Ecliptic Defence and Space is a leader in advanced space and defence hardware solutions, delivering mission-critical systems for satellites, aerospace and defence platforms. Our technologies operate in the most demanding environments, where reliability, performance and security are paramount. We are seeking an Embedded Systems / FPGA Engineer with proven experience in high-reliability designs to join our team and contribute to next-generation aerospace and defence programs.
Responsibilities
Design, implement and validate embedded systems and FPGA architectures for space and defence applications.
Develop VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog code with emphasis on radiation-tolerant, fault-tolerant and high-reliability designs.
Integrate FPGA logic with embedded processors and system-level architectures.
Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams (hardware, software, systems, test) to meet mission-critical requirements.
Conduct simulation, timing analysis and system-level verification to meet aerospace/defence standards.
Support hardware prototyping, bring-up and qualification testing.
Document technical specifications, test plans and compliance reports in line with industry standards (ECSS, MIL-STD, DO-254).
Qualifications
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or related field.
5+ years of experience in embedded systems and FPGA design.
Strong knowledge of VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog and major FPGA toolchains (e.g., Xilinx Vivado, Microchip Libero, Intel Quartus).
Experience with radiation-hardened or space-grade FPGAs (e.g., Xilinx Kintex UltraScale, Microchip RT PolarFire).
Proficiency in embedded C/C++ programming and integration with FPGA-based systems.
Digital Electronic design and trouble shooting
Proficiency in Altium Designer
Solid understanding of high-speed digital design, timing closure and hardware debugging.
Familiarity with aerospace and defence communication interfaces (SpaceWire, CAN, MIL-STD-1553, Ethernet, PCIe).
Experience with lab and test equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, thermal/vibration test systems)
Nice-to-Have
Knowledge of radiation effects in electronics (SEE, TID, SEU) and mitigation strategies.
Experience with RTOS, deterministic real-time systems or secure embedded platforms.
Background in DSP algorithms for radar, communications or navigation systems.
Familiarity with safety-critical standards (DO-254, ECSS-Q-ST-60).
Active or eligible for security clearance (depending on jurisdiction).
What We Offer
The opportunity to contribute to real space missions and defence programs.
Work with cutting-edge technology in a highly skilled, respectful and collaborative environment.
Professional growth and potential involvement in international space/defence collaborations.
