FPGA & DSP Engineer Full time, Permanent Hybrid UK-based applications only, no sponsorship available. - The Opportunity We are recruiting an experienced FPGA & DSP Engineer on behalf of a well-established UK engineering consultancy delivering advanced technology solutions across radar, communications, and sensing systems. This role offers the chance to work on technically challenging client programmes, contribute to proprietary IP development, and operate across the full engineering lifecycle within a multidisciplinary environment. The Role You will play a key role in the design, implementation, and validation of FPGA-based solutions, with a strong emphasis on digital signal processing. Most development is targeted at AMD (Xilinx) platforms, including Zynq SoC devices, using the Vivado toolchain, although experience with other FPGA families is also welcomed. Working closely with hardware, software, and systems engineers, you will help translate customer requirements into robust, production-ready FPGA architectures. Projects typically span concept development, architecture definition, implementation, verification, and ongoing technical support. Key Responsibilities Design and deliver high-quality FPGA and DSP implementations with minimal supervision Develop, simulate, and verify HDL designs using industry-standard toolchains Contribute to technical discussions, design reviews, and project planning activities Support client engagement at a technical level, including pre-contract scoping and feasibility discussions Identify and communicate technical risks in a timely and constructive manner Produce clear technical documentation and report progress effectively Potentially mentor and support junior engineers within project teams Technical Background Strong FPGA development experience using HDL (VHDL and/or Verilog) Proficiency with AMD/Xilinx devices and the Vivado toolchain Solid grounding in digital signal processing Experience in radar, RF, communications, or sensing systems is highly advantageous Familiarity with simulation, test, and verification methodologies Multidisciplinary exposure (electronics, firmware, or systems) is beneficial, though not essential About You Comfortable working in a consultancy or project-based engineering environment Self-motivated, adaptable, and able to take ownership of technical work Confident collaborating within multidisciplinary teams Keen to broaden your technical skill set and pursue continuous professional development What's On Offer Competitive compensation package Exposure to a wide variety of technically demanding client projects Genuine support for professional development and career progression Friendly, collaborative working culture with a strong engineering focus Office location just south of Cambridge, with good road and rail access
