Description


Chipton-Ross is seeking multiple FPGA Design Engineer 3's for a contract opportunity in Chandler, AZ.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS (REQUIRED SKILLS/EXPERIENCE):
o Recent experience with Hardware Description Language (VHDL) and formal verification (OSVVM preferred) for FPGAs, CPLDs and/or ASICs.
o Ability to work in teams and communicate clearly across various levels of engineers.
o Ability to translate system performance and operational specifications into programmable logic requirements, design specifications, test specifications, and users' guides.

POSITION RESPONSIBILITIES:
This position is for either a Principal Engineer or Senior Principal Engineer Digital:

Seeking FPGA Design Engineers to be involved in full life-cycle product development of launch vehicle avionics and test system design.
In this role, you will identify, investigate, design, and develop programmable logic solutions, in FPGAs or CPLDs, for digital electronic equipment using VHSIC Hardware Description Language (VHDL) to solve a variety of technical challenges. You will test programmable logic designs in the lab using custom and/or industry standard tools and equipment to analyze performance and verify functionality meets established design requirements.
