About The Position

As a Hardware Engineer at L3Harris, you will be responsible for the architecture, design, and development of next-generation Electronic Safe and Arm Devices using state-of-the-art technologies. The role involves ASIC and FPGA designs for sensor interfaces, sequence verification, A/D and D/A interfaces, communication protocols, state machines, and timer chains used in electronic fuzing devices for Department of Defense weapon systems. Microsemi/Actel is the targeted FPGA platform, and QuestaSim is the simulation tool. The work primarily focuses on Verilog FPGA design, SystemVerilog UVM verification, and C#-based microcontroller development.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree and at least 4 years of relevant experience; or a graduate degree and at least 2 years of related experience; or, in lieu of a degree, at least 8 years of related experience.

Nice To Haves

• Knowledge of Verilog for logic design.
• Programming experience in C for embedded systems, including algorithm development, data-structure manipulation, and highly optimized code implementation.
• Experience with laboratory tools such as logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, JTAG/ICE debuggers, and protocol analyzers.
• Familiarity with hardware, software, and firmware development methodologies, including design verification, code reviews, unit testing, prototyping, and product testing.
• Familiarity with code version-control tools such as Subversion (SVN), Git, or TFS.
• Knowledge of digital design practices and principles, logic design and architecture, and HDL experience such as Verilog or VHDL.
• Knowledge of SystemVerilog verification using AVM, VMM, OVM, or UVM.
• Experience developing C# source code for bare-metal microcontroller development.
• Good English communication skills, both spoken and written.
• Action-oriented and organized.
• Ability to handle short-notice needs or requests.

Responsibilities

• Analyze requirements and define architecture; design and debug FPGA and associated hardware, microcontroller products, and firmware.
• Develop Verilog HDL targeting antifuse and enhanced Flash FPGAs.
• Analyze functional issues and profile performance using hardware and firmware in test environments or target host systems.
• Contribute to process improvements that support hardware-firmware quality and time-to-market.
