Job Title: FPGA Design Engineer IV
Contract Duration: 1 year
Location: Sunnyvale, CA
Work Arrangement: Onsite
Summary
As a FPGA Design Engineer, you will employ your expertise in problem solving and prototyping to accelerate product development across the hardware organization. You will collaborate with teams within Hardware Engineering, Research and Development, and Industrial Design. These projects cover a wide variety of technical challenges unique to hardware portfolio, including Oculus, Portal, and beyond.
The team is responsible for rapidly building and iterating polished high-fidelity prototypes and development platforms that bring new ideas to life by expressing design intent and user experience – using the best and most appropriate tools and techniques for the task. We are seeking a FPGA Design Engineer who has a passion for working across disciplines (EE, FW/SW) to turn early cutting edge concepts and technologies into reality. As an FPGA Design Engineer, you will be responsible for design of new concepts, technologies and product development.
You must be able to work with minimal guidance, demonstrate a high attention to detail, be partnership-oriented and possess strong problem-solving skills. You must be a self-starter, well-organized and have excellent communication skills. Our team is constantly growing and you will be relied upon to help define team direction and be motivated to improve the effectiveness of our tools and processes from each project to the next.
