Job Summary
We are seeking a skilled and motivated FPGA Prototyping / Emulation Engineer to join our hardware design team. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in FPGA-based prototyping and emulation of complex SoC designs, and will work closely with RTL designers, verification engineers, and software teams to enable early software development and system validation.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain FPGA-based prototyping platforms for pre-silicon validation.
- Integrate and debug RTL blocks on FPGA platforms (e.g., Xilinx, Intel / Altera).
- Collaborate with design and verification teams to bring up emulation environments.
- Optimize FPGA resource usage and timing closure for large-scale designs.
- Support software teams with early access to hardware through emulation / prototyping.
- Automate build and deployment flows using scripting languages (Python, Tcl, Shell).
- Document design flows, debug procedures, and provide training / support to internal teams.
Required Qualifications
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.3–4 years of hands-on experience in FPGA prototyping or emulation.Strong understanding of digital design fundamentals and RTL (Verilog / SystemVerilog).Experience with FPGA tools such as Vivado, Quartus, Synplify, or similar.Familiarity with emulation platforms like Palladium, Veloce, or Zebu is a plus.Proficiency in scripting languages (Python, Perl, Tcl).Good problem-solving and debugging skills.Excellent communication and teamwork abilities.More information about NXP in India...
