Principal Engineer - ASIC/FPGA Design -- Orion CEV Program

 

Honeywell's Aerospace business unit continues to strategically partner with other significant aerospace industry innovators in a continual effort to develop the most advanced aerospace technology in existence today.  Recently, NASA has awarded one of Honeywell Aerospace's innovative partners the historical opportunity to develop the United States space program's much publicized Orion CEV (Crew Exploration Vehicle), a new modular transportation system capable of carrying astronauts to and from the NASA international space station, and eventually back to the moon. 

 

The Electronic Hardware Center of Excellence, within Honeywell's Aerospace business unit, is currently seeking an innovative senior-level ASIC/FPGA design professional with Internet Protocol router design architect experience to work individually or as part of a team in designing and developing ASICs and FPGAs, as integrated into various electronic systems within this historical mode of space transport.

 

Work assignments will be determined by the team lead or manager and must be completed with minimal guidance.  The candidate must also provide timely and concise project reports to keep the leaders accurately apprised of the status of their assigned tasks.  Typical tasks include logic design, generating BFMs (Bus Functional Models), test benches, static timing analysis, assist in generation and review of requirements documents, traceability matrices and participating in code reviews.  Typical projects last from 1-9 months and may require some travel.  Normal off-site durations are one week but may be longer.  The hardware designed is for space applications and must meet the specific regulatory requirements to be compliant.  There are extensive documentation requirements for this position.  The successful candidate must have the writing skills necessary to successfully complete these tasks.
