FPGA Emulation Engineer

Location: Bengaluru, India

Experience: 6–10 Years

Role

Join our silicon engineering team to develop and deploy FPGA emulation and prototyping platforms for next-generation SoCs. You will enable early software bring-up, accelerate pre-silicon validation, and drive first-pass silicon success.

What You'll Do

Develop and maintain FPGA emulation and prototyping platforms for complex SoCs.

Convert ASIC RTL into FPGA-ready designs, including partitioning, synthesis, implementation, and timing closure.

Enable pre-silicon software bring-up, system validation, and hardware/software co-debug.

Drive FPGA implementation, multi-clock design closure, and FPGA-specific RTL optimizations.

Debug complex SoC issues using waveform analysis, hardware instrumentation, and lab validation.

Collaborate with RTL, Design Verification, Architecture, Embedded Software, and Post-Silicon teams to resolve system-level issues.

Develop automation to improve FPGA build, debug, and deployment efficiency.

What You Bring

6–10 years of experience in FPGA Emulation, FPGA Prototyping, or SoC Bring-up.





Robust hands-on experience with Verilog/SystemVerilog, FPGA implementation, synthesis, place & route, and timing closure.

Experience with FPGA prototyping/emulation platforms such as HAPS, ProFPGA, ZeBu, Palladium, Veloce, RUMI, or equivalent.

Robust understanding of SoC architecture, clock/reset design, memory subsystems, and high-speed interfaces.

Hands-on experience with one or more protocols: PCIe, DDR4/DDR5, LPDDR4/5, AXI, APB, Ethernet, USB, JESD204B/C, CXL.

Proficiency with FPGA development tools such as Vivado, Synplify, Quartus, Libero SoC, and simulation/debug tools including VCS, Verdi, Questa/Xcelium.

Experience with scripting using Python, Tcl, or Perl for flow automation.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with ASIC Emulation, hardware/software co-verification, and pre-silicon validation.

Exposure to embedded firmware bring-up and system-level debug.

Robust debugging, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
