Spain Hybrid

Indra Group is hiring a Firmware FPGA Engineer

About the Role

Join a forward-thinking team developing high-performance firmware for satellite applications in low Earth orbit (LEO). This role centers on designing, simulating, and validating FPGA solutions using Intel and Xilinx platforms, with a strong emphasis on digital signal processing and embedded system integration.

What You'll Do

  • Design, implement, and verify firmware for Intel and Xilinx FPGAs, ensuring reliability through simulation and testing
  • Develop test benches and apply rigorous verification methods to validate complex logic and timing behavior
  • Integrate custom IP cores into System-on-Chip (SoC) environments, including platforms like MicroBlaze, NIOS, and Zynq
  • Work with high-speed digital systems involving frequency converters and multi-domain clocking architectures
  • Implement DSP components such as filters and FFTs, optimizing for resource usage and performance
  • Use oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and other lab tools to debug and validate hardware behavior

What We're Looking For

  • Proven background in FPGA development using Intel and Xilinx devices
  • Strong grasp of simulation workflows, test bench creation, and verification techniques
  • Experience with embedded SoC architectures and integration practices
  • Knowledge of high-frequency digital systems and clock domain management
  • Hands-on familiarity with DSP implementation on FPGAs
  • Proficiency with test equipment for signal analysis and debugging
  • Fluent English communication skills

Nice to Have

  • Experience with MPSoC or RFSoC platforms
  • Familiarity with modern FPGA families like Xilinx Versal
  • Understanding of best practices in embedded SoC design and deployment

Why This Matters

You’ll contribute to mission-critical systems in space-based Position, Navigation & Timing (PNT), secure communications, Earth observation, and space domain awareness. Your work will support long-term projects with international reach, built on stable, future-focused technology.

How We Support You

  • Flexible working hours to support work-life balance
  • Hybrid work model with locations across Spain
  • Direct, open communication in a team-driven environment
  • Access to continuous learning through Open University and Udemy for Business
  • Annual reviews and ongoing feedback to guide professional growth
  • Opportunities to engage in projects throughout Spain and internationally
