An established, technology-driven engineering organisation operating in the advanced imaging and detection sector is seeking a highly capable FPGA Engineer with strong VHDL development experience to join their growing engineering team.
You will play a key role in designing and developing high-speed FPGA-based systems, working across the full product lifecycle—from concept through to production. This is an exciting opportunity to work on cutting-edge embedded systems, signal processing, and high-speed digital design, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams in a dynamic environment.
Key responsibilities for the FPGA Engineer role based in Egham
• Design and develop FPGA firmware using VHDL for high-performance applications
• Implement high-speed digital signal processing systems using ADCs, DACs, and memory interfaces
• Manage the full firmware development lifecycle (design, implementation, verification, and production release)
• Debug and troubleshoot hardware and firmware issues using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analysers)
• Develop and execute verification & validation plans
• Collaborate with hardware, software, and production teams to ensure seamless system integration
• Produce and maintain technical documentation, including specifications, test reports, and production documentation
• Support manufacturing and production teams with technical expertise
• Contribute to continuous improvement and innovation in FPGA and embedded technologies
Required Skills & Experience for the FPGA Engineer role in Egham
• Degree in Electrical & Electronic Engineering or related field
• Minimum 2+ years of FPGA/VHDL development experience
• Strong knowledge of FPGA design (Xilinx, Lattice or similar toolchains)
• Experience with serial communication protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, RS232/485, CAN)
• Knowledge of high-speed interfaces (Ethernet, USB, TCP/IP, UDP, Aurora, etc.)
• Experience with hardware debugging and lab instrumentation
• Understanding of embedded systems and digital design principles
• Familiarity with schematic capture and simulation tools (e.G., Altium, pSPICE)
• Basic programming skills (e.G., Python)
The position can be a mid or senior level FPGA Engineer to work on innovative, high-speed FPGA projects
