Emerson
Principal Software Engineer (FPGA/DSP)
Emerson, Austin, Texas, us, 78716
We, the Systems R&D team in the Aerospace, Defense and Government (ADG) Unit focus on the design and development of components and systems in key application areas including avionics, communications, navigation, Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), Electronic Warfare (EW) and RADAR by using NI's portfolio of PXI RF instruments, modular FPGA co-processors, software-defined radios (USRP products), and software tools (LabVIEW, LabVIEW FPGA, open source). We build IP at different levels to offer outstanding system-level solutions!
In this Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:
Drive research.
Design, implement and test signal processing and communication algorithms required for satellite communications, radar, communications, and navigation systems.
Validate algorithms with real-world hardware (software defined radios) to prove feasibility of algorithms with real world signals.
Verify performance at the system level with deployment.
Map developed algorithms to key application spaces in radar, satcom and communication systems.
Independently lead the feature(s) through release.
Participate in product design and code review efforts with the rest of the team.
Become a leading technical authority on key technologies in this space.
We are looking for the ideal candidate:
You have the ability to independently identify and solve application-specific system engineering problems. You have a track record of being a technical authority with outstanding implementation skills and persistently drive tasks and lead projects to successful completion. Can effectively interact and connect with engineering teams and management. You possess strong problem-solving skills, work ethic, and strive to succeed with a demonstrated ability in effectively diagnosing technical issues and proposing reasonable solutions.
For This Role, You Will Need:
A Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering (EE), Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), or Computer Science (CS).
Minimum 10 years relevant engineering experience in simulation and test FPGA designs to ensure they meet performance and functionality requirements.
Experience using System Verilog or VHDL to implement synthesizable logic targeting FPGAs. Experience with HSS standards like Aurora and Ethernet is a plus.
Experience writing testbenches and simulation models to verify logic designs.
Understanding of radio frequency concepts such as freq/wl and freq/t relationships.
Applicant should have basic understanding of RF time and spectral measurements.
A
US Citizen and/or US Person - required by law, regulations and/or government contracts with the DoD.
Preferred Qualifications we are looking for:
You are experienced in DSP – FFT’s, sampling algorithms experience.
Have experience with common clock domain crossing methods, have knowledge of static timing analysis and experience writing timing constraints.
Have experience writing and implementing test plans to verify board level digital circuits.
Familiarity with common benchtop instruments such as oscilloscopes, DMMs, function generators, and power supplies.
Skilled in DSP/SDR Programming languages such as Python, Matlab, LabVIEW, C, C++ and development experience on Windows/Linux platform.
Be familiar with Xilinx, Intel, or Lattice FPGAs and CPLDs, as well as their design tools.
Experienced collaborating with other technical fields such as Analog, Software, Mechanical, and RF.
Familiar with communications standards such as CCSDS, IRIG106 &/or signals such as GPS, 5G, LTE.
Experience with RF instrumentation such as spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes. Experience with DSP/SDR algorithm design.
Applicant should understand baseband communications theory concepts such as: Digital Up and Down Conversion (DUC /DDC), sampling theory filter operations, i.e. FIR, IIR, windowing.
Have experience with basic modulation schemes such as PSK, FSK. Demodulation techniques for timing and frequency recovery. Familiar with sophisticated modulation techniques. Familiar with RF measurements.
