Job description

Annapolis, MD (On-site)
We are the leader in COTS FPGA-based high-performance computing. As the DSP Application Engineer Co-op, you'll have the opportunity to work on a wide-ranging set of exciting customer and internal applications, implementing cutting-edge algorithms using industry-leading FPGA products with analog and digital acquisition/transmission technologies.
You will design, develop, and test a wide range of applications leveraging our patented CoreFire FPGA Design Suite and targeting our industry-leading COTS FPGA computing products. Your responsibilities will often span from application conception through application deployment, including working with customers to enumerate and understand requirements, architecting a robust system based on requirements, designing and implementing customer algorithms using our CoreFire FPGA Design Suite and C/Java/Matlab, testing implementations and systems using COTS FPGA computing products, and aiding with integration of deployed systems.
Enjoy the benefits of working for a small privately-held company with on-site hardware and software design, as well as on-site manufacturing and test. The close coupling of all aspects of design and production under one roof allows us to create products and systems at a rapid pace while maintaining the highest possible quality. The opportunity to interact with other departments daily provides a first-rate opportunity to further develop your career as you diversify your experiences.
Responsibilities
  • Architect FPGA-based parallel processing computing systems using AMS Products
  • Program FPGAs for real-time DSP functions utilizing Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) front-ends, Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) back-ends, and High-Speed-Serial (HSS) IO
  • May be involved in working with high-performance Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) using C / C++ / Java and graphics libraries
  • Design for FPGAs using VHDL or CoreFire Next Design Suite
  • Develop and implement Digital Signal Processing (DSP), communications, imaging, and other algorithms
  • Interact with customers regarding application development and application support tasks

Requirements
  • Currently pursuing a bachelor's or master's degree in Computer Engineering or related field
  • Knowledge of digital design practices and methodology
  • Knowledge of or experience with Xilinx and Altera FPGAs and Design Tools
  • Experience with Matlab / Octave
  • Experience with C/C++/Java, with experience in graphics
  • Experience with VHDL or Verilog
  • Knowledge of or experience with DSP, processing data from ADCs, generating data to DACs
  • U.S. Citizenship
  • Availability to work two consecutive terms (Summer/Fall or Spring/Summer)

In compliance with local laws regarding pay transparency, the hourly rate for this role is $24/hr to $31/hr; however, Annapolis Micro Systems considers several factors when extending an offer, including but not limited to, the role and associated responsibilities, a candidate's work experience, education/training, and key skills.
