## Description

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.

We are looking for a Senior FPGA Design Engineer to join our Air Dominance and Strike (AD&S) Electrical Engineering Team in Costa Mesa, CA.

In this role, you will design and integrate RTL for FPGA and SoC platforms used in high-performance embedded systems, avionics, and mission-critical hardware.

**Responsibilities**

- Design and implement RTL in VHDL, Verilog, or SystemVerilog for FPGA and SoC-based systems.

- Translate system and hardware requirements into microarchitecture, interface definitions, and implementation plans.

- Own FPGA designs or major functional blocks from architecture through integration, timing closure, and lab debug.

- Develop and execute simulation, synthesis, and implementation flows, including timing and resource closure.

- Debug functional, timing, and integration issues in simulation and on hardware.

- Support board bring-up, lab validation, and system integration on target platforms.

- Collaborate with hardware, embedded software, systems, and verification engineers to deliver complete solutions.

- Participate in design reviews, code reviews, and technical documentation.

- Contribute to reusable design practices, coding standards, and development workflows.

- Support rapid prototyping while maintaining the engineering rigor required for production hardware.

**Requirements**

- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.

- 8+ years of FPGA, ASIC, or closely related digital design experience.

- Proficiency in VHDL and/or Verilog/SystemVerilog.

- Hands-on experience with simulation, synthesis, implementation, and timing closure on modern FPGA platforms.

- Hands-on debug experience in simulation and on hardware.

- Strong digital design fundamentals, including clocking, resets, state machines, CDC awareness, and interface design.

- Proficiency with Linux-based development environments, Git-based workflows, and Tcl and/or Python scripting.

- Strong written and verbal communication skills.

- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.

**Preferred Qualifications**

- 12+ years of FPGA development experience.

- Experience owning a major functional block, subsystem, or full FPGA design from concept through integration.

- Familiarity with AMD (Xilinx), Intel/Altera, or Lattice FPGA development environments.

- Experience with embedded systems and hardware/software co-design, including AMD (Xilinx) Vitis or similar tooling.

- Familiarity with common high-speed or embedded interfaces such as Ethernet, PCIe, JESD204, SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, or MIL-STD-1553.

- Familiarity with DO-254 or similar military or safety-critical development standards.

- Experience building or improving reusable IP, verification infrastructure, CI/CD flows, or team workflows.

- Familiarity with modern build and development tooling such as Jira, automated regression infrastructure, and reproducible build environments.

**Benefits** Anduril offers top-tier benefits for full-time employees, including comprehensive health insurance, retirement savings plans, and paid time off.
