FPGA Lead Engineer

Job description

• Lead FPGA development activities across functional prototyping, emulation, performance evaluation, and database generation flows.
• Work closely with architecture, design, verification, software, firmware, and performance teams to understand system requirements and define FPGA implementation strategy.
• Drive FPGA functional flow, including RTL integration, FPGA partitioning, synthesis, place-and-route, timing constraints, timing closure, bitstream generation, bring-up, and debug.
• Drive FPGA performance flow to support in-house performance evaluation, workload execution, data collection, profiling, and performance database generation.
• Design, implement, integrate, and optimize FPGA logic using Verilog/SystemVerilog/VHDL.
• Develop and maintain FPGA prototypes and emulation platforms for system validation, software enablement, firmware development, and hardware/software debug.
• Support performance analysis by enabling representative workloads, collecting runtime metrics, identifying bottlenecks, and collaborating with architecture/design teams on improvement opportunities.
• Define and improve FPGA methodology, automation, build flows, regression infrastructure, and debug processes for both functional and performance use cases.
• Support and integrate interfaces such as PCIe, DDR, AXI, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, UART, and other standard protocols.
• Provide technical leadership, mentor engineers, coordinate cross-functional execution, and drive issue resolution across multi-site teams. #LI-LL1
