Requirements: English
Company: agap2
Region: Nice , Provence-Alpes-Cte d''Azur
As part of the strategic growth of our Sophia-Antipolis office, agap2 is currently seeking an FPGA Design and Prototyping Engineer to join our team and contribute to a high-value project in collaboration with one of our key partners.
Key Responsibilities:
- Enhance and optimize existing FPGA-based prototypes using Synopsys HAPS-100 and Xilinx Virtex-7/UltraScale+ platforms. Perform RTL integration, synthesis, place-and-route, and timing closure for large-scale designs.
- Utilize ProtoCompiler for design partitioning, synthesis, and implementation across multi-FPGA systems.
- Use Synopsys Design Compiler for RTL synthesis and optimization in preparation for FPGA or ASIC implementation.
- Debug and validate FPGA prototypes using tools such as Synopsys Identify, ChipScope, and Vivado Logic Analyzer.
- Collaborate with ASIC/SoC design teams to ensure FPGA compatibility and design fidelity.
- Automate FPGA build and validation flows using scripting languages (TCL, Python, Shell).
- Support software and firmware teams with early access to hardware platforms for development and testing.
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
- 5+ years of experience in FPGA design and prototyping.
- Proficiency in FPGA flow (synthesis, timing analysis, and debugging) on Xilinx (Vivado) and Synopsys (HAPS-100, ProtoCompiler).
- Proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog.
- Proficiency in scripting (TCL, Python, Shell) for tool automation.
- Understanding of ASIC synthesis using DC Compiler.
- Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills and capable of working in autonomy.
- Understanding of version control systems.
- Good communication skills.
