The Cross-Domain (XD) team deliver high performance appliances for the Defensive Cyber market.

We develop from a blank sheet with security as a primary consideration, designing the whole appliance from high performance C++, embedded software, FPGA firmware(VHDL), custom PCBs, power distribution, and thermal management.

All of which has to deliver a reliable, supportable, and maintainable capability for our customers.


JOB ROLE


A Senior Firmware Engineer within the XD team can expect to be involved in the full lifecycle of product development, from concept, design, through delivery, and into support.

We predominately use Intel (previously Altera) FPGAs, with code developed usingVHDL.

As this is predominately an active hands-on role, solid experience with VHDL is a must, as is a familiarity with at least 1 modern FPGA tool chain (ideally Intel but could be Xilinx, Achronix, or similar).

As with most current FPGA designs, we make significantuse of the provided embedded blocks within those FPGAs, so any experience in integrating with these would be highly valuable.


As with most senior engineers, you would be expected to lead small teams of 1-3 junior engineers, and provide support and mentoring through their activities.
