Job Summary

Job Description

We are seeking an FPGA Engineer to design and implement FPGA-based applications and improve high-level synthesis and testing tools. The role involves using OCaml & Hardcaml for RTL design, testing, and integration, as well as working with Verilog and C. The engineer will work on the ground-up design of new FPGA applications, extend and refine internal tools. Collaboration, curiosity, and a willingness to learn are essential qualities for this position. The role requires building and testing hardware designs using vendor tools like Vivado or Quartus, and interest in networking within the context of FPGAs.
Must have:
  • Top-notch programmer with a love for technology
  • Comfortable with a software programming language
  • Experienced with Hardware Description Language (HDL)
  • Experienced with FPGA vendor tools (Vivado or Quartus)
  • Experience with building a working FPGA project
  • Intending to start full-time employment in 2025
  • Fluency in English is required.

Job Details

About the Position

We are looking to hire an Engineer with experience in both software and hardware design to help us build our FPGA-based applications. 

We're big believers in the ability of tools to make programming faster, more pleasant, and more reliable. We apply these same principles to our FPGA Engineering work, and we’re looking for people who are interested in using programming language technology to improve the process of designing, testing, and validating hardware designs. We use Hardcaml, an OCaml library for succinctly describing hardware in RTL. Hardcaml is tightly integrated into our development environment, so you’ll also gain lots of exposure to the libraries and tools that are foundational to our internal systems. No previous knowledge of Hardcaml is required.

In this role, you’ll work on the ground-up design and implementation of new FPGA applications, and help extend and refine the high-level synthesis and testing tools that we use internally. Your day-to-day work will predominantly involve OCaml & Hardcaml, for both RTL design and testing/integration, but you can also expect to work with some Verilog and C. While you don’t need to have worked with OCaml specifically, a good background in some typed functional language is a plus.

If you’d like to learn more, you can read about our interview process, meet some of our newest hires, or check out our OCaml All The Way Down talk and Programmable Hardware podcast episode.

About You

  • A top-notch programmer with a love for technology
  • Comfortable with a software programming language
  • Intellectually curious, collaborative, and eager to learn
  • Humble and unafraid to ask questions and admit mistakes
  • Experienced with a Hardware Description (or Construction) language (VHDL, Verilog, Chisel, Pymtl, or other), for both writing and testing hardware designs
  • Experienced working with FPGA vendor tools (Vivado or Quartus)
  • Experienced with building a working FPGA project through an academic, professional, or personal project
  • Interested in learning how to use FPGAs in the context of networking
  • Intending to start full-time employment in 2025
  • Fluency in Engish required
