As a Firmware/FPGA Design Engineer in Leidos, you will be an integral part of a team designing FPGA based solutions for space-based products. This role offers a unique opportunity to directly impact and contribute to Leidos' current/future space-based sensor projects using your FPGA expertise, the opportunity to design and develop unique FPGA design solutions for various cutting edge hardware platforms, boards, and FPGAs. The FPGA/Firmware design engineer will work with a multi-disciplined design team (electrical engineers, systems engineers, scientists, etc) to design, develop, simulate, and integrate challenging and one-of-a kind FPGA designs and space-based sensor systems.

    We are looking to advance your FPGA techniques to develop advanced board development FPGA technologies/techniques. In addition, the FPGA/Firmware design engineer will have the opportunity to collectively design, develop and decompose customer specifications. Candidates will have a strong background in FPGA algorithms and their implementation in MATLAB and FPGAs in support of a fast paced, multi-disciplinary design team. This role will also support the integration, testing, and verification of the final products.

    Primary Responsibilities

    The FPGA/Firmware design engineer's primary job functions include architecting, designing, implementing, and testing firmware solutions targeting unique high-speed FPGAs and their supporting circuitry. Additional skills to assist design teams with circuit and PCBA design and analysis, embedded processor/microcontroller or SoC designs, and technical trade studies.

    • Analyze, design, and implement HDL test benches in hardware description languages, HDL (VHDL, Verilog), for code validation and validation against models.
    • Analyze schematic diagrams for either custom or commercial-off-the shelf (COTS) electronic hardware involving high-speed digital and/or analog circuitry in associated FPGA-centric systems.
    • Generate and maintain engineering drawings and configuration management policies for FPGA project hierarchy.
    • Conduct experimental tests on latest FPGA and SoC evaluation boards, evaluate results, and then develop specifications for selecting next-generation components for deliverable systems.
    • Work on problems of diverse scope, determining methods and procedures to be used on new assignments, and providing feedback and recommendations to other technical personnel.'
    • Develop project test plans and test procedures, provide test planning support, and assist in the execution of both lab testing and field testing.
    • Develop and maintain requirements documents, functional specification documents, interface control documents, etc
