Job Description
Description:
• I need a NON CLEARED contractor who have experience with FPGA DVT DO-254 DAL A certification.
• We need someone to review FPGA Test Plan and help write Test Procedures and Test cases. It will nice to have a contractor who has done FPGA testing in the lab as per the Procedures and write Test Report that meets DAL A rigor.
Senior Firmware Engineer:
• Collins Aerospace is seeking a highly skilled and innovative Senior Software Engineering Contractor to work with our Applied Research and Technology (ART) Microelectronics Technology team.
• Your work will contribute to the development of cutting-edge defense solutions across Mission Systems, leveraging your expertise in the design, implementation, verification, and integration of high-performance digital FPGAs.
• These solutions will undergo the highest level of certification rigor in accordance with DO-254 DAL A requirements.
What You Will Do
• Requirements Management: Developing, reviewing, and maintaining hardware requirements to ensure completeness, correctness, and traceability to system-level requirements in DOORS.
• Design and Implementation: Creating complex hardware designs, often using FPGAs, that meet DAL A objectives.
• Verification and Validation: Performing rigorous verification activities, including functional testing, quantitative analysis, and reviews, to demonstrate that the hardware meets all requirements
• Tool Assessment: Evaluating and qualifying design and verification tools to ensure they do not introduce errors, especially for Level A hardware
• Documentation and Compliance: Maintaining detailed records of design decisions, verification results, and traceability matrices to satisfy certification authorities
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Working closely with systems engineers, software teams, and certification authorities to ensure integrated system safety.
Qualifications You Must Have:
• Proven experience in FPGA development and DO-254 compliance processes.
• Familiarity with DO-254 DAL A, Mil-516C related certification guidance.
• Expertise in verification planning, testing, and tool qualification.
• Ability to produce thorough documentation and maintain traceability from requirements to implementation and verification.
• RTL coding and simulation in VHDL or Verilog
• Digital circuit architecture, design, resource tradeoffs, timing analysis and timing closure
• Testbench development for the verification of RTL blocks using VHDL or System Verilog.
• Proficiency using FPGA simulation and synthesis tools (e.g. Modelsim, Synplify, Quartus, Vivado, or other FPGA-specific tools)
• Familiarity with revision control concepts and tools (e.g. Git, Subversion)
• Ability to work with minimal supervision, team with engineers of a variety of skills and backgrounds, and matrix into projects with aggressive schedules and frequent milestones.
• Strong oral and written communication skills with the ability to document and present one's work and status
