Telecommute Biomedical Design Engineer Jobs in Virginia

Description

The Electronic Warfare Division of Leidos is seeking a Hardware Design Engineer to support Circuit Board and FPGA Firmware Design Engineering work with a multi-disciplined design team (electrical engineers, systems engineers, scientists, etc) to design, develop, simulate, and integrate challenging digital designs and RF sensor systems based on given project requirements.  Candidate will have a strong background in high-speed digital design in support of a fast paced, multi-disciplinary design team. This role will also support integration, test, and verification in the final products. This position is expected to be part-time or full-time and could support telecommuting options depending on the candidate.

Primary Responsibilities:
•    Proficient in schematic design and BOM generation for higher-speed digital and mix-signal circuit card designs.
•    Analyze, design, simulate, and implement algorithms in hardware descriptor languages, HDL (VHDL, Verilog), based on customer requirements and/or model(s).
•    Collaborate with a multi-disciplined design team (electrical engineers, systems engineers and scientists) to design and integrate challenging FPGA designs and RF sensor systems.
•    Collaborate with a multi-disciplined design team to design and integrate DSP applications for latest System on a Chip (SoC) implementations such as AMD/Xilinx Zynq Ultrascale+, Intel Agilex, and AMD/Xilinx RFSoC.
•    Analyze, design, and implement HDL test benches in hardware description languages, HDL (VHDL, Verilog), for code validation and validation against models.
•    Perform design constraints generation and verification as well as evaluate synthesis and timing performance reports.
•    Analyze, design, simulate, and implement designs which interface to common signaling standards, typical IP such as SERDES, PLLS, etc. and/or protocols such PCIe, JESD204B/C, LVDS, etc.
•    Analyze schematic diagrams for either custom or commercial-off-the shelf (COTS) electronic hardware involving high-speed digital and/or analog circuitry in associated FPGA-centric systems. 
•    Develop and maintain requirements documents, functional specification documents, interface control documents, etc.
•    Develop project test plans and test procedures, provide test planning support, and assist in the execution of both lab testing and occasional field testing.
•    Conduct experimental tests on state-of-the-art FPGA and SoC evaluation boards, evaluate results, and then develop specifications for selecting next-generation components.
•    Work on problems of diverse scope, determining methods and procedures to be used on new assignments, and providing feedback and recommendations to other technical personnel.
•    Some travel and work at remote sites for limited time periods may be occasionally required.
