FPGA Design Engineer - Apolis
Sunnyvale, CA 94089
About the Job
Title: FPGA Design Engineer
Location: Sunnyvale, CA
Duration: 12+ months
The client Reality Labs team is building products that make it easier for people to connect with the ones they love most. As a FPGA Design Engineer within the multidisciplinary client’s Prototyping Team, you will employ your expertise in problem solving and prototyping to accelerate product development across client’s hardware organization. You will collaborate with teams within Hardware Engineering, Research and Development, and Industrial Design. These projects cover a wide variety of technical challenges unique to client’s hardware portfolio, including Oculus, Portal, and beyond. The team is responsible for rapidly building and iterating polished high-fidelity prototypes and development platforms that bring new ideas to life by expressing design intent and user experience - using the best and most appropriate tools and techniques for the task. We are seeking a FPGA Design Engineer who has a passion for working across disciplines (EE, FW/SW) to turn early cutting edge concepts and technologies into reality. As an FPGA Design Engineer, you will be responsible for design of new concepts, technologies and product development.
You must be able to work with minimal guidance, demonstrate a high attention to detail, be partnership-oriented and possess strong problem-solving skills. You must be a self-starter, well-organized and have excellent communication skills. Our team is constantly growing and you will be relied upon to help define team direction and be motivated to improve the effectiveness of our tools and processes from each project to the next.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Partner with Design, Engineering and Research teams to identify and solve complex design and technological challenges
Designing, simulating, prototyping, debugging and testing of embedded systems which combine electronics, mechanics, optics and software with end-to-end ownership of product design throughout early product development
Collaborating in a team environment with cross-functional teams such system engineering, architecture, product design, NPI and research
Ability to execute multiple streams of work simultaneously and independently balance and prioritize project workload to ensure success against timeline constraints
RTL development and testing for FPGA targets/platforms to support rapid prototyping
Assist with algorithm analysis, verification and improvement
Direct contingent/contract design and test resources
Develop component and system level performance specifications
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
BS Electrical Engineering (EE), Computer Engineering (CE) or Computer Science (CS) or equivalent experience
8+ years of end-to-end FPGA design experience (RTL, Simulation, Implementation, Hands on bring-up and debug)
Experience with commercial HDL simulators (Modelsim/Questa)
Experience with Verilog and SystemVerilog
Experience with digital circuit design and various communications protocols such as I2C, UART, SPI, I2S, USB, MIPI, PCIe, etc.
Experience with board level testing (oscilloscope, logic analyzer)
Collaboration and communication skills
Demonstrated domain knowledge in compute & systems development, proven track record in building advanced technology & product development
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Experience with verification environments/methodologies
Experience with streaming video protocols (MIPI, AXI-Stream, etc.)
Experience with scripting in TCL and Python
Master’s degree in EE, CE or CS or equivalent experience
Experience leading a multidisciplinary product engineering team, with oversight into mechanical, electrical, and firmware workstreams and integration between disciplines
Understanding of client’s products and technologies
Experience with embedded devices
Experience with cameras and optical systems
