Technical Lead - FPGA Design Engineer (Karnataka)

Role & responsibilities Job Summary: We seek a hands-on Technical FPGA Lead with 7-10 years of experience to architect and deliver high-speed FPGA designs. You'll lead a small team, drive micro-level architecture for performance-critical systems and ensure seamless integration of protocols like PCIe, MIPI, and 10G Ethernet. If you thrive on lab debugging and optimizing complex designs, this is your role. Preferred candidate profile Key Responsibilities:
- Define and document micro-level architectures for high-speed data paths, ensuring optimal resource utilization and low latency performance.
- Lead end-to-end FPGA design cycles, from RTL development to implementation and verification on Xilinx (Kintex/Versal) and Altera platforms.
- Execute rigorous Static Timing Analysis (STA) and resolve complex constraints. Analyze and mitigate Clock Domain Crossing (CDC) issues to ensure design robustness.
- Implement and validate protocols like PCIe, MIPI, DDR, USB and 10G Ethernet using RTL (Verilog/VHDL).
- design debugging with lab equipment like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, ILA, and SignalTap.
- Mentor junior engineers, conduct code reviews, and collaborate with cross-functional teams (Hardware and software) Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor's/Master's in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
- 7-10 years of hands-on experience with diverse FPGAs (Xilinx and Altera/Intel).
- Expert in RTL design, STA, and CDC; proven track record in high-speed design (>10Gbps).
- Deep experience with PCIe, MIPI protocols, and 10G Ethernet (At Least with one protocol).
- Proficiency using lab tools: oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, ILA/SignalTap.
- Strong leadership skills with experience managing small teams in agile environments.
- Familiarity with Vivado, Quartus, and scripting (TCL/Python) is a plus.
- Familiarity with Gigabit transceiver with NRZ and PAM4 is a plus
- Willingness to learn recent architectures and protocols as technology evolves. Additional Requirement
- Immediate joiners or candidates who can join within 30 days are preferred. Apply on Kit Job: kitjob.in/job/4mmmss
