Job Title: FPGA EngineerJob Description

The FPGA Engineer will design and develop software-defined radio (SDR) communication payloads for advanced space missions, including deep-space, lunar, and Mars communication systems. This role focuses on creating, implementing, and maintaining FPGA designs using Verilog, SystemVerilog, or VHDL for space-based platforms, with a strong emphasis on digital signal processing and robust verification.

Responsibilities

Design, implement, and maintain FPGA-based solutions for software-defined radio (SDR) communication payloads used in deep-space, lunar, and Mars missions.
Develop FPGA architectures and modules using Verilog, SystemVerilog, or VHDL for space systems and related applications.
Design and integrate digital signal processing (DSP) functions, including filtering, modulation and demodulation, channelization, and rate conversion.
Perform simulation and functional verification of FPGA designs using industry-standard tools such as QuestaSim and Vivado Simulator.
Conduct validation activities to ensure FPGA designs meet performance, reliability, and quality requirements for space flight and defense industry applications.
Create and maintain clear technical documentation for FPGA designs, interfaces, and verification results.
Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to integrate FPGA solutions into broader communication payload and space system architectures.
Contribute to ongoing improvements in design methodologies, verification practices, and tool usage to enhance development efficiency and product reliability.

Essential Skills

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related field.
10+ years of experience in FPGA design and development.

Eligibility to work on programs that require United States permanent residency.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Experience designing FPGA-based software-defined radio (SDR) systems for communication payloads.
Knowledge of digital signal processing techniques, including filtering, modulation/demodulation, channelization, and rate conversion.
Familiarity with the challenges and reliability requirements of space systems and mission-critical hardware.
Ability to produce thorough technical documentation and design reports.
Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail in high-reliability design environments.
Collaborative mindset with the ability to work effectively within a small, highly skilled engineering team.
Motivation to contribute to hardware development for multiple space flight programs and cutting-edge missions.

Work Environment
