    Description

    The **Advanced Warfare Technology (AWT)** Division of Leidos is looking for a **FPGA DSP Firmware Engineer** to lead a **design team to design, develop, simulate, and integrate challenging DSP FPGA designs and RF sensor systems** based on given program requirements. The successful candidate will have a strong background in technical team leadership for firmware design, the ability to implement MATLAB algorithms in the FPGA and incorporate client feedback into firmware revisions.

    Primary Responsibilities

    • Lead a firmware design team to design, integrate and test challenging DSP FPGA designs for EW sensor systems.

    • Evaluate a project’s firmware needs, designing a firmware solution to meet project needs and be able to communicate that design to the program leadership.

    • Develop and implement new firmware, debug firmware to ensure it functions properly, evaluate performance and troubleshoot as needed.

    • Incorporate client feedback into firmware revisions, manage budgetary and time constraints.

    • Keep the firmware team up-to-date on technological developments and industry best practices.

    • Lead the design and development of innovative reconfigurable Software-Defined Radio (SDR) architectures, Sensor Systems, Data Acquisition, from Air/Space to Ground deployments for government agencies

    • Analyze schematic diagrams for high-speed digital and/or analog circuitry in associated FPGA-centric systems.

    • Develop and maintain requirements documents, engineering drawings and configuration management policies for FPGA project hierarchy.

    • Develop project test plans and test procedures, provide test planning support, and assist in the execution of both lab testing and field testing.

    • Conduct experimental tests on latest FPGA and SoC evaluation boards, evaluate results, and then develop specifications for selecting next-generation components for deliverable systems.

    • Some travel and work at remote sites for limited time periods may be occasionally required.

    • Provide status reports to project managers and/or division production manager as required.
