Profile match
Reliable Robotics is an aviation technology company based in Mountain View, California, that develops automation systems allowing existing aircraft to be flown under remote supervision, including automated taxi, takeoff, landing and rollout. Founded in 2017 by engineers with backgrounds in aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars, it integrates its own C and C++ flight software and avionics hardware into aircraft and runs ongoing flight test programmes with its pilots and operations team. It hires flight software, guidance, navigation and control, systems safety, electrical and mechanical engineers, together with Part 135 line pilots, A&P mechanics and avionics maintenance technicians.

We're building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives. Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods - and eventually people - move around the planet. We are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality.

As a Sr. FPGA Design Engineer at Reliable Robotics you will be a part of the flight software team which owns the firmware and software at the heart of the Reliable Robotics autonomy stack. We are a creative and diligent team that provides dependable computing, networking, signal processing, and motor control solutions to bring our aircraft to life. Your contributions will directly enable development of our flight computer and air to air RADAR, unlocking higher-level capabilities, and setting the stage for product certification & delivery to market.

Responsibilities

In your role as a FPGA Design Engineer, you will work in a highly collaborative and cross-functional development environment including mutual peer review to maintain high product quality. This work will include FPGA requirements, design, and simulation as well as code synthesis, hardware integration, and testing. You will contribute to multiple FPGA projects in support of the long-term Reliable Robotics technology roadmap.

Basic Success Criteria

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent

  • 8+ years of end-to-end FPGA/ASIC design experience using VHDL, Verilog, or SystemVerilog

  • Professional experience designing FPGA digital logic using industry-standard design, simulation, and synthesis tools

Preferred Criteria

  • Advanced degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent

  • Proven track record of product ownership including development and field support

  • Experience with safety-critical FPGA development (DO-254 level A/B or equivalent industry standard)

  • Experience architecting, implementing, and verifying fixed point DSP algorithms

  • Comfortable with a fast-paced, agile/iterative development life cycle

  • Pragmatic, results-oriented work style

FPGA designers at Reliable Robotics have a unique opportunity to work within a vertically integrated technology stack that extends up to the aircraft level, with a direct impact on the aircraft's capabilities and requirements.
