Elveo brings together a combined 20 years of expertise to close the coverage gap for more than 50 mobile network operators (MNOs) and major distribution partners operating in 60+ countries worldwide.\nThat heritage and our technology powers what we call ‘elevated intelligence’ - a new approach that processes and adapts on orbit, delivering voice and data services straight to mobile users, IoT devices and machines across enterprise, government and humanitarian sectors worldwide.\nAs a team, we’re on a mission to deliver powerful compute and connectivity directly to individuals and objects everywhere on Earth.\nJoin us, and become part of a globally inclusive company that is transforming satellite communications from a niche service to an essential global infrastructure, and democratizing connectivity for billions worldwide.\nReady to take the next step? Join us.\nJob Summary\nElveo is developing cellular-based space payloads and seeks engineers with expertise and experience designing and developing custom software-defined radio (SDR) platforms. Aspects of the position require an understanding of FPGA hardware, firmware, digital signal processing, and algorithms for SDR-based satellite communication.\nAs a Senior FPGA/AIE Engineer , you will support the development of custom radio platforms for the primary (cellular service link) and secondary (TT&C / feeder link) communication links. The platform will initially be tested in a lab environment, then on the payload prototype in a lab environment that simulates orbit operations, and finally in space. The Senior FPGA Engineer will also be responsible for designing and implementing methods for ensuring successful testing, verification, and validation.\nCore Responsibilities\nAs a Senior FPGA/AIE Engineer, your core responsibilities are as follows:\nDesign and test high-speed FPGA systems for satellite communication systems.\n\nBuild with AMD Versal hard IP such as AIE, NoC, CIPS, MRMAC, and DDR controllers.\n\nModel and implement DSP algorithms in RTL or AMD AIE/AIE-ML processors.\n\nImplement device driver software in C, C++, or other languages for a Linux environment.\n\nDevelop and maintain documentation and ICDs for in-house IP blocks and other related components.\n\nMinimum Requirements\nA Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.\n\nAt least five years of recent related experience\n\nAt least three years of recent experience working with Xilinx/Altera FPGAs.\n\nProficient in at least one of the following:\nSystemVerilog programming\n\nAMD Versal SoC programming\n\nAIE-ML or AIE programming, specifically intrinsic based development.\n\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience with timing closure for high utilization FPGA builds.\n\nExperience with FPGA SoCs and Bare Metal or Petalinux design flows.\n\nExperience with UVM or hardware in the loop testing methodologies.\n\nExperience with RFICs and multi chip synchronization.\n\nExperience with high-speed interfaces such as JESD204C and high speed Ethernet.\n\nKnowledge of the physical layer of cellular standards (e.g., GSM, LTE, 5G) is a plus.\n\nITAR Requirements\nTo comply with U.S. Government export control regulations (ITAR), applicants must be one of the following: (i) a U.S. citizen or national, (ii) a lawful permanent resident (green card holder), (iii) a refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) an asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158. Individuals who do not meet these criteria must be eligible to obtain the necessary authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
