Full Job Description

National Radio Astronomy Observatory

Title: FPGA System Architect - Electronics Engineer

Location: NRAO Central Development Lab, 1180 Boxwood Estate Rd, CHARLOTTESVILLE, Virginia, United States of America

Requisition Number: 209

Job Family: Electronics Engineer

Pay Type: Salary

Required Education: ENG

Position Description:

The National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) is a prestigious research and development organization that plays a vital role in the study of the universe. Associated Universities, Inc. (AUI) is a nonprofit organization that manages and operates the NRAO under a cooperative agreement with the National Science Foundation. The Observatory is a hub for technological and scientific collaboration, operating state-of-the-art radio telescope facilities for use by the international scientific community. The Observatory has been instrumental in the study of black holes, galaxies, and the early universe.

The Central Development Laboratory (CDL) at the NRAO is seeking an experienced FPGA System Architect (Electronics Engineer) to join its digital design team. The engineer will lead the technical execution, integration, and deployment of a digital signal processing system for a next-generation radio telescope synthesis array, guiding the system through implementation, design reviews, integration, and operational deployment while supporting requirements refinement as needed.

CDL's digital design team develops advanced digital signal processing systems that enable radio astronomy research, supporting scientific studies of galaxy formation, the origins of stars and planets, and black holes.

The selected candidate will lead the technical development and execution of FPGA-based systems, with an emphasis on high-throughput digital signal processing, including digitized receiver data acquisition, calibration processing, and frequency channelization. The role combines system-level technical ownership with hands-on FPGA development responsibilities, including RTL development and system integration activities as required.

Working within a small, centralized team, the engineer will collaborate across internal groups and provide technical leadership for systems shared with the international scientific community. The role requires strong time management, the ability to manage multiple concurrent efforts, effective cross-disciplinary communication, and the ability to balance system-level ownership with hands-on development responsibilities.

The location for this position will be based at the Central Development Laboratory in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Lead the architecture, design, integration, and deployment of the antenna-side FPGA-based digital signal processing system.
Define subsystem decomposition, interfaces, and data flow across FPGA processing elements, embedded software, timing and synchronization systems, digitizers, and external data transport systems
Lead subsystem design reviews and contribute to system-level design reviews
Document system architectures, interfaces, design decisions, and verification approaches

Work Environment

Work is mission driven, team oriented and typically performed in an office setting within a research or development environment.

Who You Are:

Education and Experience:

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
Eight years of experience developing complex FPGA-based digital signal processing systems
Experience leading the architecture, development, integration, and deployment of FPGA-based systems
Experience defining system architectures, subsystem interfaces, and data flows across FPGA processing, embedded software, and external system interfaces
Experience with timing and synchronization concepts for high-throughput FPGA systems

Skills and Competencies

Strong written and verbal communication skills with demonstrated ability to coordinate technical efforts across multiple teams
Strong leadership ability and
Attention to detail is critical

Additional Requirement

Observatory employees must be authorized to work in the United States. The Observatory presently cannot sponsor H-1B Visas for this position.
