Miftek is a Purdue Research Park company that designs state of the art instrumentation for life science and diagnostics. This rapidly expanding company has been awarded several key patents in the fields of cytometry, spectroscopy, and photonics. We are now developing a novel solution for single cell analysis. Our facility located in West Lafayette has easy access to campus, shopping, and downtown.
Role
A full-time FPGA Engineer will be integral to developing our newest technology to the point of commercialization. They will plan, design, and validate advanced RTL designs for FPGAs/SOCs and contribute to the development of embedded systems which meet the high performance and reliability standards required to compete in our industry. Based on relevant experience, they may also participate in several other areas of hardware development adjacent to digital logic design.
Responsibilities
- Implement new digital designs for controls, interfacing, data acquisition, and signal processing
- Interface custom components and IP with hard processor and microcontroller systems
- Contribute C/C firmware as necessary for hardware/software integration and validation
- Proactively identify requirements and critical issues in our electronics designs
- Participate in the high-level planning and review of our embedded systems
- Assist in the testing and bring-up of new hardware
- Review HDL and firmware code, and improve the performance and reliability of existing systems
Qualifications
- BS or MS in Electrical Engineering or closely related field
- 4+ years of professional experience within the field of RTL design and verification is ideal
- Demonstrable experience with FPGA/Microprocessor interfacing e.g. Avalon, AXI
- Familiarity with application of DRAM external memory interfaces in FPGA
- Experience with Verilog, SystemVerilog, and Intel (Altera) FPGA toolchain highly preferred
- Proficiency in writing C/C firmware in SOC environments
- Able to work cohesively with electrical, firmware, and software teams
- Able to gain a deep understanding of our core technology
- Experience in any of the following areas may also be of benefit, but is not required: USB 3, PCIe 3, or 10G Ethernet
- Interfacing, Embedded Linux or RTOS, Image signal processing, HDL co-simulation, RF test and measurement
Employees of Miftek receive competitive salaries, full health coverage, 401k, and excellent leave, as well as opportunities to attend technology conferences. We have a growing team of highly skilled scientists and engineers working to advance new solutions for life science.
