Role Description
Description
Create high-performance FPGA solutions to support next-generation modem systems from LEO satellites. This is a unique opportunity to define and implement a state-of-the-art wireless communication system with a focus on an ultra-reliable low-latency, high-throughput physical layer (PHY). The FPGA Design Engineer will work closely with systems teams to define, develop, and release FPGA-based signal processing and modem solutions using latest generation hardware and modern design methodologies.
Key job responsibilities
In this role, you will design, implement, and support a wireless modem on a ARM/FPGA system-on-chip platform. Key responsibilities include:
• End-to-End RTL Development: Create and release RTL code through the full development lifecycle: system architecture definition, RTL design, physical implementation, timing closure, and simulation validation.
• System Integration: Collaborate with Digital Communications and RF system architects to imple...
