Job Title: Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) Engineer

We are seeking a highly skilled FPGA engineer to join our team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. As an FPGA engineer, you will be responsible for designing and developing advanced radio-astronomy and radar data acquisition and signal-processing systems.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Design and develop FPGA-based digital receivers, filters, and spectrometers with data rates approaching terabits per second (Tb/s)
  • Translate high-level requirements into working hardware and firmware designs, including end-to-end efforts to design systems involving high-speed signal processing
  • Collaborate with scientists to develop new astronomical systems to support science measurements from a 37-m radio telescope
  • Develop and implement digital signal processing techniques and algorithms using VHDL, Verilog, and Xilinx design tools
  • Contribute to project cost and time planning efforts
Requirements:
  • M.S. in electrical engineering or related field
  • Two years' hands-on experience in system and FPGA signal-processing design using VHDL, Verilog, and Xilinx design tools
  • Comprehensive knowledge of digital design, including signal-processing architectures
  • Knowledge of HDL development using C-to-gates techniques and CASPER tools
  • Experience using Vivado, Vitis, and HLS for graphical- and scripting-based implementations
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with Altera chips and design flows
  • Experience designing printed circuit boards (PCB) using FPGA hardware operating at multi-gigabits per second (Gb/s) data rates
  • Digital design and PCB fabrication knowledge
  • Experience with C/C++, Python, and MATLAB programming in a Linux environment

This is a full-time position with the possibility of a future hybrid schedule. Occasional travel is required. The initial expectation is on-site presence five days per week. Must be a U.S. citizen.
