Contract FPGA Engineer - Advert

Job Description Contract: 12-month contract likely extension Rate: Up to £80/hr (Inside IR35) Location: Southern England \n Hybrid: On-site 3 days/week \n The brief \n An FPGA Engineer is wanted for an aerospace project. You'll take designs from requirements to working silicon: architecture, VHDL, simulation, implementation and hardware bring-up. If you like owning the whole lifecycle and chasing bugs down to the waveform, this is for you. \n What you'll do \n \n Own the full FPGA lifecycle, from requirements and architecture through VHDL RTL, synthesis and place-and-route to on-target validation \n Build and run simulation testbenches in ModelSim/QuestaSim to prove designs before they hit hardware \n Debug in simulation and on real boards, isolating timing, CDC, logic and integration faults \n Write design documentation fit for high-assurance programmes \n Work with systems, hardware and software engineers to integrate FPGA functionality into the wider platform \n Contribute to design reviews and sharpen engineering process \n \n What you need \n \n VHDL: strong, production-grade RTL \n Vendor toolchains: Xilinx, Altera or Microsemi \n Full lifecycle FPGA design and development \n ModelSim / QuestaSim for simulation and verification \n \n FPGA debugging: hands-on, in sim and in hardware \n \n JBRP1_UKTJ
