What is an FPGA ASIC engineer?

FPGA ASIC Engineers are specialized professionals who design, develop, and test digital circuits using Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) and Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). They work on hardware description languages like VHDL or Verilog to create complex integrated circuits for various applications, such as telecommunications, automotive systems, and consumer electronics. Their work involves simulation, verification, and optimization to ensure these circuits meet performance and power requirements.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an FPGA ASIC engineer?

To thrive as an FPGA/ASIC Engineer, you need a strong background in digital design, circuit theory, and proficiency with hardware description languages like VHDL or Verilog, typically supported by a degree in electrical or computer engineering. Familiarity with industry-standard EDA tools such as Synopsys, Cadence, or Xilinx Vivado, and knowledge of verification methodologies are critical, along with relevant certifications being beneficial. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective teamwork and communication skills help you excel in collaborative and complex project environments. These technical and soft skills ensure the development of robust, efficient, and innovative hardware solutions that meet industry standards and project requirements.

What are some typical challenges FPGA ASIC engineers face when transitioning from FPGA prototyping to ASIC implementation?

FPGA ASIC Engineers often encounter challenges when moving designs from FPGA prototypes to ASIC implementation, such as differences in timing closure, resource availability, and toolchains. FPGAs allow for more flexibility and quick iterations, while ASICs require careful optimization for power, area, and performance, often with longer verification cycles. Understanding synthesis constraints, managing clock domains, and ensuring design portability are crucial to avoid costly redesigns. Close collaboration with verification, physical design, and software teams is essential to address issues early in the development process.

What is the difference between Fpga Asic Engineer vs ASIC Design Engineer?

AspectFpga Asic EngineerASIC Design Engineer
CredentialsBachelor's/Master's in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering; FPGA/ASIC certificationsBachelor's/Master's in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering; ASIC design certifications
Work EnvironmentDesign and implement FPGA and ASIC solutions, often in hardware labs or design officesDesign and verify ASIC chips, typically in semiconductor or electronics companies
Industry UsageElectronics, telecommunications, aerospace, defenseConsumer electronics, automotive, telecommunications, semiconductor manufacturing

Both roles involve digital hardware design, but FPGA Asic Engineers focus on FPGA prototyping and flexible hardware solutions, while ASIC Design Engineers work on designing permanent silicon chips. The skills and certifications overlap, but their applications differ based on project needs and product lifecycle stages.

Job description

ASIC/FPGA Design and Verification Engineer - (Lead, Senior, or Principal)

Company:

The Boeing Company

Boeing Space, Intelligence & Weapons Systems has an exciting opportunity for multiple ASIC/FPGA Design or Verification Engineers (Lead, Senior, or Principal) to join us as part of our Boeing Electronic Products team at the heart of Boeing's products; ASICs and FPGAs in Albuquerque, NM.

From complex digitally beamformed phased arrays for constellation satellite programs to computing and networking equipment for commercial airplanes, the Boeing Electronic Products group develops ASICs and FPGAs that are at the heart of Boeing's products.

We leverage leading-edge technology and work with world-class partners to provide some of the most complex SoCs in the world. We develop robust, high-performance custom processors using the latest ARM IP to enable high-integrity, low SWAP-C flight computers. And we're applying the latest digital IC design processes with industry-best tools to enable applications that cut across every domain at Boeing.

Our diverse development portfolio provides opportunities to learn with exposure to the breadth of the Boeing product line - approximately half our design work is within the Space & Launch business unit, and half is from other parts of Boeing (AvionX; Missiles & Weapons; Strike, Surveillance and Mobility; and Autonomous Systems).

As an ASIC/FPGA Engineer on the Boeing Electronic Products team you will develop state-of-the-art digital ICs/SoCs to support the most critical programs across the enterprise. This is a unique time where we're hiring design and verification engineers at every level as we're only limited by our bandwidth for new projects. We collaborate with other electronics groups across the company and around the world and support ASIC/FPGA design and verification for electronics that we build in El Segundo or for units designed at other sites.

Within the LEOS team, you will be working with high-performance laser gimbal control systems. Responsibilities encompass the design and development of FPGA designs and their embedded software. You'll work with cross-functional teams, including hardware and software engineers, to define/refine system requirements, specifications, and ensure seamless software-hardware compatibility.

Specific responsibilities include:

- Conduct unit-level testing, verification, and validation of embedded software and firmware, utilizing debugging tools like oscilloscopes and logic analyzers to identify and resolve issues.

- Create and maintain technical documentation, including requirements documents, design specifications, test plans, and interface control documents.

- Support the integration of software and hardware components, from initial hardware bring-up to final system validation.

- Analyze and enhance the efficiency, stability, scalability, and performance of system resources, often within the constraints of low power or memory.

Position Responsibilities:

  • Lead FPGA/ASIC designs, including multi-FPGA/ASIC programs and teams with design and verification engineers, and manage team execution to meet program milestones

  • Collaborate with customers, system engineers, and hardware engineers to drive requirements capture and architect digital logic functions to meet mission/customer needs

  • Explore trade-space of potential ASIC/FPGA technologies and determine the optimal parts, weighing Schedule, Cost, Risk, Area, Power (SCRAP) vs. performance

  • Implement FPGA/ASIC with latest design practices and tools from block-level micro-architecture, through HDL coding, and physical design realization (through gate-level netlists for ASIC designs)

  • Integrate DSP IP from Boeing's algorithm team and third-party IP as needed

  • Perform static timing analysis, LEC, CDC, linting, and other necessary checks to ensure the design is completed on schedule

  • Develop Functional Coverage Models and perform Code Coverage to verify designs in simulation

  • Create self-checking and reusable test benches from scratch, applying Object Oriented Programming concepts such as Inheritance and Polymorphism, and leverage UVM to create drivers, monitors, predictors, and scoreboards

  • Drive FPGA-based prototyping and validation depending on program and system requirements and complexity

  • Validate design through hardware integration test with special test equipment, test-beds, and higher-level systems as needed

  • Train and mentor less senior engineers across the department and help build effective project teams
