Job description

Want to take FPGA programming to a whole new level?

We develop modern ASIC/FPGA systems composed of dedicated logic IP cores as well as the software controlling them. We incorporate best practices from the software world into the digital development process by employing Continuous Integration workflows to perform simulation (e.g. Verilator, Icarus) verification (e.g. cocotb, UVM), run unit tests or check code coverage. We work with FPGA chips from vendors like AMD, Intel, Lattice, Microchip and use HDLs like SystemVerilog, Verilog, Chisel and VHDL.

As a Digital Design/FPGA developer you will be responsible for designing, implementing and testing data processing IP cores, balancing data transfers as well as designing and implementing interfaces for all the blocks in the system. You will work closely with our cross-functional engineering team to deliver high-performance, reliable solutions for ASIC/FPGA-based systems. On top of that you will be developing software - from bare metal firmware, through operating system drivers, up to user space applications interacting with the FPGA logic.

Requirements

• BSc or MSc in computer science, electronics or related fields
• knowledge of HDLs (e.g. SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL, Chisel)
• good understanding of computer architecture
• experience in designing and testing digital circuits
• experience in developing testbenches and using simulation tools for design verification
• familiarity with embedded systems and hardware/software co-design
• expertise in C/C++
• knowledge of AXI, AHB, APB, Wishbone
• knowledge of communication interfaces such as UART, I2C, I3C, SPI, TileLink
• knowledge of fast communication interfaces such as PCI, PCIe, USB, ChipLink
• understanding of SoC FPGAs (e.g. AMD Zynq 7000 SoC, AMD Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC, Intel Arria 10 SoC, Microchip PolarFire SoC)
• knowledge of Linux and its internals
• experience with such tools as Bash, Git, GCC, make, CMake
• Python and/or other scripting languages are welcome
• permanent residency and eligibility to work in the EU
• readiness to work on-site
• full-time employment only (no B2B, no agencies)
