Job description

Long Wall Company was created in 2024 to accelerate missile defense technology for the U.S. and our allies. We specialize in ballistic missile defense and are developing Cyclops, a low-cost, mass-producible interceptor. We also produce containerized launchers and offer low-cost targets for threat replication. The future of global security depends on defensive technology that redefines cost, magazine depth, and distribution to deter and defend against evolving threats. Join us.
 

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

Mission-Driven Problem Solvers - The problems in missile defense demand ingenuity. We want engineers who approach challenges with curiosity, embrace failure as a learning opportunity, and stay focused on delivering the best solution for the mission.

Total Ownership - We seek engineers who take full responsibility for delivering flight-ready work while recognizing that no one succeeds alone. The best engineers make their teammates better, knowing that complementary skills create force multiplication and drive mission success.


FPGA Design Engineer  DESCRIPTION 

As a Firmware/FPGA Engineer, you will lead the design, development, and integration of FPGA-based embedded systems at Long Wall to support our launch operations and test infrastructure. You will have the opportunity to be a key member of a small team of hardware, software, and systems engineers working to develop innovative high-performance data acquisition and processing solutions that enable the rapid deployment of Long Wall launch and test systems. This individual will be responsible for FPGA firmware development from concept to production, including custom IP core design, high-speed interface implementation, hardware/software integration, and test stand FPGA development, ensuring alignment with strategic business goals. This is a role that contributes to every mission and every flight we fly as we continue to reimagine the future of missile defense systems. 

RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Design, implement, and verify FPGA firmware for (Xilinx) AMD-based systems, including SoC and ACAP architectures
  • Debug and validate firmware through hardware-in-the-loop testing and system integration
  • Collaborate with hardware engineers to define FPGA I/O requirements and board-level interfaces
  • Collaborate with software engineers to design CPU driver interfaces for custom IP cores
  • Create and maintain technical documentation, including design specifications, timing reports, and test plans
  • Contribute to architecture decisions for FPGA/embedded systems and participate in design reviews. 
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
  • 5+ years of hands-on FPGA development experience with AMD/Xilinx platforms 
REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
  • Expert-level knowledge of Xilinx FPGA architectures and Zynq SoC platforms
  • Strong understanding of digital design principles, timing analysis, and clock domain crossing techniques
  • Experience with Xilinx Vivado design suite for synthesis, implementation, and debugging
  • Demonstrated ability to bring FPGA designs from concept through production
  • Extensive experience with troubleshooting designs and resolving integration issues.  
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills.
  • Proficiency in HDL languages (VHDL and/or Verilog/SystemVerilog)
  • Proven experience with Vivado and Vitis toolchains, including IP integration, timing constraints, and build automation
  • Experience developing custom IP cores with register interfaces, interrupt generation, and DMA engine integration
  • Understanding of high-speed serial interfaces (SerDes/SERDES) and multi-gigabit transceiver architectures
  • Strong knowledge of streaming video/data architectures, including buffering strategies, flow control, and memory management
  • Implementation of high-speed communication protocols: PCIe (Gen 1/2/3/4/5), 1G/10G/25G Ethernet MAC/PHY layers (SGMII, RGMII, UXSGMII)
  • Design and optimization of streaming DMA architectures and high-throughput data paths
  • Multi-clock domain design, including proper CDC (Clock Domain Crossing) techniques and metastability mitigation
  • Ability to collaborate with software engineers on hardware/software interfaces, including memory-mapped register design and interrupt architecture
  • Strong debugging skills using Vivado ILA, VIO, and hardware test equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers)
  • Proficiency with version control systems (Git) and CI/CD workflows for FPGA development 
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
  • Master's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or related field
  • Develop high-performance data paths and interfaces, including PCIe, Ethernet, and streaming DMA systems
  • Experience with Versal ACAP systems and Network-on-Chip (NoC) design requirements and profiling
  • Experience with Xilinx High-Level Synthesis (HLS) for algorithm acceleration
  • Experience with Versal AI Engine development and optimization
  • Knowledge of AXI/AXI-Stream protocols and custom IP core development
