Role Purpose We wish to reruit an experienced VHDL engineer who has a good working knowledge of electronics, control systems, and digital signal processing. It would be advantageous if the engineer can also write basic Windows PC test harnesses as necessary to prove out developed VHDL. The role demands an engineer to be creative, analytical, familiar with development processes and have good experience of VHDL development and build tools. The candidate must have a pro-active approach and work well within multifunctional project teams. The role requires the person to actively drive design quality and performance by championing a peer review process, undertaking failure mode analysis, and planning suitable risk mitigation activities. ResponsibilitiesThe successful candidate will be responsible for the design and development of VHDL to support the development of our instruments, including:<ul><li>The VHDL design within a project and co-ordination of activities with other engineers and designers as required.</li><li>Understanding the electronics, VHDL and embedded software requirements for new instrumentation and developing a functional specification for these sub-systems.</li><li>Development and introduction of innovative designs incorporating new technologies where appropriate.</li><li>Testing of new ideas and concepts either by simulation or prototyping.</li><li>Working within an interdisciplinary project team to resolve any issues involving the VHDL systems performance, development time schedules and resourcing requirements.</li><li>Designing and analysing VHDL for complex programmable devices and systems of devices.</li><li>Driving the development of prototypes, performance and verification testing.</li><li>Supporting compliance, regulatory and quality requirements related to design activities.</li><li>Engaging in all phases of new product introduction, including concept, architecture documentation, design, prototype, test, supplier interfaces, and manufacturing introduction.</li><li>Conceptualisation, implementation and verification of complete instrument systems.</li><li>Design releases - technical product documentation.</li><li>Development of low-level diagnostic tools for engineering (and possibly service) usage.</li></ul>Process:<ul><li>Working within our product development process.</li><li>Conducting design reviews.</li><li>Producing the required level of documentation.</li><li>Driving continuous improvement of the VHDL engineering elements of our processes.</li></ul> VHDL Engineers work in a multi-disciplinary project team with other engineers; outside vendors; and individuals from other internal departments (procurement, manufacturing and marketing).A strong emphasis is placed on the ability to deliver systems to specification, on time and within their cost target.Engineers work within a structured development process designed to manage risk effectively.
