Job Overview:
Join our dynamic FPGA Prototyping team, a key part of Arm's Solutions Engineering group, as an FPGA design engineer! We are a dedicated group of engineers providing a robust platform to build and test software on Arm's brand-new subsystems and System-on-Chips (SoCs).Our mission is to accelerate the development process by offering a versatile and high-performance prototyping environment that enables seamless software integration and validation. These solutions target a wide range of market segments including mobile, server, IoT, automotive, and more.
As a member of this team, your role will involve building an understanding of incoming Arm IP RTL & SoC designs and making the relevant design changes to implement a prototype of this ASIC RTL on FPGA. This includes RTL integration, design, modifications, simulation/verification and validation on hardware of FPGA specific IPs and peripherals into the larger SoC prototype. You'll be part of a project team responsible for delivery of the prototype for enablement and validation, working collaboratively with other teams in Arm. You’ll have responsibilities estimating and owning tasks, delivering against a plan and have a strong focus on engineering efficiency and quality.
Responsibilities:
- Development and verification of subsystems, peripherals, and IPs used for FPGA prototyping purposes.
- Modifying ASIC RTL from sophisticated systems to target a dedicated FPGA prototyping platform.
- Debugging of test failures and issues by working in collaboration with the design teams and FPGA users.
Required Skills and Experience:
- Strong RTL skills in Verilog / System Verilog with source code under version control.
- Understanding of Arm based systems, including SoC system architecture and AMBA protocols.
- Experience of working with high speed I/O peripherals, such as LPDDR, PCIe, Ethernet, USB, HBM etc. with expertise in debugging in both simulation and hardware.
- Experience with Tcl, Python or other scripting languages.
“Nice To Have” Skills and Experience:
- Exposure to the FPGA design flow from RTL design, simulation, synthesis, place & route, constraints, and timing closure.
- Demonstrate an understanding of ASIC/SoC prototyping in FPGA.
- Programming languages such as: assembly language (ideally Arm assembler), higher-level (e.g. C), object-orientated (e.g. C++).
- Use of a UNIX environment and shell programming.
