Position Overview
Legion Technical Solutions (LTS) is seeking an experienced Principal FPGA Engineer to support advanced aerospace and defense technology programs in Tucson, Arizona.
This position offers the opportunity to develop and deliver sophisticated FPGA-based solutions supporting mission-critical systems, including radar, RF signal processing, electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) applications, embedded processing, and high-speed digital interfaces.
The ideal candidate will bring strong hands-on VHDL design experience, FPGA architecture and verification expertise, and a demonstrated ability to deliver production-quality FPGA solutions from initial concept through system integration and deployment.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, simulate, verify, and implement complex FPGA solutions using VHDL.
- Architect FPGA-based systems, including device selection, interface definition, and system-level design considerations.
- Translate system requirements into detailed FPGA design and verification requirements.
- Develop FPGA solutions for radar, RF/EO signal processing, high-speed interfaces, embedded processors, and control applications.
- Perform synthesis, place-and-route, timing analysis, and hardware integration.
- Develop self-checking verification environments using directed and constrained-random testing techniques.
- Support FPGA integration, debugging, troubleshooting, and system-level testing.
- Deliver production-quality FPGA releases from proof of concept through final implementation.
- Collaborate with systems engineers, circuit card designers, software engineers, and verification teams.
- Prepare technical documentation, including requirements, verification plans, design specifications, and user guides.
- Participate in technical design reviews and support program schedules and engineering milestones.
Required Qualifications
-
Minimum 8 years of relevant engineering experience, including experience in at least one of the following:
- Digital design and VHDL coding.
- FPGA development using Xilinx or Microsemi devices and associated development tools.
