Job Details:Job Description:

About Altera

Altera is a global leader in programmable logic solutions, delivering cutting-edge FPGA, SoC FPGA, and software technologies that enable innovation across data centers, communications, automotive, aerospace & defense, and industrial markets. Our engineers tackle some of the most complex design challenges in the semiconductor industry, working at advanced technology nodes to build high-performance, power-efficient solutions used by customers worldwide.

About The Role

Altera is seeking a Reliability & Radiation Architecture Engineer to join the Silicon Architecture organization and contribute to the development of reliability and radiation tolerance strategies for next-generation FPGA platforms.

Within the Silicon Architecture group, a dedicated team focuses on device reliability, radiation effects, and system resilience. This role contributes to the analysis and development of architectural mechanisms that enable robust operation of FPGA platforms in demanding environments, including mission-critical and high-reliability applications.

The position involves studying radiation effects in programmable logic devices, analyzing test data, and evaluating mitigation approaches across programmable fabric, configuration memory, embedded memory blocks, and platform subsystems.

You will collaborate closely with silicon architecture, circuit design, validation, software, and firmware teams to ensure reliability considerations are incorporated into device architecture and platform capabilities.

Responsibilities

  • Analyze radiation effects in FPGA devices including SEU, SET, SEL, and TID

  • Evaluate architectural mitigation techniques including configuration scrubbing, ECC protection, redundancy, and fault detection and recovery mechanisms

  • Analyze radiation test data from heavy-ion, proton, and neutron experiments and derive reliability metrics

  • Develop reliability models including cross-section analysis, FIT estimation, and mission reliability projections

  • Study susceptibility of FPGA subsystems such as programmable logic fabric, configuration memory, embedded memories, and platform infrastructure

  • Collaborate with silicon architecture, circuit design, validation, software, and firmware teams to incorporate reliability considerations into device and platform architecture

  • Support execution of radiation characterization campaigns

Salary Range

The pay range below is for Bay Area California only. Actual salary may vary based ona number offactors including job location, job-related knowledge, skills, experiences,trainings, etc. We also offer incentive opportunities that reward employees based on individual and company performance.

$113,700 - $164,000 USD

Qualifications:

Minimum Qualifications:

Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related fieldand 5+ years of experience in one or more of the following areas:

  • Experience with FPGA architecture, digital design, or reliability analysis.

  • Understanding of radiation effects in semiconductor devices such as SEU, SET, SEL, and TID.

  • Knowledge of FPGA architectures including programmable logic fabrics, configuration memory, and embedded memories.

  • Familiarity with fault tolerance techniques such as ECC, redundancy, and scrubbing.

  • Experience analyzing experimental data or performing reliability modeling.

  • Experience working with hardware design methodologies including RTL design, simulation, and verification.

  • Ability to collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field

  • Experience with radiation testing methodologies including heavy-ion, proton, or neutron testing

  • Experience developing or analyzing high-reliability FPGA designs

  • Experience implementing fault-tolerant techniques such as Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR) in FPGA systems

  • Experience with aerospace or mission-critical FPGA applications

  • Experience modeling system-level reliability or architectural vulnerability
