Lead FPGA Development Engineer Leader (m,f,d)

Role overview Develop and maintain FPGA firmware and associated electronic designs for control and protection systems used in high-voltage direct-current applications. The work spans requirements definition, design, testing, documentation, and support for both new commercial projects and legacy products, in collaboration with engineers across locations.

Responsibilities - Analyze system requirements and define functions to be implemented in hardware. - Develop FPGA designs using model-based methods and HDL, and enhance existing product features. - Design and debug analogue and digital hardware, including high-speed circuits and printed circuit boards. - Maintain legacy products through updates and improvements that extend their useful life. - Prepare functional and test specifications, including routine, type, and test-harness plans. - Contribute to design reviews and maintain design documentation and manufacturing data packs to established standards.

Requirements - Degree in electrical or electronic engineering, or equivalent experience. - Demonstrated experience with model-based design. - At least 10 years of FPGA design experience using VHDL or Verilog. - Strong understanding of electronic components and principles, with advanced hardware and FPGA debugging skills. - Experience with FPGA devices and design tools from vendors such as Altera, Microsemi, or Xilinx. - Experience designing hardware for real-time control, plus high-speed digital design and PCB layout skills. - Ability to work independently and with multidisciplinary engineering teams to resolve technical problems.

Nice to have - Familiarity with agile development, scripting in Perl or Python, version control, and issue tracking tools. - Knowledge of power electronics control systems or high-voltage direct-current technology. - Strong written and verbal communication and a collaborative, self-directed approach.

Benefits and work setup - Remote position; relocation assistance is not provided.
