Cambridge. You will be part of the team that owns our FPGA prototyping platform, working closely with the design, verification and software teams to validate our chips before silicon. You will contribute to all aspects of prototyping, from RTL adaptation and multi-FPGA partitioning through synthesis, timing closure, platform bring-up, interface boards and debug.This is a full-time role based in our Cambridge office with an expectation of full-time office attendance. You must be eligible to work in the UK.About Raspberry PiFounded as a charity in 2008 and selling its first computer in 2012, today Raspberry Pi is two separate organisations in two locations:• Here at Raspberry Pi Ltd, we build best-selling computers, microcontrollers, and supporting software for industrial and embedded customers as well as home users worldwide.• Raspberry Pi Foundation is a charitable enterprise dedicated to enabling all young people to realise their full potential through computing.Key ResponsibilitiesWe are looking for someone to perform the following tasks:• Targeting ASIC technology to FPGA technology, including memory translation, clocking/gating, and cell mapping.• Partitioning of large SoC designs across multi-FPGA prototyping platforms, such as Synopsys HAPS and Siemens proFPGA, using high-end AMD/Xilinx devices.• Platform bring-up, test and debug.• Build and maintain prototyping flows across ProtoCompiler, Synplify and Vivado, automated with Tcl and Python.• Integration of high-speed interfaces such as PCIe, LPDDR and Ethernet.• Diagnose platform issues with design, verification and software teams.• Define and test interface boards for FPGA prototype platforms• Work with Synopsys, Siemens, Cadence and other EDA vendors on tool issues and requirements.
Requirements & SkillsRaspberry Pi values pragmatic, independent thinkers who are comfortable engaging both with external customers and partners and with internal stakeholders at all levels of seniority. We operate a highly collaborative work environment, and the right candidate will need excellent interpersonal and communications skills. In addition, candidates should have:• 5+ years’ commercial FPGA experience, including prototyping complex SoCs or CPUs.• AMD/Xilinx Vivado flow using high-end devices (UltraScale+ or Versal).• Ideally, hands-on experience with Synopsys HAPS.• SystemVerilog RTL, and ASIC/SoC development flows.• Scripting in Tcl and Python.• GIT version control environment• Clear communication and good documentation habits.It would also be great if you have:• Synopsys ProtoCompiler and Synplify.• Used simulation and debug tools such as VCS, Questa and Verdi.• Prototyped Arm or RISC-V CPU subsystems.• Embedded Linux bring-up on FPGA platforms.• Experience with other FPGA prototyping platforms, such as Siemens proFPGA or Cadence Protium• Board-level bring-up and debugging experience
In addition, we offer the following benefits:● Employer pension contributions of 8% if the employee contributes 4% of their gross salary into the company salary sacrifice pension plan.● Life assurance of 4 times base salary.● Income protection of 75% of base salary in the event of critical illness, commencing after 13 weeks of long term illness or absence from work.● Private medical insurance, medical history disregarded.● Access to our Electric Vehicle Salary Sacrifice scheme, subject to eligibility.
