Sr. Digital Hardware Engineer

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering.
• 5 years of relevant experience digital circuit design (Circuits, Memory Sections, Serial Interfaces in a prototype / build environment
• DRAM,JTAG, I2C
• Design and Transmission line knowledge of Pin Electronics
• Experience Managing PCB layout to ensure signal integrity
• Proficiency in CAD tools such as OrCAD or others.
• Experience with Digital sub-system’s design.
• Familiarity with large FPGA design.

Responsibilities:

• Responsible for designing the digital circuits on the module. This includes the FPGAs with their configuration and clock circuits.
• Design the memory sections. There will be DRAM attached to the FPGAs that will need to be designed in.
• Design the PCIe interface between the module’s receiving connector to the FPGA
• Design several serial interfaces such as JTAG, I2C, etc… from the FPGAs to other components on board.
• Work with the Analog Designer to ensure all digital components are powered properly including voltage levels, loading, grounding and noise management.
• Design the Pin Electronics circuits. These are off - the-shelf IC’s but require transmission line knowledge to ensure proper signal delivery.
• Design all the interconnects in and out of the module via existing connectors.
• Manage the board PCB layout to ensure signal integrity goals are met
• Responsible for turning on the first prototype and ensuring the design works and meets the requirements.
