Job description

FPGA Engineer - P3 Location: Tucson, AZ Job ID: #72743 Duration: 12 months contract Pay Range: $70-82 - W2 hourly ACTIVE SECRET CLEARANCE REQUIRED TO START Job Description: Project Overview The Effector Digital Products department is seeking an Electrical Engineer with FPGA development or verification experience to join our team. We are looking for candidates willing to collaborate, innovate, and team with our engineers to generate and utilize today's cutting edge technology to design and verify FPGAs that implement missile guidance, video and digital signal processing. Our technology base includes high speed digital electronics, configurable logic, and homogeneous / heterogeneous multiprocessor designs. Position Overview In this role you will develop FPGA designs for all major vendors and device families including: Xilinx, Altera, and Microsemi. Designs are implemented using VHDL for the following applications: gigabit serial interfaces, Radio Frequency (RF) and Electro Optical (EO) DSP, controls, data links, embedded processing and processor interfaces. Designers work with circuit card designers and systems engineers to develop requirements, architect new parts, collaborative modeling of algorithms, partition and perform code development, simulation, and place and route. Designs are verified against requirements using both directed test and constrained random methodologies. Design support is expected from requirements definition through integration and test. Design documentation and configuration management are required. What does success look like for this role: Work independently with minimal oversight. Follow standard department development processes. Required and Desired Qualifications Core Technical Skills (Non negotiables) Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering (will consider degrees in Computer Engineering and Electrical Engineering Technology.
