Within the Digital Products Department, you will be a part of providing a key role within the Missiles and Defense Engineering organization by providing the electronics for the weapon system products. We engage at the outset of the weapon system development and follow our designs through deployment. Our team helps mold the requirements and bring concepts to life. Our products are deployed all over the world, reach the exoatmospheric environments and into space. The Digital Products Department is responsible for the architecture, design and documentation of deliverable firmware and FPGA embedded processing at RTX. We offer competitive salaries and benefits, including profit sharing and a comprehensive relocation package. Learn more about our requirements and apply today!
Job Description:
You will develop FPGA designs in VHDL for all major vendors and device families including: Xilinx, Microsemi (Actel), Intel (Altera) andLattice designs are implemented using VHDL for the following applications: Radiation-Hard and Radiation-Tolerant, Radio Frequency (RF) and Electro-Optical (EO) DSP, controls, data links, and embedded processing. Designers work with circuit card designers and systems engineers to develop requirements, architect new parts, partition and perform code development, simulation, place and route. Designs are verified against requirements using both directed test and constrained random methodologies. Design support is expected from requirements definition through integration and test. Design documentation and configuration management are required.
NOTE: This position can be either a Sr Electrical Engineer II (G09) or Principal Electrical Engineer (G10) based on the candidates qualifications as they relate to the skills, experience and responsibility requirements for the position.
Responsibilities to Anticipate:
Drive projects and execute to program schedules on time and budget
Lead small teams and mentor junior engineers
Demonstrate self-motivation, with little supervision required
Design and deliver production quality FPGA releases from initial proof of concept up to production
Work cooperatively with systems, hardware, software engineers, and program management to ensure product success
Demonstrate the ability to architect FPGA-based systems to determine parts, interfaces, and Concept of Operations (CONOPS)
Translate system level requirements into FPGA requirements
Design and code in VHDL for reliability and maintainability
Verify designs utilizing self-checking techniques with directed and constrained random tests, while tracking functional and code coverage
Create complete documentation including requirements, verification plan, and users guides
Support internal and external technical reviews
Qualifications You Must Have:
The ability to obtain and maintain a US security clearance prior to the start date. U.S. Citizenship is required as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.
Bachelor of Science degree in Computer or Electrical Engineering
A minimum of six (6) years of experience with digital design and VHDL coding.
Must have experience with 6 or more of the following areas:
Experience in FPGA design for radiation-hard or radiation-tolerant designs
Experience with FPGA vendors and device families suitable for radiation-hard and/or radiation-tolerant designs and appropriate tool flows
FPGA design techniques to reduce or eliminate Single Event Effects (SEEs) i.e.
Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR) techniques through custom FPGA Register Transfer Level (RTL) and/or synthesis directives
Safe hardware design practices specific to FPGAs, including safe encoded Finite State Machines (FSMs)
