Full-time

xona-space

Xona is the navigational intelligence company bringing real-time, centimeter-level certainty to any device, anywhere on Earth.

With Pulsar – the world’s most advanced PNT satellite infrastructure in Low Earth Orbit – Xona will offer a future-proof, backwards-compatible global positioning system optimized for absolute precision, superior power, and robust protection.

We’re seeking a skilled FPGA Engineer to work as a contributor to the development and integration of embedded systems for our in-house satellite receivers. The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced start-up environments, and can confidently work independently and collaboratively to deliver mission-critical insights. As a member of the product team, the chosen candidate will work with our software and hardware teams to help drive the development, performance, and stability of Xona’s satellite receiver platform forward. This position focuses on FPGA development, with a particular emphasis on real-time signal processing of GNSS signals.

What You’ll Do

  • Turn advanced DSP algorithms into high-performance RTL for Xilinx RFSoC

  • Implement efficient signal processing modules (e.g. correlation, tracking, resampling…) for GNSS waveforms

  • Optimize designs for processing speed and resource usage

  • Verify designs to ensure timing closure, functional correctness, and resource efficiency

  • Develop and maintain automated testbenches and scripts to support verification and system-level testing

  • Collaborate with system, embedded software, and RF engineers to integrate and validate a cutting-edge GNSS receiver

Required Qualifications

  • Minimum of BS / BEng / BASc in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or similar)

  • 3+ years FPGA development experience in VHDL (synthesizable RTL)

  • Strong experience with HDL simulation and verification, and having the ability to thoroughly test RTL designs

  • Strong DSP fundamentals and experience implementing real-time signal processing in hardware

  • Proficiency with AMD FPGA devices and design tools such as Vivado, and simulator tools

  • Proficiency in integrating Xilinx IP (e.g. FFT, FIR filter) in hardware designs

  • Experience with Python for automation, scripting, data analysis, or algorithm development

  • Collaborative development experience with version control (Git/GitLab) and disciplined documentation practices

  • Experience with fixed-point arithmetic, timing closure, and FPGA resource optimization

Desired Qualifications

  • Curious, motivated, and excited by GNSS technology and next-generation navigation systems

  • Experience with Xilinx RFSoC or ZynqMPSoC Ultrascale+, including PL+PS integration

  • Experience with digital signal generation and high-speed interfaces (AXI)

  • GNSS or navigation signal processing knowledge (GPS, Galileo, BeiDou)

  • Testbench automation experience (Cocotb) and scripting in TCL/Python

  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and structured software engineering practices

  • Strong collaboration skills and ability to take on tasks from a growing list of priorities in a fast-paced environment
