FPGA Engineer – Drive Innovation in Spaceborne Digital Systems!

Camarillo, CA | Onsite

Opportunity Summary

We are seeking an FPGA Engineer to join a dynamic engineering team building advanced electronics for next-generation satellite and defense applications. In this role, you will develop and verify complex digital designs, working from concept through to lab validation and delivery. This position is well-suited for an engineer who thrives in a fast-paced environment, takes ownership of their work, and collaborates closely with cross-disciplinary teams. This is an opportunity to contribute to high-visibility programs where your designs will directly impact mission success in some of the most demanding operating environments. You will be at the forefront of integrating cutting-edge digital logic with RF, embedded systems, and signal processing technologies.

About Us

We are a California-based technology company delivering state-of-the-art RF and digital subsystems for aerospace and defense platforms. Our engineers participate in the complete lifecycle of product development, design, qualification, testing, and delivery, providing a unique opportunity to see ideas evolve into flight-ready hardware. With strong commercial and government momentum, our portfolio spans diverse projects that are shaping the future of satellite communications and defense electronics.

Job Duties

  • Design, implement, synthesize, and verify digital logic designs in FPGA devices.
  • Collaborate with DSP engineers to translate mathematical signal processing models into optimized VHDL implementations.
  • Determine when to integrate third-party IP cores versus developing functions internally.
  • Write and maintain VHDL code for key functions including signal processing, embedded processor interfaces, network connectivity, and clock management.
  • Manage and maintain source code within version control systems.
  • Partner with embedded software developers to define interfaces between programmable logic and processor cores.
  • Develop simulation environments to validate correctness of VHDL implementations, including bit-accurate signal processing verification.
  • Perform bench-level testing by synthesizing designs, loading bitstreams, and assisting with system-level validation of FPGA hardware.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
  • 3+ years of relevant professional experience.
  • Proficiency in digital logic design, simulation, and synthesis using VHDL.
  • Hands-on experience with AMD / Xilinx FPGA devices and development tools, including Vivado.
  • Strong understanding of high-sample-rate communication or signal processing systems implemented in FPGA hardware.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Windows OS and Excel.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Strong analytical mindset with proven problem-solving abilities.
  • Preferred Experience

  • Familiarity with revision control systems such as Git or Mercurial.
  • Knowledge of digital signal processing concepts, sampling theory, and spectral analysis.
  • Experience with MATLAB for modeling, simulation, or algorithm validation.
  • Exposure to mixed hardware-software environments and FPGA / embedded system integration.
  • Why Join Us

  • Be part of a growing team shaping the next generation of space and defense technology.
  • Full project ownership from design through lab and system-level integration.
  • Exposure to diverse projects at the intersection of RF, DSP, and digital design.
  • Collaborative and fast-moving engineering culture.
  • Opportunity for career development in a high-impact environment.
  • Comprehensive benefits including PTO, medical, dental, and vision coverage.
  • Retirement plan participation.
  • Compensation Details
