Qualifications:
Bachelor's Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering (or equivalent) with a focus on Digital Design
7+ years of FPGA / PLD development experience preferably in aerospace, defense or medical product environments using VHDL or similar languages
Experience in architecture design and trade offs to define, partition and allocate requirements to a complex device
Knowledge and experience with DO-254 or similar guidelines for ensuring a safe and rigorous design process
Experience designing and implementing interfaces between digital devices and microcontrollers including communications and data busses, common protocols and error handling
Additional Considerations:
A background in embedded control systems, preferably in the aerospace and defense domain, including working knowledge of system interfaces and sensors such as RVDT/LVDT, BLDC motors, Servo Motors, temperature and pressure sensors and ARINC communications. The ability to model and simulate these aspects in a MatLab/Simulink type environment would be an asset.
Working knowledge of the ModelSim toolset
