  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
  • 5+ years of professional experience in FPGA design and development
  • Deep expertise in VHDL and/or Verilog and FPGA synthesis flows
  • Experience with Microsemi/Microchip, Xilinx/AMD, or Intel/Altera FPGA families and associated toolsets
  • Experience with simulation and verification tools such as ModelSim, QuestaSim, or similar
  • Experience designing and implementing high-speed Ethernet interfaces in FPGA fabric, including MAC/PHY integration, UDP/TCP offload, and high-throughput data path design
