We're building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives. Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods — and eventually people — move around the planet. We are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality. As a Sr. FPGA Design Engineer at Reliable Robotics you will be a part of the FPGA team which owns the firmware at the heart of the Reliable Robotics phased array radar. Phased array radar systems have historically been reserved for specialized applications, but we’re making this technology affordable to enable Detect and Avoid for widespread commercial applications. This role will focus on new advanced operational modes. The passion for revolutionary technology to make aviation safer motivates us to come in every day. Responsibilities In your role as a Sr. FPGA Design Engineer, you will be responsible for the entire lifecycle of the FPGA design including product architecture, implementation, synthesis, hardware integration, and testing for our Air to Air Radar solution. You will coordinate with the avionics and radar teams to establish high-level FPGA requirements as well as hardware/software interfaces. You will be responsible for translating MATLAB algorithms to fixed point VHDL implementations, conducting system architecture performance tradeoffs, and verifying real-time performance. You will work in a collaborative development environment including mutual peer review to maintain high product quality. Basic Success Criteria - Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent - 8+ years of full-cycle electronics hardware development experience in a professional environment - Professional experience designing FPGA digital logic using industry-standard design, simulation, and synthesis tools Preferred Criteria - Advanced degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent - Experience working with RADAR or RF transceivers - Proven track record of product ownership including development and field support - Experience with safety-critical FPGA development (DO-254 level A/B or equivalent industry standard) - Experience architecting, implementing, and verifying fixed point DSP algorithms - Comfortable with a fast-paced, agile/iterative development life cycle - Pragmatic, results-oriented work style FPGA designers at Reliable Robotics have a unique opportunity to work within a vertically integrated technology stack that extends up to the aircraft level, with a direct impact on the aircraft's capabilities and requirements. They execute a focused mission to establish the foundation of Reliable’s technology roadmap. We are a fast-paced team that gets results. With your experience, motivation, skills, and enthusiasm, you'll help the team accomplish amazing things. The position will be located at our facility in Seattle, WA. Must be willing to travel 10% of the time. The estimated salary range for this position is $215,000 to $300,000/annual salary and stock option awards + benefits.
