Chicago

Our Client is looking for FPGA and Software Engineer to join trading firm. While the firm has been leveraging FPGA technology for a number of years, you will have the opportunity to build an FPGA application from scratch for an existing team. Theyre seeking a candidate that has a strong understanding of Hardware and Software interaction. This person will participate in the full development lifecycle, including system and block level testing, of low latency high throughput FPGA designs.

Responsibilities:

Facilitate software integration efforts by developing new APIs and optimizing low level code.

Architect and implement new FPGA applications (synthesis, place & route, static timing analysis, documentation) from the ground up

Propose creative solutions to overcome FPGA/hardware/software limitations

Liaise directly with software and other design teams

Requirements:

Strong capacity to quickly evaluate FPGA based project feasibility based on hardware limitation

Strong skills in RTL logic design (Verilog and System Verilog) and verification

Solid Hardware Engineering experience with a focus on digital design for FPGAs or ASICs.

C++ expertise required

Experience in FPGA design flow including synthesis, place & route, static timing analysis

Knowledge of UNIX operating systems and system performance concerns

Experience with multi-threaded programming and asynchronous frameworks

Experience with the design of system-on-chip (SOC) architectures, memory & processor subsystems, networking, and peripheral interconnect is required

In depth knowledge of the TCP/IP stack and on chip networking applications

Experience with functional verification utilizing high-level methodologies (e.g. System Verilog) is a plus.

Excellent research and data gathering skills

Familiarity with higher level scripting languages such as Python and applications for automating data collection and design validation

Strong system level debugging and data analysis skills

Bachelors degree or higher, Computer/Electrical Engineering or Computer Science with 3+ years of experience within the field
