FPGA Engineer Imaging

Reporting to the Manager of FPGA Imaging this Engineer will play a role in delivering best-in-class image / video processing solutions for our da Vinci systems (and other robotic platforms) as part of an excellent cross-functional team. The engineer in this position will work with the broader Vision and EE teams to architect implement and verify image sensor interfaces and image processing algorithms on FPGAs / FPGA SoCs deployed on the platform. This includes components in the entire processing chain photon-to-photon : from image sensor data acquisition to stereo (and mono) displays.

The ideal candidate will possess a background in FPGA-based video / image processing with exposure to typical image processing algorithms and image sensor interfaces implementation and evaluation with the trade-offs between visual quality performance and FPGA resource utilization in mind.

Responsibilities

• Implement designs using (System)Verilog and verify in simulation and on hardware
• Partner with crossfunctional experts to drive balanced tradeoffs across resources cost performance and practicality to deliver optimal video processing architectures.
• Collaborate on improvements to FPGA design and verification methodology; explore avenues to reduce development and verification time
• Investigate and evaluate new FPGA / FPGA-SoC platforms for low-latency video processing
