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
