Job Details

Role Summary:
In this role, you ll be tasked with assessing and improving Xilinx-based FPGA emulation of the ASIC. You will review the current FPGA build environment, design constraints, and build/timing/utilization reports, identify improvements, and work with the Design team to implement updates that enable complete, accurate, functional, and stable builds on FPGA hardware.

What You ll Be Doing:
Review current FPGA build environment, design constraints and implementation, and build/timing/utilization reports
Update design constraints (XDC) to match ASIC design constraints (SDC), including clock frequency scaling as needed to accommodate FPGA limitations
Identify FPGA build environment improvements
Ensure the FPGA design follows industry-standard best practices (clock and reset generation, bidirectional buffer usage, etc.)
Assess viability of current FPGA hardware for the targeted RTL design
Ensure the FPGA can build, meet timing, and pass on-board testing
Collaborate with the RTL Design team, document work, and attend recurring status update meetings
Use Git version control software daily

You ll Need These Qualifications:
Master s or Bachelor s degree in Electrical Engineering or similar field
Experience setting up, constraining, optimizing, and closing timing on high-utilization designs
Experience with Xilinx and Vivado

Desired Qualifications:
Experience with Git version control software
Experience with Jira project workflow software
