Reading, United Kingdom ALL.SPACE Full time £150 - £200

At ALL.SPACE we are fortunate to produce stand‑alone phased‑array antennas. This means that we cover the entire electronics spectrum. We design and produce the electronics hardware (power, analogue, digital, and RF), as well as the firmware and software that runs on our hardware. FPGAs are crucial elements of our antennas, and our FPGA firmware designers undertake the whole of the development process: from negotiation of requirements and initial design architecture, through to formal validation and verification of the design. The work is extremely challenging but incredibly rewarding. You will work within a small team of firmware engineers who are experts in their field. Although the primary role is to develop firmware for deployment into an FPGA, you may also get the opportunity to write software for our products and test systems or use Matlab to generate and analyse test data or simulate DSP algorithms. One thing is for sure: you will be contributing to our unique and novel antennas within an enthusiastic and supportive team.Take the next step in your career now, scroll down to read the full role description and make your application.ResponsibilitiesDevelop FPGA firmware to industry standards, that implements signal processing functions, glue logic, and high-speed interfaces.Develop testbenches for FPGA firmware and perform the verification.Develop firmware for complex FPGAs, SoCs, and PLDs.Test firmware on system hardware.Support integration efforts as required.Develop and agree development plans with the team leader and work towards the plan to deliver firmware on time.Review firmware code developed by peers.Contribute towards miscellaneous firmware team activities.RequirementsEducationUniversity degree in Electrical, Communications, or related engineering discipline (first or upper‑second class)PhD would be a significant advantage.Soft skillsProactive "can-do" mentalityAbility to present information and communicate using well‑thought‑out responses; both verbal and writtenGood interpersonal skillsRequired Technical skillsRobust electronic engineering skillsBinary number arithmeticDigital logic design at Register Transfer Level (RTL)HDL programming (VHDL or Verilog)Following skills and experience are advantageousAt least two years' experience as a firmware developerFPGA firmware architecture designSignal processing theory of RF signals, ADC and DACDigital electronic designDigital signal processing (DSP) designExperience with Xilinx FPGAs (RFSoC, MPSoC, Ultrascale+, etc.)Experience with Xilinx design suite (Vivado, Vitis, Petalinux, xpwpeyx etc.)Use of bench equipment (e.g. spectrum analyser, oscilloscope, RF signal generator, network analyser)LinuxGitTCLC programmingMicrosoft Office SuitePlease noteDue to the work that needs to be carried out we are ideally looking for someone to be in the office at least 3 days a week.BenefitsExcellent compensation package inclusive of competitive salary, pension, and 25 days holiday in addition to the UK bank holidaysBonus and stock options packageCareer development training opportunities (in‑house and external)Hybrid workingCycle to Work and Employee Referral schemes24/7 access to discount platform across 900 retailers24/7 access to the Well‑being Centre and Employee Assistance HotlineFree access to a gym#J-18808-Ljbffr
