Job Description

Posting Description

FIELD PROGRAMMABLE GATE ARRAYS (FPGA)/DIGITAL DESIGN ENGINEER , Haystack Observatory , to develop advanced radio-astronomy and radar data acquisition and signal-processing systems along with remote sensor systems. Will engage with scientists to translate high-level requirements into working hardware and firmware designs, including end-to-end efforts to design systems involving high-speed signal processing. Projects include digital back-ends for very long baseline interferometry (VLBI), advanced phased-array radar hardware, highly customized software radios, spectral-line processors, and low-power embedded developed sensors. This will include efforts to develop new astronomical systems to support science measurements from a 37-m radio telescope. Responsibilities include FPGA design and development of digital receivers, filters, and spectrometers, with data rates approaching terabits per second (Tb/s); translating concepts into working hardware and using the resulting systems in the field; helping write requirements and validation efforts for subsystems; contributing to project cost and time planning efforts; and other duties as assigned.

Job Requirements

REQUIRED : M.S. in electrical engineering or related field; two years' hands-on experience in system and FPGA signal-processing design using VHDL, Verilog, and Xilinx design tools (especially for Xilinx Virtex series); knowledge of digital signal processing techniques and algorithms; comprehensive knowledge of digital design, including signal-processing architectures; knowledge of HDL development using C-to-gates techniques and CASPER tools; experience using Vivado, Vitis, and HLS for graphical- and scripting-based implementations; and familiarity with using MATLAB Simulink to develop and test FPGA signal-processing designs. PREFERRED : experience with Altera chips and design flows; experience designing printed circuit boards (PCB) using FPGA hardware operating at multi-gigabits per second (Gb/s) data rates; digital design and PCB fabrication knowledge; and experience with C/C++, Python, and MATLAB programming in a Linux environment. Job #24383

The initial expectation for this position is on-site presence five days per week with the possibility of a future hybrid schedule.

Occasional travel is required.
