Occupation
FPGA Engineer
FPGA Engineers design and verify digital logic for field-programmable gate arrays using hardware description languages (HDL) like VHDL or Verilog, creating the firmware that powers specialized hardware systems in aerospace, communications, and semiconductor applications. The work involves RTL design, simulation, timing analysis, and often collaboration with RF engineers, hardware teams, and software developers to integrate logic into larger systems and validate designs through testing and physical hardware bring-up. The role attracts detail-oriented engineers with strong fundamentals in digital logic, EDA tools, and problem-solving skills, and typically requires experience with hardware description languages and familiarity with high-speed protocols or radiation-hardened design depending on the application domain.
