This is an unique chance to contribute to the future of secure global navigation systems, working in a dynamic, international and innovative environment.
Key Responsibilities:
The VHDL Designer Engineer will:
- Design, develop, and optimize digital architecture using VHDL for FPGA platforms (e.G., Xilinx, Intel, Microchip);
- Perform simulation, debugging, and verification of digital designs using industry-standard tools;
- Collaborate with system, hardware, and software engineering teams to define requirements and ensure seamless integration;
- Prepare technical documentation, including design specifications, test procedures, and
reports;
- Support reviews, audits, and qualification activities according to ECSS, DO-254, or equivalent standards;
- Contribute to continuous improvement of design processes, methodologies, and best practices.
What do you need:
- Master's degree in Electronic Engineering ;

implementation, verification and validation of FPGA devices ;
- Proven experience in programming in VHDL language and in the use of Xilinx Vivado tools, scripting in TCL language;
- Good knowledge of theory and design of digital electronic circuits and Digital Signal
Processing;
- Good knowledge of Matlab and/or Octave for co-simulation of algorithms implemented in FPGA knowledge;
- Eligibility forNational Security Clearance;
- Advanced knowledge of written and spoken English .
Desired knowledge and skills:
- Experience in Cores development for Software Defined Radio applications;
- Memory-mapped /DMA core development experience for Xilinx Zynq;
- Experience in developing and debugging high-speed interfaces, for example JESD204,
PCIe, LVDS;
- Experience in developing low-level optimized cores, based on specific components of Xilinx FPGAs (DSP48E, I / O SerDes, Transceivers);
- Experience in in C ++ low-level programming of drivers and test applications of FPGA cores on Linux and bare-metal;
- Experience in defining pinout and PCB layout requirements of FPGA and SoC based circuits;
- Competence (even minimal) in the use of laboratory equipment (oscilloscope, logic analyzer) in troubleshooting activities;
- Desired knowledge of C and/or Python.
