🚀 Senior FPGA Architect – Barcelona
🌍 About the Role
On behalf of our client, a leading international technology company, we’re seeking a Senior FPGA Architect to join their R&D team in Barcelona. You’ll design FPGA architectures that power next-generation technologies, combining deep technical expertise with system-level vision. This is ideal for an experienced professional who has moved beyond pure coding to architectural thinking – translating partner use cases into FPGA solutions that integrate seamlessly into complex hardware/software systems.
đź’ˇ What You'll Do
* Work with partners to define FPGA functionality and shape high-level architectural concepts.
* Define FPGA designs that align with overall system goals and interface effectively with broader hardware/software environments.
* Ensure FPGA blocks and IP cores interface seamlessly within complex systems.
* Stay hands-on in implementation while maintaining architectural integrity.
* Shape FPGA solutions that contribute to complete system performance, beyond standalone functionality.
âś… What We're Looking For
* 7+ years in digital electronics with strong FPGA expertise.
* Proven ability to define and architect FPGA designs into broader systems.
* Understanding of how FPGA blocks and IP cores interact with system-level architectures.
* A mindset that balances hands-on design with architectural/system-level vision.
* Partner-facing experience and comfort engaging directly with stakeholders.
* Flexibility: gaps in simulation, validation, or tooling are acceptable if you bring strong FPGA architectural vision and system-level understanding.
đź“Ť Location & Team
* Based in Barcelona, with hybrid flexibility.
* Join a 12-person international R&D team collaborating across Europe and the USA.
🎯 Why This Role Matters
This isn’t about implementing specs – it’s about defining how FPGA enables the next generation of advanced systems. We’re looking for an architect, not just an implementer. Your architectural decisions will directly shape products that push the boundaries of what’s possible.
