Operating within an ISO 9001-certified quality framework, the business places strong emphasis on design excellence, continuous improvement and close technical collaboration with customers.

The role

As a Senior FPGA Engineer, you will play a key technical role within the in-house R&D team, taking ownership of FPGA and SoC design activities across the full development lifecycle. This is a hands‑on position with influence over architecture decisions, technical direction and the adoption of new technologies.

Key responsibilities

• Lead and contribute to the architecture, design and implementation of electronic hardware projects across multiple domains, including broadcast, ProAV and medical
• Define and specify FPGA / SoC architectures aligned with system-level requirements
• Design, implement and optimise FPGA / SoC solutions using VHDL
• Perform and oversee FPGA testing, verification and validation in a laboratory environment
• Support debugging and integration activities alongside hardware and software teams
• Explore, evaluate and introduce new technologies within R&D and research programmes
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to more junior engineers where required

What we’re looking for

• Master’s degree in Electronic or Electrical Engineering
• Senior‑level experience in FPGA development (typically 5+ years), ideally within video and/or image processing
• Strong, hands‑on expertise in VHDL, including design, simulation, verification and debugging
• Working knowledge of C and experience interfacing with microcontrollers
• Exposure to board-level design (schematics, PCB layout, bring‑up) is a strong advantage
• Comfortable operating with technical autonomy and contributing to architectural and design decisions
• Strong passion for technology and engineering excellence
• Clear communicator with a collaborative, team‑oriented mindset
• Ability to work across disciplines and contribute to a high‑performing engineering culture

Languages

• Good working knowledge of English or French

What’s on offer

• A dynamic, technically driven environment that values diversity, expertise and innovation
• Competitive salary package with a comprehensive range of benefits
• A structured career development and continuous learning programme
• The opportunity to work on cutting‑edge, low‑latency video and imaging technologies used in demanding applications

If you’re a senior FPGA engineer looking for a role with technical depth, autonomy and long‑term product impact, we’d love to hear from you.
