FPGA Engineer &ndash

VeeRteq Solutions LLC, Waukesha, WI, United States


Roela: FPGA Engineer Medical Devices (VHDL)

Experience:

5+ Years
Location:

Waukesha, WI (Onsite)
As an FPGA Engineer Medical Devices (VHDL), you will be a part of an Agile team to build healthcare applications and implement new features while adhering to the best coding development standards.
Responsibilities

Own FPGA RTL design using VHDL as the primary HDL. Develop reusable IP blocks including state machines, controllers, DSP modules, and memory interfaces.
Implement deterministic, low latency data paths for diagnostic imaging and acquisition systems.
Translate system requirements into FPGA architecture with complete traceability.
Implement and validate interfaces for precision ADC/DAC front ends: JESD204B/C, LVDS, MIPI, SPI, I C, UART.
Build high throughput acquisition and buffering pipelines using DDR4/DDR5 and AXI.
Ensure deterministic timing, synchronization, and clocking across modalities (Ultrasound/CT/MRI/sensing subsystems).
Develop self-checking VHDL testbenches for block and system level verification.
Use ModelSim/QuestaSim, Vivado Simulator, or Riviera PRO for simulation. Perform synthesis, P&R, timing analysis, and closure using Xilinx Vivado (preferred) or Intel Quartus.
Execute linting, CDC/RDC checks, and optimize power and resource utilization.
Debug via ILA/SignalTap, oscilloscopes, logic and protocol analyzers.
Provide design controls and documentation for FDA, EU MDR, and global regulatory needs.
Contribute to requirements traceability (Jama/DOORS), risk management (ISO 14971), and verification per IEC 62304 for programmable logic.
Address safety (IEC 60601 1), EMC (IEC 60601 1 2), cybersecurity, FMEA, hazard analysis, and IP/SOUP assessments.
Educational Qualifications

Bachelor's or Master's in Electronics, Electrical, Computer Engineering, or related field.
Skills

Mandatory Skills

4 10 years hands‑on FPGA design experience with VHDL as the primary HDL.
Strong experience with synchronous digital design fundamentals: clocking, CDC, reset-domain considerations, timing analysis and closure; FPGA development using Xilinx/AMD or Intel platforms.
Proven ability to develop complex state machines, DSP blocks, and interface logic in VHDL.
Familiarity with lab bring‑up and FPGA system debugging.
