FPGA Firmware Engineer

About Vanix Technologies :

Vanix Technologies is at the forefront of innovation in electric vehicle (EV) technology. We specialize in creating cutting-edge solutions for electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE), pushing the boundaries of efficiency, safety, and reliability. We are looking for a talented FPGA-based EVSE Firmware Engineer to join our dynamic team and contribute to the development of next-generation EV charging systems.

Job Description :

As an FPGA-based EVSE Firmware Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining firmware for FPGA-based EVSE systems. You will work closely with hardware engineers, software developers, and system architects to ensure seamless integration and optimal performance of our EV charging solutions. This role requires a deep understanding of FPGA design, EV / EVSE systems, and firmware development.

Key Responsibilities :

• Create projects in Vivado for the target FPGA devices, and write HDL code. Run synthesis and implementation, and generate bitstream files.
• Firmware Development with Vitis SDK by creating platform projects, writing bare-metal C / C++ code, build and debug projects.
• Embedded Linux Development with PetaLinux by creating PetaLinux projects, configuring kernel and root filesystem, build and deploy Linux images.
• Integrate firmware with FPGA design, boot systems, and verify / debug the complete system.
• Implement and support interfaces such as RS232, RS485, Flash, DDR3, RFID, WiFi / Bluetooth, LCD, and Ethernet.
• Work with communication protocols like UART, I2C, SPI, and EVSE-specific protocols such as J1772, OCPP, Matter, and Home Green PHY.
• Build and synchronise the operating system with dashboards or remote servers and web applications. Building OTA functionalities.
• Document design specifications, test plans, and technical reports.
• Work closely with cross-functional teams, including hardware engineers and software developers, to ensure integrated and comprehensive product development.

Qualifications :

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
• Minimum of 4 years of experience in firmware development for EV or EVSE systems.
• Experience with real-time operating systems (RTOS) and embedded Linux.
• Experience with FPGA tools such as Xilinx Vivado, Vitis SDK, or similar.
• Familiarity with communication protocols used in EVSE systems (e.g., J1772, OCPP, ISO 15118, CAN, Modbus).
• Knowledge of safety and compliance standards for EVSE (e.g., UL, IEC, SAE).
• Experience with FPGA Zynq interfaces RS232, RS485, DDR3, CAN, RFID, Wifi, Bluetooth, LCD, and UART, I2C, SPI, and TCP / IP protocols.
• Experience in IoT Gateways and cloud communication such as OCPP knowledge is a plus.
• Proficiency in VHDL / Verilog for FPGA design and development is a plus.
• Hands-on experience with hardware debugging tools and techniques (e.g., oscilloscopes, logic analyzers).

How to Apply :

If you are passionate about firmware engineering and FPGAs and want to contribute to the future of Electric Vehicle Charging technology, we would love to hear from you! Please submit your resume, a cover letter detailing your relevant experience (related to EVSE), and any project portfolios to satya@vanix.in or hr@vanix.in

Note : This is an urgent requirement. Suitable candidates will receive immediate consideration for the position, along with a competitive salary and startup perks.
