Contract Eda Engineer information

What are some common challenges faced by contract EDA engineers when working with multiple clients or projects simultaneously?

As a Contract EDA Engineer, managing the demands of multiple clients or projects can be a significant challenge. Each client may use different EDA tools, design methodologies, and have unique project requirements, requiring adaptability and strong organizational skills. Effective communication is crucial when collaborating with diverse teams, especially when working remotely or across time zones. Additionally, staying updated with the latest EDA software updates and industry trends is important to meet varying client expectations and deliver high-quality results on tight deadlines.

What is a Contract EDA Engineer?

A Contract EDA (Electronic Design Automation) Engineer is a professional who works on a temporary or project-based basis to develop, implement, or support EDA tools and workflows used in the design and verification of electronic circuits and systems. They typically collaborate with hardware design teams to automate processes, improve design efficiency, and troubleshoot tool-related issues. Contract EDA Engineers may be hired for specific projects, to address skill gaps, or to manage peak workloads, and their expertise is crucial in industries like semiconductor manufacturing and electronics design.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a contract EDA engineer?

To thrive as a Contract EDA Engineer, you need expertise in electronic design automation (EDA) tools, digital and analog circuit design, and a relevant engineering degree such as electrical or computer engineering. Familiarity with software like Cadence, Synopsys, Mentor Graphics, and scripting languages such as Python or TCL is typically required. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective communication help you collaborate with cross-functional teams and adapt to client-specific requirements. These abilities are essential for delivering high-quality, efficient design solutions and meeting project deadlines in a competitive, technology-driven industry.

Candidates for this position will contribute to the team by utilizing in-house software tools to reverse engineer hardware assets provided by the U.S. government. During the analysis, engineers will identify common hardware structures like embedded processors, DSPs, filters, transceivers, data links, and decoders and determine the operational parameters they were designed for. Candidates will be exposed to and learn about design techniques across a variety of domains such as cybersecurity, electronic warfare, encryption, radar, and satellite communications.

Job Responsibilities

  • Candidates for this position will be responsible for performing hardware analysis and reverse engineering of DoD assets.
  • Candidates will be expected to produce clear documentation explaining the components, capabilities, and features of asset systems.
  • The use of HII proprietary tools, FPGA vendor tools, and third-party EDA tools will be necessary to perform modeling, simulation, and analysis of targeted systems.
  • Effective collaboration with teammates to produce cohesive results and create improved processes is required.

Minimum Qualifications

2 years relevant experience with Bachelors in related field; 0 years experience with Masters in related field; or High School Diploma or equivalent and 6 years relevant experience.

  • Have an active DoD Top Secret/SCI with full scope polygraph at the time of consideration.
  • Have experience with Verilog, System Verilog, or VHDL.
  • Have experience with industry-standard EDA tools and processes (synthesis, P&R, simulation, etc.)?
  • Have the ability to learn new skills quickly

Preferred Requirements
? ? ?Have experience with debugging interfaces (JTAG, SWD, etc.)
? ? ?Have experience with signal protocol analysis (RS232, CAN, PCIe, Gigabit serial, etc.)
? ? ?Are proficient with ASIC, FPGA, or SOC design tools (Quartus, Vivado, ISE, etc.)
? ? ?Are proficient with EDA tools (Synopsis, Altium, Modelsim)
? ? ?Have experience with formal verification tools and methodologies (OneSpin 360, Questa, etc.)
? ? ?Have experience with modifying hardware to perform non-intended tasks
? ? ?Have experience bypassing encryption schemes (power glitching, side-channel attacks, etc.)
