Senior Fpga Engineer, Intelligence Systems

Anduril Anduril · Defense · Reston, VA · AFS : Intelligence Systems Engineering

This role is for a Senior FPGA Engineer focused on designing, testing, and implementing FPGA designs on Xilinx SoC/FPGA platforms for defense technology applications. The responsibilities include integrating third-party IP, participating in the full design lifecycle, implementing various signal types, and ensuring designs meet safety and performance standards. The role requires a Bachelor's degree in a related engineering field, 8+ years of experience in FPGA design, proficiency in VHDL/Verilog, and experience with Xilinx SoCs and Vivado. A U.S. Secret security clearance is required.

What you'd actually do

  1. Integrate third-party vendors IP, as necessary.
  2. Participate in entire design life cycle: from requirements and concept, through design and hand on testing/board bring up.
  3. Implement a variety of signal types such as high speed comms (ethernet, serial), signal processing (analog, digital).
  4. Ensure designs meet all relevant safety and performance standards, with traceability back to top-level system requirements, as necessary.
  5. Investigate and resolve bugs found during hand on testing (at HDL level and system level).
