Job Title : FPGA Engineer – Image Processing (Avionics)
Location : Gurgaon
Experience Level : 5+ years
Employment Type : Full-time
Department : Hardware / Avionics Engineering
Position Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled FPGA Engineer with a minimum of 5 years of experience in image processing and embedded hardware development , preferably within the avionics or aerospace industry . The ideal candidate will be responsible for the design, development, verification, and optimization of FPGA-based image processing systems used in advanced airborne vision and sensor platforms.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and verify FPGA-based architectures for real-time image and video processing in avionics applications.
- Develop RTL code (VHDL / Verilog / SystemVerilog) for high-speed image pipelines, compression, and filtering algorithms.
- Integrate FPGA modules with embedded processors (e.g., ARM, MicroBlaze, Nios) and external interfaces such as ARINC818, ARINC429, PCIe, HDMI, DVI, LVDS, DDR4 / 3 / 2 & Ethernet, USB, SD, eMMC, I3C / I2C, SPI / QSPI etc.
- Optimize FPGA designs for performance, area, and power efficiency under aerospace hardware constraints.
- Collaborate with system, hardware, and software teams to ensure seamless integration of FPGA solutions into avionics systems.
- Conduct simulation, synthesis, and timing analysis using industry-standard tools (Vivado, Quartus, ModelSim, etc.).
- Participate in DO-254 design assurance activities, including documentation, verification traceability, and test case generation.
- Support hardware bring-up , debugging, and in-lab testing of FPGA boards and image acquisition systems.
- Contributes to the evaluation of new FPGA devices, IP cores, and image processing technologies .
