Work statement is a non-managerial role, non-leadership role.

**** AvionX has an exciting opportunity UVM Advance Verification FPGA Contractor at Lead or Senior level to join us as part of our **** Digital Avionics team. This position will also be considered for conversion from contractor to **** direct after initial contract for those interested in converting. We are rapidly expanding our Digital Avionics development team consisting of engineers passionate in developing trusted, high assurance FPGA devices for advance Commercial and Military Avionics Systems. Selected candidates will have the opportunity to choose from one of our three **** AvionX on-site locations: Phoenix Arizona area (Mesa), Dallas Texas area (Plano), or St Louis Missouri area (Hazelwood).

We are seeking UVM Advance Verification contractors who are ambitious and will thrive in an advance technology development environment. You will help develop early adopter technology rapidly for insertion in our ruggedized and robust Avionics solutions. You will leverage your skills and capabilities in all areas of the FPGA verification lifecycle to include architecting UVM/UVMF test benches, develop test cases, generating FPGA verification artifacts, and leading or supporting FPGA milestone verification reviews.

The work we do enables the missions and needs of our military and commercial customers. Our team of engineers leverage leading-edge technology and work with world-class partners to develop solutions using some of the most advance SoCs in the world. We develop robust, high-performance custom digital processing technologies to enable high-integrity, low SWAP-C Avionics. We utilize the latest digital IC development processes with industry-best tools to produce the most trusted and cyber secure digital solutions for our Avionics customers.

Our focused Avionics center of excellence development group produces advance digital solutions for multiple manned and unmanned aircraft. As an Advance Verification FPGA Engineer on the **** AvionX team, you will verify state-of-the-art digital ICs/SoCs to support the most critical programs across the **** Commercial and Defense enterprise. We also collaborate with other electronics groups across the company and around the world.
