Calling all FPGA Design Engineers! - We have a fantastic opportunity to work on cutting edge surveillance projects.

Our Client designs and sells electronic-scanning ground radar systems for national border security, counter-drone, perimeter security, wide area surveillance and coastline security. Their radars have a reputation for performance and reliability, protecting lives and critical assets worldwide. They are able to develop and adapt designs quickly in response to user requirements. Based just south of Cambridge, they are easy to reach by car and only two minutes' walk from the nearest rail station.

The Role

Currently going through a major product update to extend the family of radars, they are introducing enhanced performance and new capabilities that includes updates to FPGAs and other programmable logic devices across the entire radar family.
You will be part of a small and highly skilled multidisciplinary engineering team with full responsibility for digital signal processing. This will include modelling, coding, verification, testing, and deployment of new FPGA designs for our latest advanced radar products.
Close teamwork and communication is essential to the design, development and delivery of their radar systems, and therefore they offer hybrid working to allow a mix of collaborative working and engineering focus.

Generate design documentation for communication and dissemination across the engineering team.

Qualifications, experience and skills

Engineering or other technical degree (or equivalent combination of experience and education).
Development experience using Xilinx design tools such as Vivado, targeted at Zynq MPSoC or similar.
Experience of implementing signal processing algorithms with high-speed I/O in FPGA.
Understanding of the design of high-speed digital circuits for real-time systems.
Experience of design verification by both simulation (SystemVerilog or similar) and hardware testing.
Experience of software design using C/C++, Python, or Rust.
Proficient using test equipment such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analysers, signal generators, etc.
Excellent interpersonal and written communication skills to allow efficient hybrid office/home collaborative working.

Additional desirable requirements

Knowledge of radar, sonar, or similar sensor systems.
Understanding of radar signal processing techniques.
Embedded Linux C/C++ development.
Familiarity with Yocto and/or Petalinux build systems.
Familiarity with Xilinx HLS.
