UVM Advance Verification FPGA Engineer (Lead or Senior)

UVM Advance Verification FPGA Engineer (Lead or Senior)

Company:

The Boeing Company

Boeing AvionX has an exciting opportunity UVM Advance Verification FPGA Engineer at Lead or Senior level to join us as part of our Boeing Digital Avionics team. We are rapidly expanding our Digital Avionics development team consisting of engineers passionate in developing trusted, high assurance FPGA devices for advance Commercial and Military Avionics Systems.  Selected candidates will have the opportunity to choose from one of our three Boeing AvionX locations:  Phoenix Arizona area (Mesa), Dallas Texas area (Plano), or St Louis Missouri area (Hazelwood).

You will also get to enjoy 4+ weeks of paid time off and 12-14 Paid Holidays, including our Winter Break from Christmas to New Years.

We are seeking UVM Advance Verification engineers who are ambitious and will thrive in an advance technology development environment. You will help develop early adopter technology rapidly for insertion in our ruggedized and robust Avionics solutions. You will leverage your skills and capabilities in all areas of the FPGA verification lifecycle to include architecting UVM/UVMF test benches, develop test cases, generating FPGA verification artifacts, and leading or supporting FPGA milestone verification reviews.  Senior candidates will also drive continuous improvement to our FPGA verification process, evaluate new FPGA development tools, and provide mentorship to our junior engineers.  

The work we do enables the missions and needs of our military and commercial customers. Our team of engineers leverage leading-edge technology and work with world-class partners to develop solutions using some of the most advance SoCs in the world.  We develop robust, high-performance custom digital processing technologies to enable high-integrity, low SWAP-C Avionics.  We utilize the latest digital IC development processes with industry-best tools to produce the most trusted and cyber secure digital solutions for our Avionics customers.

Our focused Avionics center of excellence development group produces advance digital solutions for multiple manned and unmanned aircraft. Our extensive portfolio of products provides opportunities to learn and grow with exposure to the breadth of the Boeing Avionics products.

As an Advance Verification FPGA Engineer on the Boeing AvionX team, you will verify state-of-the-art digital ICs/SoCs to support the most critical programs across the Boeing Commercial and Defense enterprise.  We also collaborate with other electronics groups across the company and around the world.

Position Responsibilities:

• Perform UVM Advance Verification on single or multi-FPGA programs working on small or large teams consisting of other FPGA designers, verification engineers, and project engineers.

• Support FPGA development projects requiring early proof of concept designs as well as high assurance / safety critical FPGA development programs requiring very high reliability FPGA performance.

• Collaborate with system engineers, hardware engineers, software engineers, and FPGA engineers to fully understand system requirements and derived requirements flow down to architect a complete verification solution that fully verifies the FPGA designs.

• Drive robustness and rigor into early adopter technology solutions that lack sufficient level of verification for use in high assurance / safety critical Avionics solutions.

• Engage as needed during system, software, hardware, and FPGA lab integration to replicate unique conditions that produce unexpected behavior.

• Contribute to continuously improving upon our FPGA Verification processes to keep pace with the latest technologies and high assurance methodologies and tools.

Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):

• Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering, Engineering Technology (including Manufacturing Technology), Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry

• 3 or more years of FPGA or ASIC UVM or UVMF experience supporting high assurance or safety critical applications

Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience):

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical or computer engineering

• Experience leading ASIC/FPGA verification teams to fully verify and deliver high reliability solutions on time

• Proficient in utilizing the latest FPGA development and version control tools in a Linux compute farm environment

• Experience verifying FPGA or ASIC per a DO-254 Design Assurance level A or B development process

• Experience verifying FPGA or ASIC per a cyber secure development environment/process
