Arlington, Virginia, United States Amazon Full time
About the Role

We are seeking an experienced FPGA Development Engineer to join our team at Amazon Web Services (AWS). As a key member of our Utility Computing (UC) organization, you will play a critical role in developing and integrating scalable FPGA systems in the AWS technology ecosystem.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop custom RTL and integrate with third-party libraries to build end-to-end 100G+ solutions.
  • Collaborate with design and system engineers to perform trade-offs and architect new solutions for customers.
  • Own the interface between software and hardware by developing drivers and providing software examples.
  • Participate in design meetings to plan development and review peer designs.
  • Help identify new opportunities and new technologies to improve the customer experience and add features.
A Day in the Life

You will work on a cross-functional team of hardware and software developers, writing programmable logic and embedded software to interact with custom hardware. You will debug RTL in simulation, synthesize and implement ensuring it meets timing and performance requirements. You will help deploy RTL onto hardware targets and help debug issues that come along in RTL, hardware, or software. You will provide subject matter expertise in architectural discussions and strategic planning meetings.
