Job
Description
We are looking for an FPGA / Embedded-Systems Engineer to join Arm s Solution Engineering FPGA team on a permanent basis working at the forefront of Arm based embedded design. Join our dynamic FPGA Prototyping team, a key part of Arms Solutions Engineering group! We are a dedicated group of engineers providing a robust platform to build and test software on Arms brand-new subsystems and System-on-Chips (SoCs). Our mission is to accelerate the development process by offering a versatile and high-performance prototyping environment that enables seamless software integration and validation. These solutions target a wide range of market segments including mobile, server, IoT, automotive, and more. you'll be part of a project team working collaboratively to create an FPGA prototype for enablement and validation, working with verification and software engineers. you'll have responsibilities estimating and owning tasks, delivering against a plan and have a strong focus on engineering efficiency and quality. The role will involve building a detailed technical understanding of incoming Arm IP RTL designs and making the relevant design changes of this ASIC RTL. The role includes RTL creation and modification along with implementation constraints with high-quality, clear, accurate technical documentation. The successful candidate will be responsible for delivery of designs using techniques such as gated clock conversion and synthesizable models to build accurate representations of real-world systems. Responsibilities: Modifying RTL from large complex systems to target a dedicated FPGA prototyping platform Working collaboratively to deliver to a structured plan Mentoring of junior engineers. Liaise and collaborate with development teams, where required, to understand requirements and guide design decisions, ensuring these are implemented and where not possible/feasible providing mitigations and alternatives. Translating technical requirements into estimated and sized packages of work that are direct inputs in forming a resourced project plan. Taking ownership, for your tasks, tracking to the project plan, identifying, and handling risks and reporting status Required Skills and Experience : Solid FPGA Engineer with strong technical skills are important for this role! Design automation is essential when constructing efficient design and delivery flows, scripting skills in Python and TCL would be advantageous. Detailed knowledge of the FPGA design flow from RTL design, simulation, synthesis, place & route, constraints, and timing closure Strong RTL skills in Verilog / System Verilog or VHDL. Knowledge and expertise in debugging sophisticated designs in both simulation and hardware. Excellent communications skills, written and spoken English; ability to write coherent documentation. Nice To Have Skills and Experience : Demonstrate an understanding of ASIC/SoC prototyping in FPGA. A creative and structured approach to problem-solving. Working with the latest Xilinx UltraScale+ devices and tools. Knowledge/Experience of implementation of PCIe/CXL and DDR memory sub-systems. Programming languages such as: assembly language (ideally Arm assembler), higher-level (eg C), object-orientated (eg C++) Use of a UNIX environment and shell programming Scripting skills in Python, Tcl, etc Experience and knowledge of Arm IP and the AMBA standard
