Hardware Engineer (R&D19)

Digital Hardware Engineer Platforms Digital Hardware Engineers are part of a team dedicated to research and development of state‑of‑the-art edge-computing platforms designed to become trusted building blocks on which most of the new generation Datalogic products will be based.
Main duties and responsibilities of a Platforms Digital Hardware Engineers are: to contribute to define detailed requirements of new edge-computing platforms, starting from higher level requirements provided by Datalogic Business Units to design and develop new edge-computing platforms in accordance with predefined project requirements and in collaboration with BSP-SW engineers and the other involved R&D, Procurement, Advanced Manufacturing Engineering and Quality teams to scout and evaluate novel technologies and electronic components suitable to develop new edge‑computing platforms to design electrical schematics and to support layout design and simulations of PC Bs to design FPGA-based subsystems of edge-computing platforms and to implement them through VHDL programming to contribute to define the validation-test plans assuring full coverage of all requirements of electronic boards under development to perform measurements and functional tests on prototypes and alpha/beta samples of the designed boards, by using the needed instruments and equipment to debug prototypes and alpha/beta samples of the designed boards to take care of technical documentation of design, development, and test activities to support Advanced Manufacturing Engineering team in implementing and optimizing mass‑production processes of boards based on the developed edge‑computing platforms to support Procurement team in material-cost-reduction activities related to the developed edge‑computing platforms to support program managers to estimate effort required to carry out assigned tasks and to keep updated project plans, facilitating monitoring of own task progress to embrace innovation culture of our Company, contributing to generate invention disclosures and to scout/evaluate novel and differentiating technologies.
Requirements: Education: Master’s Degree in Electronics Engineering or Computer Science Engineering Languages: Italian and English (intermediate or better) Experience: more than five years of hands-on experience in design, development and validation of digital boards featuring processors with external memory buses and high-speed data‑transfer interfaces Specific Skills: Good command of digital systems based on microprocessors (mandatory) Good command of CAD tools for schematic entry (mandatory) Good command of laboratory instrumentation for electronic board testing (mandatory) Good command of CAD tools for PCB signal integrity analysis (highly preferred) Good command of high-speed data-transfer interfaces (highly preferred) Good command of FPGA programming through VHDL (highly preferred) Good command of C/C++ programming languages (highly preferred) Good knowledge of Linux operating system (preferred) #LI-IC1
