My Client who are a large Multinational Defence company are looking to recruit a number of Contract engineers to perform various engineering activities across their many disciplines. One such discipline is for a Principal Firmware Engineer. As a Firmware engineer will work with the support of experts in their field, using world-class facilities to deliver Firmware for complex digital systems that meet challenging future customer requirements. What you really must have: Design tools such as Xilinx, TCL, Verilog, System Verilog and UVM FPGA architectures such as Xilinx 7. Xilinx UltraScale; Intel (Altera) or Microsemi (Actel). Fast interfaces such as PCIe, Ethernet, and JESD is also required. Auto-generated code using model driven engineering using Matlab and Simulink tools Derivation of detailed Firmware requirements and architecture from system requirements A structured approach to firmware design (RTCA DO-254 or similar) Cryptography and anti-tamper techniques Artificial Intelligence including machine learning and genetic algorithms Electronics test methods and equipment Good verbal and written communication skills Working in mixed discipline teams HNC/HND or Undergraduate Degree (Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, AI, Games Programming, Physics, or Applied Physics) or you may just have lots of skills and experience gained through your hard work. Due to the nature of our work, any candidate must have 5 years UK residency and be capable of achieving full SC security clearance.
