They are looking for a Senior FPGA Architect to join their R&D team in Barcelona.
The technical challenge
You would be working on a product that enables multiple instruments (each with its own FPGA) to behave as a single, tightly synchronized system in real time.
We’re talking about:
* Distributed systems with multiple FPGAs
* Deterministic execution with phase coherence
* Synchronization and communication across thousands of channels
* Use cases in quantum computing, radar, 5G/6G, and MIMO systems
This is not an isolated IP problem — it’s a system-level architecture challenge.
The role
They’re looking for someone with strong architectural thinking who still enjoys being hands-on.
* Define FPGA architecture aligned with the overall system
* Decide what belongs in hardware vs software
* Design synchronization and communication layers across FPGAs
* Collaborate closely with software teams (C++) and technical stakeholders
* Translate complex use cases into real solutions
* Stay involved in implementation (~50% hands-on)
The team
* Barcelona-based R&D team, highly international (40+ nationalities)
* Close collaboration with US-based teams
* Working alongside another very senior FPGA engineer
* Strong engineering culture, focused on quality and long-term thinking (not delivery-driven)
Tech stack
* SystemVerilog (core)
* Xilinx / Vivado
* FPGA validation, simulation, static timing analysis
* C++ environment (understanding HW/SW interaction xpzdshu is key)
What they’re looking for
* 7+ years of experience in digital electronics / FPGA
* Proven experience as an FPGA Architect
* Strong system-level design mindset
* Solid background in validation, simulation, and timing
* Collaborative, with strong technical judgment
Why this could be interesting
* Highly complex product with real impact in cutting-edge industries
* Deep technical challenges (not maintenance or trivial legacy work)
* International, engineering-driven environment
* Growth phase with strong product expansion
