Senior Digital Design Engineer (FPGA)

Help Build Europe's Hypersonic Capability At Hypersonica , we’re redefining what’s possible in European defence technology. We exist to deliver speed, resilience, and technological independence at a pace that sets a new standard. We are a small, elite team working on problems that matter, and solving them fast.

By joining Hypersonica , you’re not stepping into a predefined role. You’re joining a talent dense environment where every individual shapes the direction of the company.

Our philosophy is to hire a small number of exceptional people with broad, deep technical capability, strong judgement, and the ability to operate autonomously. We hire for talent, not rigid boxes. This role represents a business need, but the way it evolves will be shaped by the individual.

If you’ve achieved what others said was impossible, or you bring a unique combination of skills that doesn’t fit a traditional mould, we want to hear from you. The work you do here directly contributes to Europe’s technological independence. What you'll do Design and implement FPGA architectures using VHDL or Verilog.

Develop digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms for real-time applications. Implement high-speed communication interfaces (PCIe, Ethernet, Aurora, LVDS, etc.) Optimize FPGA resource utilization, timing closure, and power consumption. Develop simulation environments and verification testbenches.

Integrate FPGA designs with embedded processors and hardware platforms. Debug FPGA designs using laboratory equipment and on-chip debugging tools. Collaborate with hardware and software engineers throughout system development. Prepare design documentation and maintain version-controlled FPGA projects.

Contribute to system architecture decisions and provide technical leadership within the FPGA domain. .
