Current jobs related to Principal Firmware Engineer - Lower Wraxall - Morson Talent

We are seeking an experienced FPGA Design Engineer to join our Electronics team at Morson Talent. As a key member of our team, you will be responsible for supporting the delivery of bespoke electronics for integration into complex systems, with a significant focus on high-bandwidth telemetry systems.

• Translate sub-system requirements into firmware specifications.
• Investigate preliminary architectures and estimates from initial concepts and specifications.
• Formalize detailed designs using programmable logic specifications.
• Carry out detailed implementation of RTL, constrained place and route through timing closure.
• Derive verification strategies and schedules to address firmware requirements.
• Develop test cases and procedures to verify that a design meets its specifications.
• Design and utilize both unit-level and BFM-style verification test-benches to exercise RTL.
• Produce documentation to fully support the design.

This is an excellent opportunity for a dynamic FPGA Design Engineer who wants to improve and challenge their technical capabilities to develop cutting-edge technologies for a world-leading organization.

• Lead internal firmware design reviews throughout the development lifecycle.
• Support system architecture discussions where firmware is a key component of the system.
• Experience of digital design techniques and targeting programmable logic devices.
• Experience of a Hardware Description Language, preferably VHDL.
• Experience of IP block design through to complete programmable logic device delivery.
• Experience in the use of HDL simulation tools, e.g., ModelSim, Active-HDL, etc.
• Experience in programmable logic verification techniques and self-checking test-benches.
• Experience in the use of silicon vendor tools, such as Vivado, QuartusPrime, Libero SoC, etc.
• Experience in programmable logic device constraints for physical and temporal definitions.

• Providing technical leadership, working collaboratively alongside engineering disciplines.
• Programmable logic verification methodologies, such as OSVVM, UVM, etc.
• Automation techniques, e.g., scripting languages to drive development tools, such as Tcl, Python, etc.
• Managing designs utilizing multiple clock domains with appropriate clock domain crossing techniques.
• Static code analysis techniques, such as Linter tools.
• Digital signal processing in programmable logic devices.
• Producing high-quality behavioral and functional models.
• Matlab and Simulink.
• Programmable logic system-on-chip devices, such as the Xilinx Zynq.
