Job Description:
Job description:
The FPGA Division offers a broad portfolio of low and mid-range density FPGAs that lead the industry in their low power consumption, reliability, and security capabilities.
Our devices are unique in their use of non-volatile, instant-on technology that enables our FPGAs to deliver 30 to 50 percent lower power than competing FPGAs, immunity to radiation, and unique security features.
Our FPGAs, SoC FPGAs, and Radiation Tolerant FPGAs meet high-bandwidth connectivity and high-data throughput needs in applications such as Hybrid and Electric Vehicles, Communications IoT Infrastructure, Industrial Controls and Automation, Spacecraft, Commercial Aircraft, and Defense Equipment.
This position is for a Senior Firmware Engineer (grade level I) who has 5+ years of experience.
You will have successful experience of architecting and implementing firmware on several projects throughout the full development life cycle.
What will you do in this position
As a Senior Firmware Engineer, you will be part of a small team working with a team of highly motivated Architects and Senior Designers to develop the specification and implementation of control firmware for our FPGAs. This firmware is at the heart of our FPGAs, managing device configuration & startup, providing run-time services, and implementing leading-edge security features.
You will also work with the logic verification team to guide test strategies and debug firmware problems.
Additionally, you will support Product Engineering teams with customized firmware for silicon validation and failure analysis.
What’s attractive about this opportunity.
Most features of our FPGAs are reliant on the device firmware and this position will then expose you to virtually all aspects of how our FPGAs are designed and how they operate.
Because the firmware and hardware are so tightly coupled there will be lots of opportunities for working with the hardware.
You will also get to work with advanced cryptographic accelerators and on security protocols utilizing them.
There is also the opportunity to be involved in performing software/hardware co-simulations and FPGA emulation for firmware debug purposes.
