What are the responsibilities and job description for the Field-Programmable Gate Arrays Engineer position at ConsultNet Technology Services and Solutions?
C / FPGA Developer
El Segundo area, CA
6 month contract
NO 3rd PARTY C2C PLEASE
Immediate hire for Senior FPGA Firmware Engineer with expertise in digital signal processing, coherent combining of digital signals, high-bandwidth networking, and VITA 49. In this role, you will design, develop, and optimize FPGA-based solutions using Xilinx High-Level Synthesis (HLS) using C . Develop coherent combining and beamforming modules using C and Xilinx HLS, ensuring precise phase alignment across multiple channels. Requirements capturing, design definition & implementation of VHDL detailed designs. Implement VITA 49-compliant data packetization for high-speed IF or RF data distribution. Design and fine-tune DSP blocks (e.g., FFT, filtering, NCO, cross-correlation) to meet stringent real-time and resource utilization requirements. Work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure signal integrity and minimize latency in large-scale, multi-channel systems. Use Vivado (or Vitis) for synthesis, simulation, timing closure, and debug. Create testbenches in C /System Verilog/Python to validate functional correctness and phase coherence across all channels.
Requirements:
- 5 years of relevant experience in FPGA design and development
- Experience with Xilinx UltraScale MPSoC
- Knowledge of High-Level Synthesis (HLS)
- Solid understanding of C/embedded C programming
- Proficiency in VHDL/Verilog and FPGA design methodologies
- Experience with Vivado Design Suite and Xilinx SDK
- Proficiency in FPGA development flows (Vivado, ModelSim, or similar) and lab debugging (ILAs, scopes).
- Familiarity with embedded systems and real-time operating systems (RTOS)
- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
- Experience with digital signal processing (DSP)
- Knowledge of hardware-software co-design
- Strong knowledge of Linux commands and shell scripting
- Ability to work in a team environment and collaborate with cross-functional teams
- PHD strongly preferred or Masters degree in related discipline
Bonus Skills:
- Knowledge of Software-Defined Radio (SDR) is a plus
- Experience with Xilinx RFSoC is a plus
Salary : $70 - $85
