Plextek · Saffron Walden, England ·
COMPANY VISION Plextek is a leading choice for employees and customers for exceptional engineering and strategic innovation to create better safer and more sustainable technologies and products. OUR VALUES AND BELIEFS Being a responsible business, we work with integrity and honesty.
We share success with our people and our communities. We embrace diversity in outlook and work as a team with colleagues, customers and suppliers to provide the best technical solution and professional service experience.
We empower each other, were adaptable, show initiative and deliver on our commitments together. THE ROLE We are looking for an experienced FPGA engineer with strong skills in HDL, the AMD Vivado toolchain, and associated simulation and test.
Experience of relevant open architecture standards such as OpenCPI, STICS or SOSA. We will also consider experience with other FPGA platforms. The successful candidate will play a key role in developing Plextek IP and delivering a wide range of client projects, predominantly focused on radar, communications and sensing applications.
As a result, a solid grounding in digital signal processing is a core requirement, with experience in RF systems considered a significant advantage. Working within a multidisciplinary consultancy team, you will help translate customer requirements into robust FPGA-based implementations, contributing across the full development lifecycle from concept and architecture through to validation and ongoing support.
Your day-to-day development work will likely be targeted at AMD (Xilinx) silicon, often Zynq SoC devices, and will involve close collaboration with hardware, software and systems engineers on technically demanding programmes.
Multidisciplinary experience is therefore highly valued, particularly where candidates are also comfortable working in the electronics and firmware domains. Alternatively, we are interested in candidates with a strong core skill set who are keen to broaden their experience.
As with all our engineers, adaptability and a willingness to learn are key attributes across all roles at Plextek. R...
