FPGA / Digital Electronics Engineer
Requirements
Requires a degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field with experience in FPGA/ASIC design and verification using Verilog. Knowledge of RF systems, embedded software, and Digital Signal Processing is highly desired.
Job Description
Overview
We are looking for an experienced FPGA and electronics design engineer who wants to help develop some of the world’s most advanced wireless communication systems.
Our company has a rich history in satellite, cellular and private network communications, and we are expanding our capabilities to include innovative new communications systems in the fields of Low Earth Orbit Satellites and High-Altitude Platform Systems. We want you to be part of this journey.
What we can offer
You’re likely to have far more variety in your work here than in your current role: Cambridge Consultants have a wide range of clients across wireless, telecoms, audio, and semiconductor – from blue chips to start-ups. Some are looking to optimise their existing technologies, while others come with a vision to develop something entirely new and unexpected. You will be implementing advances in technology investigating novel technologies that could enable new products for our current and future clients.
You won’t be working alone to reach these goals. We have a friendly and supportive culture and a passion for solving technical challenges.
The role
You will be part of the Digital Systems Group. Our work focusses on FPGA, ASIC, and high-performance board-level electronics design. Examples of our projects are:
The world’s largest commercial airborne antenna
The world’s lowest power voice detection system
Communications system for a swarm of warehouse robots
Satellite phone handsets
Our work ranges from high volume consumer applications to aerospace and satellite communications. Working on leading-edge technology, you will have the opportunity to further develop your skills in digital electronics, PCB and FPGA design.
The Digital Systems Group works closely with other disciplines to create cutting-edge technology. Project team sizes tend to be small, giving you lots of responsibility, and you will work with and learn from a team of highly skilled software, signal processing, AI, and RF engineers. As you gain experience you can, if you want, take on technical leadership roles on project teams and contribute to the future technology direction of the department.
Requirements
To be successful in this role, you should have the following skills and experience:
- An excellent degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related subject
- FPGA or ASIC design and verification, including Verilog.
- Electronic design experience
We are also interested in the following skills and experience:
- Technical leadership experience
- Knowledge of radio frequency systems
- Embedded software and scripting
- Understanding of Digital Signal Processing and its applications in RF
- A passion for understanding and developing new technologies
- Tools:
- GitLab
- Altium (PCB)
- Hyperlynx (SI)
- Doors (Next)
- VHDL, UVM
- C(++), Tcl, Python
