Job Description
Role Summary: In this role, you ll be tasked with assessing and improving Xilinx-based FPGA emulation of the ASIC. You will review the current FPGA build environment, design constraints, and build/timing/utilization reports, identify improvements, and work with the Design team to implement updates that enable complete, accurate, functional, and stable builds on FPGA hardware.
What You ll Be Doing: - Review current FPGA build environment, design constraints and implementation, and build/timing/utilization reports
- Update design constraints (XDC) to match ASIC design constraints (SDC), including clock frequency scaling as needed to accommodate FPGA limitations
- Identify FPGA build environment improvements
- Ensure the FPGA design follows industry-standard best practices (clock and reset generation, bidirectional buffer usage, etc.)
- Assess viability of current FPGA hardware for the targeted RTL design
- Ensure the FPGA can build, meet timing, and pass on-board testing
- Collaborate with the RTL Design team, document work, and attend recurring status update meetings
- Use Git version control software daily
You ll Need These Qualifications: - Master s or Bachelor s degree in Electrical Engineering or similar field
- Experience setting up, constraining, optimizing, and closing timing on high-utilization designs
- Experience with Xilinx and Vivado
Desired Qualifications: - Experience with Git version control software
- Experience with Jira project workflow software
