Radar FPGA Design Engineer

This permanent Radar FPGA Design Engineer position sits in North London, paying £65,000 to £75,000 annually. The successful applicant operates at technical leadership level, unpacking requirements, coaching junior engineers and conducting design reviews while remaining hands-on to deliver working FPGA architecture suited to client environments. Candidates need hands-on VHDL experience at Senior or Principal level, covering multiple FPGA architectures, digital signal processing and high-speed design.

Satellite communications exposure is valued; radar background is preferred. Duties span electronic design of advanced FPGAs, from requirements capture and preliminary specification through testing and system integration. The engineer must absorb, specify and champion high-level requirements, appreciating application needs throughout delivery. FPGA Design Engineer with DSP ideally radar system design experience maximising multiple FPGA£££s.

The ideal candidate will be at technical leadership level willing to unpack requirements, coach juniors, conduct design reviews and be hands on where needed to deliver working FPGA architecture that is easily implemented to a client environment. Requirements Hands on VHDL based FPGA Design experience to Senior or ideally Principal level. Multiple FPGA architecture. Digital Signal Processing, high speed, satellite communications, ideally radar experience.

Able to absorb, specify and champion high level requirements taking the time to appreciate and understand the application needs. Responsibilities Electronic design of advanced FPGAs, from requirements, preliminary specification, test, system certification to verified design implemented and running on target hardware. Firmware VHDL simulation, test bench design, implementation verification and debug using test equipment oscilloscopes, spectrum analysers, signal generators, etc.

FPGA and VHDL Design Reviews. Masters, Bachelors or PhD in relevant area from a good university.
