Key Responsibilities:
  • Design and implement FPGA prototypes using RTL, partitioning the design and taking it through synthesis and place and route.
  • Improve the performance of the prototype, analyze timing, and generate bit streams.
  • Bring up the design on FPGA prototyping platforms and engage in problem-solving.
  • Release the prototype to customers and provide support when issues arise.
Requirements:
  • BS (or equivalent experience) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related fields with 7+ years of experience, or MS with 5+ years of proven experience in FPGA prototyping.
  • Good understanding of FPGA prototyping architecture, devices, flows, and tools.
  • Experience in backend flows of FPGA Prototyping, including synthesis, P&R, and timing closure, with emphasis on Synopsys Protocompiler or Synplify Premier and Xilinx Vivado.
  • Knowledge of Verilog, System Verilog, and digital design concepts.
  • Good debugging and problem-solving skills.
  • Hands-on experience with lab FPGA debug methodologies, tools (Identify or ChipScope), and lab debug equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers).
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Scripting knowledge (Perl/shell/Tcl) is desired.
  • Good documentation, communication, and interpersonal skills.
  • Experience in system/SOC/Full chip level verification desirable.
  • Prior experience with hardware emulation or prototyping (Synopsys HAPS, Zebu, Cadence Protium, Palladium, Mentor Veloce) of a high-performance processor or SOC is a plus.
