Complex PCB design; VHDL for Xilinx and Altera FPGA development
A challenging position, testing your skills in complex PCB design and ingenuity. With your experience of simulating and implementing signal algorithms in VHDL for a range of FPGAs, such as Xilinx and Altera, along with your talent for finding useful and effective solutions to demanding high-speed processing issues, this is an opportunity to grow your career with a trusted team of specialists.
Focussing on projects involving digital signal processing relating to radio communication systems and cyber security, as well as high-speed data processing, much of the work is related to UK defence research programmes. You would be working alongside driven engineers and scientists and would have the opportunity to take team leadership responsibilities. Excellent communication skills will also be expected as you will represent the company to their clients, updating stakeholders and ensuring their engagement throughout the progress.
Projects can cover a range of topics. Necessary skills and experience will include:
• Complex PCB design (OrCAD) using FPGAs, SoCs, high speed network interfaces and analogue/ RF signal filtering;
• Simulating and implementing signal, image, or data processing algorithms in VHDL for FPGAs;
• Designing tests for PCBs, including firmware and software, as well as developing Linux device drivers for hardware;
• Software development experience in embedded C and C++
• An impressive academic history including a first class degree backed by A* / A at A-Level will also be required.
Please note: as many of the projects are related to national security, only UK citizens able to achieve a high level of security clearance will be considered
Encouraging collaboration and speedy progress is important to our client, as are security precautions, so the team finds working onsite at their offices and labs the best solution for them, however some flexibility is available around their core hours of work (10am - 4pm).
A generous remuneration package is available to successful candidates and early responsibility and career development is anticipated.
