The FPGA team at Napatech consists of 15 highly skilled individuals working closely together with our hardware, software and system test departments as well as our product architects. In the FPGA team, we develop advanced hardware offload engines for both our internally developed SmartNICs as well as 3rd party hardware platforms. We use traditional ASIC design and verification methodologies targeting state-of-the-art FPGA technology.We strive at being best-in-class in everything we do from the very first design concept, through specification, RTL design, module level test, system level verification and implementation.We use a proprietary implementation flow built around industry leading tools which you will be responsible for architecting and taking to the next level. The implementation flow is written in Python and Make and includes dependency management, tool interfaces as well as auto generation of various parts of our code based on several different input formats. Furthermore, we have a fully automated build system implemented in Jenkins which you will be responsible for further improving. We use extensive regressions suites to verify the functional behavior of our products and you will help us design and upgrade this allowing us to utilize the latest developments. All development is done on a Linux cluster, which you will also help us improve and architect the next version of.You have solid experience within the domain of CI/CD including Docker, Linux and best practices. Furthermore, you have expertise in scripting - especially in Python - but Make, Perl, TCL are also highly relevant. Finally, you are curious on technology and will help us move forward optimizing the way we work through new tools and methodologies automating and streamlining our workflows, allowing us to implement, test and verify state-of-the-art FPGA designs.
