FGPA: VHDL and / or Verilog

Desirable Qualifications / Skills (some or all would be viewed positively):

Advanced degrees in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or relevant technical field with 20+ years of relevant work experience
Active Top Secret clearance
Demonstrated expertise as technical lead / architect for embedded projects - conceptualizing solutions to open-ended problems, deriving implementable requirements, and conveying design intent to a broader team.
Entrepreneurial mindset - propose new ideas, processes, tools and solutions
Excel at verbal and written communication with customers and team members by providing reports, technical documentation, and guidance as well as participation in the systems engineering process including architecture selection
Microcode
Secure Boot
Design, simulate, synthesize, and test IP for ASIC and FPGA projects
Cryptographic algorithm implementation
Advanced knowledge of Roots of Security / Secure Processors. Hardware Security experience - tamper vulnerability research including hardware exploitation, side-channel attacks, fault-injection attacks, and nation-state level reverse engineering threat vectors
Assisting MTO in capturing additional business through customer interactions, proposal development, and authoring enhanced whitepapers
Authoring of software development plans
Proficiency and willingness to mentor junior technical personnel

Work Location:

Huntsville, AL: Radiance HQ or on Redstone Arsenal as needed, with the mix varying over time based on project demands
