Job Description
Job Number 729877BR
Description:
You will be the Senior ASIC & FPGA Design Engineer for the Programmable Logic Design team within Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control (MFC). Our team creates, prototypes, and fields precision engagement aerospace and defense systems for the U.S. and allied militaries, delivering cutting edge digital solutions that protect the warfighter.
What You Will Be Doing
As the Senior ASIC & FPGA Design Engineer you will act as a technical leader on one or more defense programs, shaping the architecture, verification and integration of advanced FPGA based hardware. You will translate system level performance, safety and reliability requirements into robust programmable logic designs, while collaborating with cross functional engineers to keep the program on schedule and on budget. Your responsibilities will include:
• Define architecture and design specifications for ASIC/FPGA components; write clean, maintainable RTL (VHDL, Verilog, SystemVerilog) that meets performance, power and reliability goals.
• Develop synthesis, place and route and timing closure strategies to guarantee deterministic operation on target devices.
• Create comprehensive test plans, simulation models and verification environments (UVM, SystemC, Python based testbenches) to validate functional correctness and timing margins.
• Lead hardware in the loop (HIL) testing, board level debugging and integration with subsystem hardware.
• Conduct timing analysis, power budgeting and resource utilization studies to optimize device selection and FPGA utilization.
• Manage configuration control using GitLab (or equivalent), maintain version controlled repositories and ensure full traceability of all artifacts.
• Produce complete design documentation-specifications, test plans, verification reports and release packages-that complies with aerospace standards.
• Collaborate with systems, software, hardware, mechanical, test, manufacturing and quality teams to guarantee seamless integration and milestone compliance.
• Mentor junior engineers, championing best practices in FPGA development, verification and configuration management.
Why Join Us
Do you want to be part of a company culture that empowers employees to think big, lead with a growth mindset, and make the impossible a reality? We provide the resources and give you the flexibility to enable inspiration and focus. If you have the passion and courage to dream big, work hard, and have fun doing what you love then we want to build a better tomorrow with you.
