Title: DSP Engineer
 

Location: Herndon VA – remote work is available

Type: Full-time Permanent

 

Responsibilities
  • Designing and testing DSP-based, high speed FPGA designs
  • Designing and supporting top-level digital communication design and system simulations
  • Translating requirements into FPGA/waveform architectures
  • Implementing and documenting FPGA designs using HDL (System Verilog, VHDL, etc.)
  • Supporting systems integration and Test Engineering to produce functional design
  • Producing simulations of and designs for both channel improvement measures, such as spectral bandwidth efficiency, and user density improvement measures, such as interference mitigation/cancellation, multiuser detection, and phased array antenna techniques
  • Designing the implementations for further advances in adaptive TDMA, SCPC return channels.
  • Designing and the implementation of anti-jam DSP techniques implemented in FPGA logic.
  • Writing internal and external facing documents about iDirect Government physical layer FPGA technology

 

Qualifications
  • FPGA design experience using Verilog, VHDL or System Verilog language targeting Xilinx/Altera FPGA’s
