What You'Ll Do
- Design, implement, and verify RTL logic in Verilog or SystemVerilog targeting ultra-low-latency trading applications
- Develop simulation testbenches and functional verification environments to validate FPGA designs before hardware deployment
- Work closely with senior FPGA engineers and the trading infrastructure team to understand latency requirements and translate them into hardware design decisions
- Run synthesis, place-and-route, and static timing analysis; iterate on designs to meet strict timing constraints
- Participate in hardware bring-up and on-board debugging, using waveform analysis and other diagnostic tools
- Use AI tools to accelerate your development workflow — RTL review, testbench generation, debugging, and documentation
- Grow your understanding of market data protocols (Ethernet, PCIe, exchange feed formats) as they relate to the systems you build
Qualifications And Skills
- BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
- Hands-on experience with RTL design in Verilog or SystemVerilog — coursework, personal projects, or internship experience all count
- Familiarity with FPGA simulation tools (e.g., ModelSim, QuestaSim, Vivado, Quartus) and the synthesis-to-deployment flow
- Understanding of digital logic fundamentals: state machines, FIFOs, clock domain crossing, timing constraints
- Comfort working in a Linux environment; Python, basic C or C++ is a plus
- Ability and eagerness to incorporate AI tools into your development and debugging workflow
- A strong desire to learn the HFT domain — no prior finance knowledge required
- Strong analytical instincts: when something behaves unexpectedly in hardware, you dig until you find it
Why Edgehog
- Small team advantage: Direct access to founders and senior team members from day one
