About this job

We are currently looking for an FPGA Engineer to join the team in Delft.

You will be working within the Defence & Security business unit, where we are working on innovative solutions that leverage space technologies. You will be active in the domains of Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) and Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR). In the PNT domain we are developing antenna array technologies for various applications, for example for GNSS RF interference mitigation. In the ISR domain, we focus on developing advanced digital signal processing and machine learning algorithms for implementation on satellites. Common application areas include Defence, Space and Critical Infrastructure. This role involves defining system requirements, designing digital circuits and processing chains, and selecting and integrating FPGA and embedded system components. Additionally, software development will be important, particularly for system control and signal processing. The position also includes system design, testing, verification, and validation activities, both in laboratory environments and during field operations.

This position provides the opportunity to work and think across domains, find overlapping technologies, design innovative solutions and contribute to product development in a dynamic, high-tech organization.
