They will also have experience with timing closure and utilizing Chipscope/Signal Tap, as well as working knowledge in common computer hardware interface and data protocols.
The successful candidate will work as part of a highly motivated team environment and will be collaborating with cross-functional project teams making up a larger program or internal research and development efforts. Our engineers are assigned to a manager of approximately 20 employees with similar skills.
This position can be located in Tewksbury, MA or Marlborough, MA.
Key Responsibilities:
• Own or contribute to the successful completion of FPGA-based designs, on time and on budget
• Work with a team to determine the technical approach or solution to meet system level requirements
• Lead small teams and mentor junior engineers
• Demonstrate self-motivation, with little supervision required
• Work cooperatively with systems, hardware, software engineers, and program management to ensure product success
• Architect FPGA-based systems to determine parts, interfaces, and Concept of Operations (CONOPS)
