Job description

Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG)builds the products that power infrastructure, solutions, and data management our customers need most. Our teams design and develop the hardware and software that connect infrastructure, accelerate computational workloads, integrate across the stack, protect data continuity, and deliver the platforms, applications, and diagnostics our customers rely on every day at enterprise scale.

Some product builders follow the rules. Ours rewrite them.

Within ISG, innovation isn't just about creating new technology- it's about challenging assumptions and reimagining how work gets done. Engineers define intent, author precise specifications, and orchestrate AI agents that execute at speed and scale. AI is embedded throughout our development process, helping us move faster, learn quicker, and deliver greater impact. Yet the most important contribution remains uniquely human: deciding what to build, designing how it should work, and applying the judgment needed to earn our customers' trust. When your products power critical infrastructure around the world, that responsibility matters.

We move quickly toward the work that matters most. We reward experimentation, encourage bold thinking, and remove unnecessary barriers so great ideas can become reality faster. Our teams embrace a customer-first, first-to-market mindset, transforming rapid feedback into better products and better outcomes. We aren't looking for people who are content with the status quo- we look for builders who question it, improve it, and occasionally rewrite it.

If you're energized by solving complex systems challenges, excited to work alongside AI to amplify your impact, and motivated by the opportunity to shape what's next instead of simply maintaining what's been done before, you'll find your place here.

Join us and help build the future of enterprise technology as a Senior Principal Electrical Engineer on our FPGA Team in Round Rock, Texas.

Senior Principal Electrical Engineer - FPGA Development

Our FPGA development team puts the spark into the full FPGA development lifecycle, from concept to production. It takes experts in system architecture definition, RTL design, synthesis, timing analysis, prototyping, sourcing, and the debugging and validation of FPGA implementations to deliver state-of-the-art products for a changing world. We work closely with hardware/firmware designers, cross-functional teams within Dell Technologies, and suppliers to ensure FPGA designs meet a range of requirements, including schedule, feature set, functionality, and quality, as well as compliance with industry standards.
