AMVETS Jobs

SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars. SR. FPGA/ASIC DESIGN ENGINEER (SILICON ENGINEERING) At SpaceX we're leveraging our experience in building rockets and spacecraft to deploy Starlink, the world's most advanced broadband internet system. Starlink is the world's largest satellite constellation and is providing fast, reliable internet to millions of users worldwide. We design, build, test, and operate all parts of the system - thousands of satellites, consumer receivers that allow users to connect within minutes of unboxing, and the software that brings it all together. We've only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink's potential global impact and are looking for best-in-class engineers to help maximize Starlink's utility for communities and businesses around the globe. We are seeking a motivated, proactive, and intellectually curious engineer who will work alongside world-class cross-disciplinary teams (systems, firmware, architecture, design, validation, product engineering, ASIC implementation). In this role, you will be developing cutting-edge next-generation FPGAs and ASICs for deployment in space and ground infrastructures around the globe. These chips are enabling connectivity in places it has previously not been available, affordable or reliable. Your efforts will help deliver cutting-edge solutions that will expand the performance and capabilities of the Starlink network. RESPONSIBILITIES: Design digital ASICs and/or FPGAs for Starlink projects, implementing complex SoC blocks and SoC integration tasks Analyze architectural trade-offs based on features, performance requirements and system limitations Define micro-architecture, implement or integrates design blocks using Verilog/SystemVerilog and deliver a fully verified, synthesis/timing clean design Participate in all phases of ASIC and/or FPGA design flow (e.g. synthesis, timing closure, formality check and ECOs) Participate in silicon bring-up for blocks owned BASIC QUALIFICATIONS: Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering or computer science 5+ years of experience working with ASICs or FPGAs PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE: Ability to solve complex problems including clock domain crossings and power optimization ASIC/SoC system integration experience Experience with high reliability design and implementations Experience with advanced silicon process and technology nodes for high speed and low power consumption Software design and development skills Excellent scripting skills (csh/bash, Perl, Python etc.) Experience with EDA tools such as HDL simulators (e.g. VCS, Questa, IES), HDL Lint tools (e.g. Spyglass) and FPGA tools (e.g. Xilinx Vivado, Altera Quartus II) Ability to work in a dynamic environment with changing needs and requirements Team-player, can-do attitude and ability to work well in a group environment while still contributing on an individual basis Enjoys being challenged and learning new skills COMPENSATION & BENEFITS: Pay range: ASIC/FPGA Design Engineer/Senior: $160,000.00 - $220,000.00/per year Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience. Base salary is just one part of your total rewards package at SpaceX. You may also be eligible for long-term incentives, in the form of company stock, stock options, or long-term cash awards, as well as potential discretionary bonuses and the ability to purchase additional stock at a discount through an Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
