Job Description:

We are looking for a talented FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) architect and design lead with industry experience in advanced signal processing techniques and/or Electronic Warfare techniques including Electronic Support and Electronic Attack.  We design, develop, and test advanced electronic warfare and multi-function systems.  L3Harris development efforts include the whole lifecycle of designs from proposals, requirement definition, coding, simulation, synthesis, place and route, verification testing, and system support.  This position would focus on the FPGA architecture and leading multiple FPGA design teams in coding, simulation, synthesis, place and route, and verification testing aspects.  We are looking for an engineer who enjoys challenging work with a team of talented engineers and can work well both with an interdisciplinary team and as an individual contributor. Salt Lake City provides incredible year-round outdoor recreation options and cultural experiences, and L3Harris values your work/life balance so you can enjoy these opportunities.

Areas of expected technical experience or education include:

• Leading FPGA desing teams in the implementation and verification of complex designs in systems with multiple large FPGA devices.
• Expertise in simulation, synthesis, and placement software tools such as ModelSim, Synplicity, Xilinx Vivado / ISE and/or Altera Quartus development tool sets.
• Expertise in laboratory debug techniques using signal generators, digital oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, BERTS, and other complex measurement devices.
• Expertise with timing closure in large FPGAs.
• Experience implementing industry standard interfaces (e.g., 10/100/1000 Ethernet, SPI, UART, SDRAM, DDR3, JESD, PCIe, Ethernet).
• Experience implementing Electronic Support or Attack signal processing.
• Experience implementing complex Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms in FPGA devices.  Equivalent experience in ASIC devices is also applicable.

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s Degree and a minimum of 12 years of prior relevant experience. Graduate Degree and a minimum of 10 years of prior related experience. In lieu of a degree, minimum of 16 years of prior related experience

Preferred Additional Skills:

• Bachelor’s (Master’s preferred) degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering or Electrical Engineering.
• 12+ years FPGA design experience on Digital Signal Processing designs.
• Experience leading teams of technical employees and working in interdisciplinary teams.
• Expertise in either VHDL (preferred) or Verilog hardware development languages.
• Signal detection and identification
• Advanced signal processing techniques
• Arbitrary waveform generation
• Machine Learning
• FPGA Design using High-speed serial interfaces (3+ Gbps)
• Familiarity with code revision management tools such as Git/Clearcase.
• Familiarity with C/C++/C# and Matlab/Simulink.
