About The Position

L3Harris Telemetry & RF Products in Bristol, Pennsylvania currently has an opening for a Lead Digital Hardware Engineer. In this role, you will develop digital circuits for data acquisition and telemetry products. Responsibilities will include generation of specifications, component selection, high-speed digital circuit design, FPGA coding, simulation, and analyses, support of PWB layout, and integration & verification testing. Additionally, this role will serve as the electrical engineering site leader with six direct reports over multiple facets of EE. Essential Functions: • Generate design concepts and architectures to satisfy performance requirements • Design sub-systems and modules, with emphasis on digital circuits and FPGA code, coordinating integration with Analog, RF, Software, and Mechanical Engineering disciplines • Decompose and allocate system and box-level requirements to FPGA specifications. • Architect solutions targeting FPGAs against requirements and implement those solutions on FPGA platforms. • Map FPGA simulation work products to system-level requirements and capabilities • Review product specifications, and generate system and module-level block diagrams, flow diagrams, and design concepts • Refine and enforce consistent firmware development processes across FPGA designs. • Lead teams of engineers generating the FPGA design solutions. • Ensure the FPGA simulations verify performance, then integrate and test the FPGA on the circuit card assembly. • Lead the full life cycle development and integration of VHDL into different families of FPGAs. • Experience coding in VHDL and modeling algorithms, simulating, and integrating multiple FPGA-based modules • Lead the bench-level system integration with hardware, software, and other FPGA designs • Support proposal efforts and early stages of the program to define detailed system requirements • Support the planning and execution of project plans, design reviews and production release of modified or new product documentation • Support qualification and production test in the event of test failures • Support customer with use and troubleshooting of fielded products • Provide mentoring to younger engineers • Ability to obtain a Security Clearance.
