FPGA DSP Engineer

12+ years of professional experience in FPGA design and development

Strong expertise in RTL design using SystemVerilog and/or VHDL

Demonstrated experience with Xilinx FPGA devices and development tools (Vivado, Quartus, etc.)

Proven experience in digital signal processing implementation on FPGAs

Experience with FPGA verification methodologies and simulation tools

Strong understanding of timing closure, resource optimization, and FPGA design constraints

In this role, you will be the technical lead for FPGA development supporting our airborne radar products, establishing the foundation for FPGA design processes and best practices.

You will be responsible for translating algorithmic requirements into FPGA implementations, leading signal processing design efforts, and collaborating with our Costa Mesa team to ensure seamless integration across projects.

This will require expertise in FPGA design, signal processing, RTL development (SystemVerilog/VHDL), and Xilinx toolchains.

If you are a self-directed technical leader who thrives on establishing new capabilities and can take an algorithm document and independently drive it through to hardware implementation, then this role is for you.

Lead FPGA architecture, design, and verification efforts for airborne radar systems from concept through production

Translate signal processing algorithms into efficient, high-performance FPGA implementations on Xilinx SOC/FPGA platforms

The Battlespace Awareness (BA) team develops state-of-the-art radar systems, deployed to tackle the most significant security challenges of America and its allies. Working across hardware, software, and firmware; in both the RF and digital domains; the team delivers radar architectures that enable advanced surveillance, reconnaissance, and targeting in the contemporary and future battlespace. The Radar team is responsible for all aspects of radar system development; from concepts and architectures through to fielding and sustainment. In this role, you will work closely with an interdisciplinary technical team to define radar architectures, design solutions, build prototypes, perform testing, and mature the prototypes into products.
