12 -15 years

Reports To:
Senior Director of Engineering -5G

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Technical Manager to lead our FPGA Design Group within the 5G Engineering team in Bangalore. The role involves overseeing the development of advanced FPGA-based solutions for complete 5G RU systems which include 10G/25G/100G ethernet, ORAN and other critical DL/UL signal processing components. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in FPGA design, strong leadership skills, and a proven track record in delivering high-performance solutions for 5G wireless communication systems.

Key Responsibilities & Requirements:

The role involves around 20% team management and 80% in technical involvement.

Technical Requirement:

·      Proficient in VHDL/Verilog and System Verilog for RTL design, Digital Electronics and Verification.

·      Experience in FPGA device selection/decision and resource estimation, critical timing analysis is a must.

·      Lead the FPGA engineers during complete FPGA design, development and debug cycles.

·      Architect and optimize FPGA designs using Xilinx/Altera tools to meet stringent timing, power, and area constraints.

·      Able to understand the specification / customer requirements and able to bifurcate the specification as RTL modules and software modules.

·      Should be able to understand the hardware design, schematics, embedded design and mixed signal paths.

·      Proficiency in scripting (e.g., Tcl, Python) for automation of FPGA design flows.

·      Should be able to guide the team in writing test bench and testcases to run the behavioral/timing simulations.

·      Strong understanding of 3GPP 5G NR standards and RF system (mixed signals) will be advantage.

·      Good hands on with AXI, PCIe, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, JESD204B/C protocols etc is a must.

·      Hands-on experience with MATLAB and Simulink is an added advantage

·      Should be well versed in using CRO, VSA, Multimeter, signal Analyzers and other equipment

Project Management:

· years of experience in FPGA design and development, with at least 5 years in technical leadership and management role. Able to manage a small team of 4-10 member FPGA team.

·      Other than 5G, role also involves handling other FPGA projects where the person may be fully individual contributor or may work with small FPGA team.

·      Collaborate with cross-functional teams (RF, DSP, embedded, and systems engineering) to define system requirements and integrate FPGA designs as required.

·      Develop project plans, timelines, and resource estimates, ensuring on-time delivery of FPGA deliverables.

·      Manage risks, track progress, and communicate updates to stakeholders and senior management.

·      Drive the adoption of best practices in FPGA design, including high-level synthesis (HLS), IP integration, and automated verification flows.

·      Stay updated on emerging FPGA technologies, tools, and methodologies to enhance team capabilities.

·      Interact with customers to understand requirements and present technical solutions as and when project/ situation demands.

·      Collaborate with FPGA vendors (e.g., AMD/Xilinx, Intel/Altera) to leverage new device features and resolve tool-related issues.

Soft Skills:

Ø Strong leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills to manage diverse teams and stakeholders.

Ø Ability to work in a fast-paced environment, balancing technical depth with project deadlines.

Ø Problem-solving mindset with a focus on delivering high-quality, scalable solutions.

Ø Define team goals, assign tasks, and ensure timely delivery of FPGA designs aligned with project milestones.

Preferred Qualifications:

Ø B.E/B. Tech or M.E/M. Tech

Warm Regards
