KRUSH Labs is developing cutting-edge wireless communication and sensing systems that push the boundaries of performance and reliability. Our technologies address some of the most challenging problems in modern wireless engineering, including long-range communication, high data rates, low latency, interference resilience, and multipath environments. This creates unique opportunities to research, design, and implement next-generation radio and radar systems.
We are looking for an experienced Radar Design FPGA Engineer to join our dynamic team. In this role, you will be responsible for developing and maintaining robust FPGA design and verification flows, while defining strategies to ensure the performance, quality, and reliability of our FPGA-based systems. You will work on software/hardware co-design solutions and contribute to cutting-edge radar development projects. Leveraging your expertise in Verilog/SystemVerilog, FPGA/VLSI design, and modern verification methodologies such as Cocotb, you will help deliver high-quality solutions from concept through deployment.
As part of this role, you will be a member of the broader FPGA and verification community within KRUSH Labs, collaborating with experienced engineers to continuously improve our design, verification, and development methodologies.
Key Responsibilities
