Senior FPGA IP Solutions Engineer – Robotics Technology

Job Description: Altera is seeking a talented Senior FPGA IP Solutions Engineer to join the Robotics Technology Group in Marlow, UK. This hands‑on role focuses on the design, verification, and delivery of high-performance FPGA IP and solutions that enable next-generation robotics and industrial automation systems. Working within a small, highly technical team, you will develop reusable RTL IP for sensor ingestion, data pre‑processing, fusion pipelines, and real‑time compute accelerators for robotics use cases. Your primary ownership is the RTL IP and the low‑level software interface (HAL / driver API) that exposes it—covering micro‑architecture, RTL implementation, simulation, timing closure, and Quartus Prime / Platform Designer integration. You will also maintain a clear awareness of how that IP fits into the broader system and solution stack, collaborating with software and systems engineers on reference designs and customer‑facing robotics platforms. This role emphasizes deep FPGA IP and HAL craftsmanship—high‑performance RTL, verification and simulation, and clean low‑level APIs—while requiring enough system‑level awareness to integrate cleanly into end‑to‑end robotics solutions. Key Responsibilities FPGA IP Design perform functional simulation and regression of IP and subsystems - Drive static timing analysis (STA), timing closure, clock‑domain crossing (CDC) correctness, and constraint quality - Debug designs through simulation, SignalTap / on‑chip debug, and lab bring‑up as required - Contribute to design examples, simulation models, and technical documentation for internal and customer use Design Infrastructure
