RESPONSIBILITIES:

Kforce's client, a rapidly growing engineering technology company is looking for a Mid-Level or Senior FPGA Hardware Design Engineer. This role offers a competitive compensation package, including base salary, quarterly bonuses, 401K matching, stock/RSUs, and more. We are working directly with the hiring manager on this search assignment.

Overview:

As a Senior FPGA Hardware Design Engineer, you will define system-level requirements, develop embedded hardware architecture, and deliver FPGA and embedded compute implementations. You will be responsible for design, analysis, implementation, and verification of FPGA and embedded processing for electro-mechanical systems, thriving in a fast-paced, hardware-driven environment.

You will manage all aspects of FPGA and board-level embedded processor hardware development to deliver product features, system performance, and quality required. This includes independently creating and implementing FPGA architecture using Verilog HDL, conducting simulations, developing testbenches, and performing timing analysis. You will integrate FPGA design with embedded processors and other functional blocks in the system, including designing custom communication interfaces and protocols.

Your responsibilities also include performing digital design, capturing schematics, and implementing printed circuit board layouts. You will develop hardware test plans, execute verification testing, and debug designs for board bring-up, troubleshooting, and performance tuning. Maintaining design documentation and test reports is crucial, as is participating in system hardware architecture and design reviews.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or a related field
• At least 5 years of work experience for Mid-Level position and 8-12+ years of industry experience for a Senior Level position in FPGA design, a strong understanding of digital design principles
• Proficiency with Verilog or VHDL HDL programming
• Experience with FPGA-based systems such as Lattice, Xilinx, or similar, and familiarity with embedded processors and real-time operating systems are essential or similar
• Experience in developing signal processing algorithms, implementing low-level hardware interfaces, and proficiency in scripting languages like Python are required
• Experience developing C/C++ or Python-based libraries for custom hardware is a plus but not required
• Strong understanding of digital design principals and proficiency with Verilog HDL programming, synthesis, and timing closure or similar
• Familiarity with embedded processors and real-time operating systems
• Experience in developing signal processing algorithms is a plus but not required
• Experience with fixed point implementations would be preferred
• Experience implementing low-level hardware interfaces (LVDS, MIPI, SPI, I2C, custom)
• Experience with high-speed differential data interfaces and serial peripheral interfaces
• Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and interpersonal skills are necessary
• Knowledge of RF, Radar or Imaging systems or optics is a plus but not required
