, MSc, PhD, EngD) in Electrical & Electronic Engineering (preferable) or related science (e.g. Physics).

Personal attributes and values are just as important to us as technical ability, so we are looking for engineers with a willingness to learn, progress and develop through our devoted technical career path. If you are passionate in what you do and can deliver a pragmatic approach to problem solving, we would like to hear from you.
