Company

hirify.global develops semiconductor products and technology solutions used in embedded and connected systems.

What you will do

• Develop, integrate, and validate FPGA-based platforms supporting mixed-signal IP and SoC products.
• Support PHY development for next-generation USB and Ethernet products.
• Implement synthesizable RTL, including datapaths, state machines, pipelines, FIFOs, memories, clocking, resets, and interface logic.
• Perform simulation, synthesis, timing analysis, place-and-route, and FPGA implementation using vendor design environments.
• Integrate FPGA systems and bring up boards by loading FPGA images, testing hardware interfaces, and debugging physical circuit cards.
• Collaborate with digital, analog, hardware, firmware, software, ASIC, verification, and validation teams.

Requirements

• 10 or more years of experience in FPGA and/or digital design.
• Strong proficiency in Verilog and/or SystemVerilog for synthesizable RTL design.
• Hands-on experience with self-checking testbenches, functional simulation, and debug using QuestaSim, ModelSim, or equivalent tools.
• Experience with FPGA synthesis, implementation, timing constraints, multiple clock domains, timing analysis, and place-and-route using tools such as AMD/Xilinx Vivado.
• Experience with FPGA system integration, board-level bring-up, laboratory debug equipment, and embedded FPGA logic-debug tools.
• Ability to document requirements, FPGA architecture, block diagrams, interface control documents, and technical designs; scripting or programming experience with TCL, Python, Perl, Linux shell, C++, or Rust is required.

Nice to have
