Electrical Engineer – FPGA Design
Position Summary
This onsite role supports FPGA design and verification for Raytheon digital products. The engineer will develop production-quality FPGA solutions from early concept through integration, test, and release.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and verify VHDL FPGA designs for Xilinx, Altera, and Microsemi devices
- Support high-speed serial, RF/EO DSP, controls, data links, embedded processing, and processor interfaces
- Translate system-level requirements into FPGA requirements, architectures, interfaces, and CONOPS
- Perform partitioning, coding, simulation, synthesis, place-and-route, and timing closure
- Verify designs using directed and constrained-random testing with functional and code coverage
- Create requirements, verification plans, user guides, and configuration-controlled design documentation
- Support technical reviews, integration, troubleshooting, and production releases
Required Qualifications
- FPGA development or verification experience
- VHDL design experience
- Experience with simulation, synthesis, place-and-route, and FPGA verification
- Experience with directed and/or constrained-random test methodologies
- Experience working with systems engineers and circuit card designers
- Ability to support projects to schedule, budget, and technical requirements
Preferred Qualifications
- Xilinx, Altera, and/or Microsemi FPGA experience
- RF, DSP, EO, high-speed serial, data link, or embedded processing experience
- Experience with coverage-driven verification
- Experience with FPGA requirements, configuration management, and controlled releases
- Aerospace, defense, or complex digital hardware experience
What Success Looks Like
- Delivers reliable, production-ready FPGA releases
- Converts system requirements into clear FPGA architectures and implementations
- Closes verification, coverage, timing, and integration issues efficiently
- Supports designs through test, technical review, and production release
