Senior Software Engineer

Job Description

Accountabilities

• Lead the architecture, design, development, simulation, verification, implementation, and maintenance of complex programmable hardware solutions utilizing FPGA, CPLD, and related technologies.
• Collaborate with product managers, architects, systems engineers, software engineers, RAMS, verification, and manufacturing teams to understand requirements and translate them into technical specifications, architectures, and programmable hardware designs.
• Develop robust, efficient, and maintainable programmable hardware solutions using VHDL or Verilog following established engineering standards and best practices.
• Create and maintain high-quality technical documentation including architecture specifications, detailed design descriptions, interface definitions, verification plans, and traceability artifacts.
• Develop simulation environments, testbenches, and automated verification frameworks to validate functionality, performance, timing, and safety requirements.
• Perform functional, timing, integration, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), and regression testing to ensure compliance with system and product requirements.
• Conduct design reviews and provide constructive technical feedback to ensure design quality, maintainability, reusability, and compliance with applicable standards.
• Troubleshoot, debug, and resolve complex programmable hardware and system integration issues identified during development, validation, manufacturing, or field operation.
• Support prototype bring-up, board-level integration, laboratory testing, production release, and manufacturing support activities.
• Lead programmable hardware obsolescence mitigation activities, including component replacement analysis, device migration, redesign, impact assessments, and qualification testing.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of development processes, verification methodologies, reusable IP libraries, automation tools, and engineering best practices.
• Mentor and guide junior engineers while fostering a culture of technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous learning.
