FPGA Engineer - Control Systems

At Atom Computing, we build quantum computers using arrays of optically trapped neutral atoms that will empower customers to achieve unprecedented computational breakthroughs. We are seeking a FPGA engineer to assist in the implementation of the control systems for our quantum computers.

Requirements

• Drive Core Development: Design, implement, and test FPGA-based functions for high-speed arbitrary waveform generation, image acquisition, digital control loops, and communication interfaces.
• Leverage Advanced Architectures: Build anœd scale firmware for state-of-the-art platforms, specifically utilizing AMD RFSoC and MicroTCA-based architectures to transition our systems toward commercial deployment.
• Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Partner closely with quantum physicists and hardware engineers to translate experimental program requirements into robust, scalable functional block specifications.
• Execute RTL Design & Verification: Perform rigorous logic design and verification within the Xilinx Vivado ecosystem, utilizing SystemVerilog and IP Catalog.
• Automate & Validate: Architect and automate comprehensive test procedures - develop SystemVerilog and cocotb simulation models and regression tests as well as system level hardware tests to be included in CI/CD pipeline integration.
• Drive System Reliability: Support the uptime of our commercial quantum computers by monitoring field performance, debugging complex hardware/firmware integrations, and engineering permanent solutions to root-cause outages.
