Jobs at Fidus Systems

Lead and deliver BSP-level embedded software for communication, networking, and video applications. Develop device drivers, kernel configs, and Yocto/PetaLinux build flows; integrate and debug FPGA SoCs with hardware using schematics and lab instruments; set architecture and provide technical leadership, mentor teams, and work with customers. Remote with ~20% travel.

Lead and contribute to embedded software development for communication, networking, and video applications. Develop BSP software, device drivers, kernel configurations, and build systems for embedded Linux, RTOS, and bare-metal platforms. Integrate software with FPGA SoCs and hardware, debug using laboratory tools, define system architecture, and provide technical leadership and mentorship. Collaborate with clients and cross-functional engineering teams to deliver maintainable, high-quality products.

Designs and delivers complex high-speed electronic systems from architecture and schematic capture through prototype bring-up, validation, certification, and production support. Responsibilities include high-speed circuit and PCB design, simulations, signal-integrity collaboration, testing, documentation, customer support, and technical mentoring. The role requires expertise with FPGA-related hardware, advanced protocols, lab instrumentation, and tools including OrCAD/Cadence.

Manage multiple complex electronic-system development projects from scope through delivery. Coordinate distributed, cross-functional technical teams, customers, Sales, suppliers, and internal management while owning scope, schedules, budgets, resources, project reporting, technical negotiations, and process improvements. Projects span FPGA/DSP, hardware, embedded software, verification, signal integrity, PCB layout, and mechanical design across industries including aerospace, communications, computing, medical, and automotive.

Lead multiple complex electronic product development projects from scope through delivery. Coordinate distributed cross-functional teams across hardware, FPGA/DSP, embedded software, verification, signal integrity, PCB layout, and mechanical design. Manage scope, schedules, budgets, resources, customer communications, technical negotiations, and process improvements while partnering with Sales, customers, suppliers, and technical leads.

Owns block- and system-level verification for ASIC and FPGA designs, including test planning, UVM and formal environments, assertions, constrained-random testing, behavioral models, coverage closure, regression automation, and debugging. The role leads multiple verification projects, collaborates with designers and architects, reports progress, and advises external clients on verification strategy. Work is fully remote with possible domestic and international travel.

Own complete RF subsystems from architecture through characterized, manufacturable hardware, including frequency planning, transmit and receive chain design, RF modeling, microwave component selection, digital signal-path configuration, PCB layout collaboration, calibration features, and laboratory verification. The role supports communications, radar, SatCom, GNSS, software-defined radio, and other client applications, while providing technical leadership and customer interaction.

Design and deliver complex FPGA and CPLD systems using RTL, integrated IP, simulations, timing closure, and lab debugging. Collaborate with clients and cross-functional engineering teams on architectures spanning video, communications, storage, signal processing, and other advanced applications. Support design reviews, prototype demonstrations, documentation, technical estimates, proposals, and customer implementation. The role requires strong FPGA tool-flow expertise, communication skills, and customer presence.

Design and deliver high-speed electronic systems from architecture through bring-up: schematic capture, component selection, simulations (LTSpice), SI/PI collaboration, PCB constraints (OrCAD/Cadence), prototype lab verification, test plan development, regulatory certification, documentation, and mentoring junior designers.

Design and deliver complex FPGA/CPLD systems: define architectures, implement RTL, integrate IP, run simulations, close timing, support lab bring-up/debug, perform customer demos, and produce documentation and estimates.

The PCB Layout Designer will create high-speed, multi-layer PCBs, collaborating with teams on design, manufacturing compliance, and emerging technologies.

Lead Signal Integrity and Power Integrity analysis for high-speed electronic systems, collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure design compliance and performance.
