Anduril Industries is a defense technology company transforming U.S. and allied military capabilities through advanced technology. The company develops Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that processes thousands of data streams into real-time 3D command and control centers. Anduril brings cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to military applications.
In this Staff FPGA Engineer role, you will work with a cross-functional engineering team (RF, DSP, Firmware, FPGA, software, Test) to deliver robust embedded processing solutions for communications and networking systems. You will execute and optimize the FPGA firmware implementation development lifecycle, from algorithms in MATLAB and/or Simulink through requirements definition, architecture, design, development, firmware implementation, test, integration, support, and sustainment for low-cost FPGAs, SoCs, and SoMs.
Key responsibilities include establishing and optimizing comprehensive product development workflows and best practices across the HDL firmware lifecycle, encompassing architecture, design, simulation, verification, and system testing. You will also develop microprocessor ICDs (Interface Control Documents) between FPGA and message/data handling schemes.
This is a remote position offering significant technical scope and the opportunity to influence firmware development practices across the organization.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent
- 10+ years of experience designing, implementing, and verifying FPGA-based systems using VHDL or Verilog
- Demonstrated experience working with cross-functional hardware and/or embedded systems product development teams, taking firmware and software from concept to production
- Experience using code-generators to translate MATLAB/Simulink algorithms into FPGA implementations
- Proficient in C and C++
- Experience with RTOS (Real Time Operating Systems)
- Familiarity with common MCU, CPU, FPGA devices and technologies
- Familiarity with standard interfaces such as Ethernet, I2C, SPI, PCIe, USB, etc.
- Familiarity with flight software architectures and development processes for embedded systems
- Proficiency with basic EE test equipment (Oscilloscopes, Spectrum Analyzers, Signal Generators, etc.) and testing PCBAs
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- Experience with wireless communications systems
- Expertise in computer networking
- Experience with AI-generated software (CoPilot, Claude, Code-GPT, etc.)
- Experience with implementing enhanced security measures
- Familiarity with high reliability designs in aerospace environments
- Familiarity with aircraft systems architectures, especially with redundant systems
- Understanding and familiarity with DO-254, DO-178C, DO-160, DO-311A
- Understanding and familiarity with MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-704, MIL-STD-461
- Experience designing, testing, and troubleshooting complex board designs in communications systems
