FPGA Engineer

Join us at DGS and be part of a pioneering team Transforming the Wireless Economy
The exponential growth in wireless demand and 5G technologies requires greater bandwidth, lower latency, and higher reliability. To solve today’s spectrum challenges efficiently and effectively, service providers need real-time, persistent understanding of the spectral environment. DGS stands at the forefront of addressing today’s spectrum challenges with a pioneering and patented methodology. DGS takes a groundbreaking approach by extracting RF information directly from the physical layer which allows for a more real-time understanding of the spectral environment.
FPGA ENGINEER 
Join our dynamic team at DGS, a cutting-edge data solutions company, for wireless networks, where innovation meets excellence in the realm of Radio Frequency (RF) awareness and environmental monitoring technologies. We are seeking a qualified candidate for the role of FPGA Engineer who will be responsible for designing, implementing, and testing FPGA-based solutions for critical signal processing applications. You will work closely with hardware and software engineers to develop efficient and reliable FPGA designs that meet the project requirements. 
 
In this role, you will: 

• Design and implement FPGA-based solutions to efficiently meet the demanding requirements of modern RF sensing and network systems.  
• Develop FPGA- based solutions for real-time RF spectrum monitoring and analysis. Implementing spectrum capture, domain conversion, detection, and decoding algorithms on various FPGA hardware platforms to capture and analyze RF signals across diverse frequency bands. 

• Translate algorithms and signal processing techniques into FPGA designs, optimize algorithms for implementation on specific FPGA hardware with careful management of key factors such as resource utilization, timing constraints, and power consumption. 
• Develop communication protocols and APIs that allow software applications to control and configure FPGA-based RF processing chains for specific use cases. 
• Implement digital mixing, interpolation, decimation, and resampling algorithms to translate RF signals between different frequency bands and sample rates. 
• Design and work on FPGA-based SDR architectures that allow software-defined control of modulation schemes, channel bandwidths, and operating frequencies. 
• Collaboration and communicate with the hardware and software teams to integrate FPGA designs into larger system architectures. Ensure compatibility with other systems such as microprocessors, memory devices, sensors, etc. 
• Maintain thorough documentation of FPGA designs, including specifications, design constraints, test plans, and implementation details. Communicate project progress, issues, and recommendations to stakeholders through reports and presentations. 

 
Qualifications: 
- Bachelor’s degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field. 
- A master’s or PHD degree in electrical engineering  
- Proficiency in hardware description languages (Verilog, VHDL) and FPGA development tools (Xilinx Vivado, Intel Quartus, etc.). 
- Strong understanding of digital design fundamentals, including combinational and sequential logic, finite state machines, and synchronous/asynchronous design techniques. 
- Experience with FPGA synthesis, place-and-route, and timing analysis tools. 
- Familiarity with FPGA-based development boards and prototyping platforms. 
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to debug complex hardware/software issues. 
- Excellent communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively in a cross-functional environment. 
- Prior experience with high-speed digital interfaces, signal processing algorithms, or embedded systems development is a plus.
