AZ852: RMS AP Bldg M East Hermans Road Building M02, Tucson, AZ, 85756 USA

Position Role Type:

Onsite

At Raytheon, you have the opportunity to try new things and make a bigger difference across a broader end-to-end solution, a richer technology and product set, an expanded range of disciplines, a growing global footprint and a more diverse team of colleagues and customers.

The Effector Digital Products (EDP) department develops electronics for our weapon system products. We engage at the outset of the weapon system development and follow our designs through deployment. Our products are deployed all over the world, from the ground to exoatmospheric environments and into space. We are responsible for the architecture, design, and documentation of deliverable FPGA embedded processing at Raytheon.

In this role you will lead development of FPGA designs for all major vendors and device families including: Xilinx, Altera, and Microsemi. Designs commonly support the following applications: gigabit serial interfaces, Radio Frequency (RF) and Electro-Optical (EO) DSP, controls, data links, embedded processing and processor interfaces. Designers collaborate with circuit card designers and systems engineers to develop requirements, architecture, modeling of algorithms, partitioning, code development, simulation, and place and route. Designs are verified against requirements using both directed test and constrained random methodologies. Design support is expected from requirements definition through production release. Design documentation and configuration management are required.

What You Will Do:

  • Design and deliver production quality FPGA releases from initial proof of concept up to production

  • Architect FPGA-based systems to determine parts, interfaces, and Concept of Operations (CONOPS) test system level requirements into FPGA requirements

  • Design and code in VHDL for reliability and maintainability

  • Verify designs utilizing self-checking techniques with directed and constrained random tests, while tracking functional and code coverage

  • Help drive projects and execute to program schedules on time and budget

  • Create complete documentation including requirements, verification plan, and user's guides

Qualifications You Must Have:

Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, preferred, or relevant STEM degree

A minimum of 5 years of experience to include at least three (3) of the following:

  • FPGA design (VHDL and/or Verilog coding) or FPGA verification (SystemVerilog coding)
  • Xilinx or Microsemi devices and flow tools
  • Delivering FPGA solutions to system level applications
  • Experience with integration and debug of FPGA devices

The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance prior to the start date is required. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.

An advanced degree in a related field may be substituted for two additional years of experience

Qualifications We Prefer:

FPGA design experience in one or more of the following areas:

  • Radar processing techniques

  • Image processing techniques for visual and infrared sensors

  • Embedded systems design using ARM, Microblaze, or Nios processors

  • Gigabit serial interfaces and multi-gigabit transceivers (MGTs)

  • Constrained random verification in UVM using System Verilog

  • Verification utilizing emulation platforms, such as Veloce

What We Offer:

O ur values drive our actions, behaviors, and performance with a vision for a safer, more connected world. At RTX we value: Trust, Respect, Accountability, Collaboration, and Innovation.
