We are on our way to achieving many industry firsts. This demands an ambitious team that thrives on challenges, takes ownership, and collaborates deeply. EOI Space is looking for an Sr FPGA Engineer with deep expertise in controls, communications systems, and embedded systems.  


What you will do: 

This role will contribute to the design, development, and deployment of FPGA solutions in various satellite subsystems. This role will work across the program lifecycle, from early design of subsystems to final verification and delivery to higher levels of assembly and test within the satellite. The ideal candidate will have a strong technical background as well as the ability to collaborate and thrive within a cross-functional, fast-paced environment. Your work will directly contribute to delivering high-quality Earth imagery from space. 



 

Responsibilities: 

  • Design and implement FPGA-based solutions for aerospace applications, with a focus on control systems, communication protocols, power systems, and embedded system design 

  • Develop VHDL/Verilog code and optimize it for resource utilization, performance, and reliability within the constraints of aerospace systems 

  • Collaborate closely with hardware and software engineering teams to define FPGA requirements and ensure system integration 

  • Develop and test FPGA firmware, including simulation, synthesis, and implementation, ensuring compliance with safety-critical and reliability standards 

  • Perform debugging and troubleshooting of complex FPGA designs using appropriate debugging tools and methodologies 

  • Work with cross-functional teams to define, document, and validate system specifications and requirements 

  • Ensure that all development work adheres to industry standards and regulatory guidelines (e.g., DO-254, DO-178) 

  • Participate in system-level design reviews, design verification, and acceptance testing 

  • Mentor junior FPGA engineers, providing technical leadership and guidance to the team 

  • Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives and best practices for FPGA design and development processes 

  • Provide expertise in embedded systems design and communication protocols for aerospace applications 


Required Qualifications: 

  • Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field; Master’s degree is preferred 

  • Minimum of 10 years of experience in FPGA design and development, with a focus on aerospace, control systems, communication systems, and embedded systems; direct experience with satellite subsystems is preferred  

  • Proficiency in VHDL and/or Verilog for FPGA development 

  • Extensive experience with FPGA development tools (e.g., Microchip Libero, Xilinx Vivado, Altera Quartus, ModelSim, etc.) 

  • Strong knowledge of aerospace system design, including embedded control systems and communication protocols (e.g., MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429, SpaceWire) 

  • Experience with FPGA-based system integration in safety-critical environments (e.g., DO-254, DO-178) 

  • Familiarity with digital signal processing (DSP) techniques and high-speed interfaces (e.g., PCIe, Gigabit Ethernet) 

  • Expertise in debugging, simulation, and verification of FPGA designs 

  • Strong knowledge of embedded system architectures and microcontrollers 

  • Proven track record of developing high-reliability systems for aerospace, defense, or similar industries 

  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to present complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders 

  • Ability to work independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team in a fast-paced, dynamic environment 


Compensation: 

The salary range for this role is $145,000 - $195,000 per year, depending on previous experience. Pay ranges are determined by role, level, location, and alignment with market data. Individual pay will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: interviews and an assessment of several factors that are unique to each candidate, job-related skills, relevant education and experience, certifications, abilities of the candidate and internal equity.
