Resumo da oferta

iRage, one of India's leading high-frequency trading firms, seeks an FPGA Lead to own greenfield RTL architecture and set design standards for nanoseconds-scale data paths.

You will implement RTL in Verilog/SystemVerilog, drive timing closure on AMD/Xilinx devices, and guide a growing team with build-vs-buy decisions and toolchain excellence.

Qualificações

• 7+ years in FPGA development with RTL in Verilog/SystemVerilog.
• Shipped designs in at least two of: PCI Express, Ethernet, memory interfaces, or packet processing.
• Proven timing closure, latency optimization, and resource management.
• Proficient with simulation toolchains: Vivado, Vitis, ModelSim/Questa, Xilinx simulator.
• Solid C and Python for tooling and automation.

Responsabilidades

• Own FPGA architecture for latency-critical trading paths (market data, order entry, host interface).
• Write and optimize production RTL and drive timing closure on AMD/Xilinx devices.
• Set RTL, verification, and resource-management standards for the team.
• Make build-vs-buy decisions on IP and integrate or replace cores as needed.
• Collaborate with trading, quant, and infra teams to turn latency needs into hardware.

Descrição da oferta de emprego

About Us

iRage is one of India's leading high-frequency trading firms. We build and own everything in-house, from ultra-low-latency execution to our entire trading infrastructure.

Our systems deliver some of the lowest latencies in the market, with order-send speeds under 100 nanoseconds. We run thousands of independent portfolios in parallel, carrying overnight positions across thousands of instruments, with tooling that coordinates state and information across hundreds of servers spanning multiple data centres in real time.

The stack is ours end to end : custom FPGA pipelines including PHY and MAC layers we built on hardware firmware in-house and a C++ codebase we control from market-data ingestion through order entry and risk.

Role Summary

As the FPGA Lead, you'll own the greenfield implementation : architecting and building the RTL that moves market data and orders in nanoseconds, setting the design and verification standards the team will work to, and deciding where to lean on existing IP versus building from scratch.

What You'll Do

• Own the FPGA architecture for latency-critical trading paths (market data ingest, order entry, host interface).
• Write and optimize production RTL, then drive it to timing closure on the latest AMD/Xilinx devices.
• Set RTL, verification, and resource-management standards for a growing FPGA team.
• Make build-vs-buy decisions on IP, and integrate or replace existing cores as needed.
• Work directly with trading, quant, and infra teams to turn latency requirements into hardware.

Must Have

• 7+ years in FPGA development, with deep hands-on RTL in Verilog/SystemVerilog.
• Demonstrated ownership of shipped designs in at least two of : network packet processing (PCS, MAC, UDP, TCP/IP), high-speed Ethernet, PCI Express, memory interfaces.
• Proven timing closure on complex designs, plus strong resource management and latency optimization.
• Fluency with simulation and toolchains : Vivado, Vitis, ModelSim/Questa or Xilinx simulator.
• Solid modern C and Python for tooling, host-side integration, and automation.

Nice To Have

• Experience on current-gen Xilinx architectures (UltraScale+, Versal).
• Cryptographic cores / accelerators.
• Low-latency networking or trading-systems background.

Here's What We Offer

• Compensation : competitive package, plus a meaningful performance bonus.
• Generous paid time off.
• Work with top-tier global talent.
• Annual offsites and regular team outings.
• Comprehensive health insurance.
• On-site sports, games, & a lively workspace.
• Regular knowledge-sharing sessions.
• Annual Education Allowance.
• Gym memberships with employer contribution.
• Relocation support.
• Work challenges & extracurricular contests.
