We do not offer sponsorship Job Description We are seeking a Senior FPGA Design Engineer to support the development of real-time 4K video and audio delivery solutions for aircraft cabin environments. This role will focus on designing complex video and audio processing pipelines, integrating high-speed interfaces, and developing efficient Verilog code for Xilinx FPGA devices. Responsibilities Design and implement complex video and audio processing algorithms using Verilog for Xilinx FPGA devices. Develop real-time video pipelines supporting 4K/UHD, HDR/SDR, scaling, color conversion, and up and down conversion. Implement audio processing solutions involving

IEC 60958 LPCM, IEC 61937

Dolby/DTS, I2S, TDM, AES67, CobraNet, Dante, and DSP functions. Integrate high-speed interfaces, including PCIe, DDR, Ethernet, HDMI, and SDI. Support USB-based 4K video playback within an embedded aircraft cabin environment. Perform simulation, verification, and laboratory debugging using logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and custom simulation environments. Partner with hardware and software teams on design partitioning, implementation planning, board bring-up, timing closure, and performance optimization. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define system architecture and FPGA requirements. Analyze hardware schematics to support system integration. Board design is not required. Integrate IP developed by other FPGA engineers while maintaining established code-reuse standards and development practices. Create detailed design documentation, technical specifications, and interface definitions. Contribute to existing projects with opportunities to lead future product-development initiatives. Required Qualifications Eight to ten or more years of hands-on FPGA development experience. Proven expertise with Xilinx FPGAs and related toolchains, including Vivado or similar development tools. Strong Verilog development skills with experience integrating Xilinx and third-party IP. Extensive experience with video interfaces and standards, including HDMI, DisplayPort, MIPI CSI-2/DSI-2, GMSL, GigE, and SDI. Experience integrating and customizing vendor-provided and third-party IP cores. Deep understanding of video and audio pipelines, including real-time 4K signal processing and digital audio-stream handling. Strong knowledge of high-speed digital design methods and best practices. Experience working with multiple clock domains, clock-domain crossings, AXI4-Stream, and AXI memory-mapped interfaces. Ability to maintain coherent configuration and status data across complex FPGA designs. Familiarity with FPGA and processor co-design, including external processors and on-die hard or soft processor architectures. Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, collaborative hardware and software development environment. Preferred Qualifications Experience with the Xilinx Zynq platform. Experience with video compression and decompression. Knowledge of audio resampling and manipulation techniques. Familiarity with Linux environments and scripting for FPGA development tools. Exposure to DevOps practices and CI/CD pipelines for software and firmware development. Strong cross-functional communication skills and the ability to contribute across multiple technical disciplines.
