Description For Senior FPGA Engineer

Freeform is deploying software-defined, autonomous metal 3D printing factories worldwide, bringing software scalability to physical production. Our technology stack uses advanced sensing, real-time controls, and data-driven learning for fast, cost-effective, flawless parts production. As a Senior FPGA Engineer, you'll architect, design, develop, and integrate critical systems using Xilinx Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC for the first production-scale, fully automated metal 3D printing factory. You'll drive innovation, maximize development speed, and maintain excellence. 3D printing experience isn't required; we seek smart, motivated, collaborative engineers who love solving hard problems. You'll develop FPGA logic components, implement custom algorithms and controllers, work on embedded Linux applications, use IP components in FPGA design, and work with development boards and in production. Join us in Hawthorne, CA, in a 35,000 sq ft facility with open spaces for collaboration, R&D, and production. We offer an inclusive culture, significant stock options, full benefits, and competitive salary ($140,000-$250,000) based on experience and skills.
