Lead Electronic Hardware Engineer

In This Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:

• Lead FPGA architecture definition, design, and implementation using VHDL/Verilog.
• Develop and optimize RTL code for high-speed, low-latency applications.
• Perform synthesis, place & route, timing analysis & timing closure, and resource optimization.
• Collaborate with the cross-functional teams including hardware, software, and system engineers.
• Conduct design reviews, documentation, and ensure compliance with industry standards.
• Integrate FPGA designs with embedded processors and peripheral interfaces (PCIe, Ethernet, DDR, etc.).
• Develop and execute verification and validation plans using simulation and hardware test benches.
• Efficiently use debug tools such as integrated logic analyzers (like ChipScope, Altera Logic Analyzer etc.) for the FPGA to identify timing issues, resolve problems.
• Interface with the Firmware team to drive FPGA-firmware interface requirement and architecture.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical leadership and innovation.
• Interface with vendors and customers for technical discussions and support.
