Senior FPGA Engineer

Job description

We are recruiting for a Senior FPGA Engineer to join a specialist engineering and R&D business developing advanced sensing and Edge-AI technology.

This is a hands-on role with genuine ownership of the FPGA architecture, working across high-speed data acquisition, SoC-FPGA integration, real-time DSP and future CNN acceleration.

The Role

You will work with modern SoC-FPGA platforms, including technology such as Xilinx Zynq UltraScale, taking ownership of areas including:

• VHDL / Verilog / SystemVerilog development
• ADC and LVDS data acquisition
• DMA and high-speed data movement
• AXI interfaces and PS/PL integration
• DDR memory and streaming pipelines
• Clocking, timing closure and CDC
• FPGA DSP including filters, FFT and cross-correlation
• Hardware bring-up and debugging
• Embedded Linux / PetaLinux integration
• Longer-term FPGA-based CNN acceleration

The role will evolve from building a reliable high-speed acquisition platform into implementing real-time DSP and reconstruction directly within FPGA fabric.

What We’re Looking For

You will be an experienced FPGA Engineer with strong hands-on RTL skills and experience with:

• SoC-FPGA platforms
• High-speed data acquisition
• AXI and DMA
• Timing closure and clock-domain crossing
• FPGA-based DSP
• Embedded software integration

Experience with Zynq UltraScale+, PetaLinux, PYNQ, Python/Jupyter, imaging, instrumentation or AI acceleration would be advantageous.
