As innovators in advanced power conversion and storage systems, we support our utility and industrial customers by solving their toughest electrification challenges and accelerating their transition to a sustainable, carbon-neutral future. GE Vernova's Power Conversion & Storage business works closely with customers in energy-intensive industries. We focus on delivering integrated electrical systems, a strategy aligned with three major macrotrends: energy security, energy storage, and industrial electrification.

Job Description

Key responsibilities:

Define FPGA architecture for:
- Real‑time communication and control loops.
- Power electronics–specific functions (PWM, gating, protection, measurements).
- Partition functions between FPGA, MCU/DSP, and other devices considering latency and determinism.
- Select appropriate FPGA families and IP for timing‑critical and safety‑related functions.
Develop synthesizable RTL (VHDL) for:
- PWM generators (e.g., carrier‑based, space‑vector, multi‑phase, interleaved, dead‑time insertion, synchronised to grid or rotating frame).
- Real‑time communication interfaces (e.g., synchronous serial links, fieldbus/industrial Ethernet PHY interfaces, deterministic point‑to‑point links, custom high‑speed serial).
- Signal and clock reconstruction blocks (e.g., digital PLLs, phase tracking, clock domain crossing, resampling, and timestamping).
- Measurement, protection, and monitoring logic (e.g., overcurrent, overvoltage, desaturation, fault latching, fast trips).
Implement:
- High‑resolution timers and counters for gating signals.
- Clock, reset, and synchronization schemes for multi‑board/multi‑FPGA systems.
- Fixed‑point digital signal processing as needed for filtering, estimation, or modulation.
Develop testbenches and simulations to verify:
- PWM timing accuracy, dead‑time behavior, and jitter performance.
- Real‑time communications latency, robustness, and error handling.
- Correct operation of signal/clock reconstruction (phase tracking, frequency changes, grid disturbances).
Perform static timing analysis and timing closure for:
- Tight real‑time constraints (fast control loops, sub‑µs reaction times).
- Multiple clock domains and asynchronous interfaces.
Support lab and field testing:
- Board bring‑up and system integration.
- Debugging under real operating conditions using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, current/voltage probes, and protocol analyzers.
Create and maintain documentation:
- FPGA specifications, timing budgets, and interface definitions.
- Verification plans, test reports, and release notes.
Support production and field updates (JTAG, in‑system programming, secure and fail‑safe update mechanisms).

Your Profile:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Information Technology, Computer Engineering, or a related field, with a focus on FPGA or digital hardware design.
Several years of professional experience in FPGA design, preferably in real-time, control, or power electronics applications.
Strong proficiency in VHDL and a solid understanding of synthesizable RTL design, timing constraints, and clock domain crossing techniques.
Hands-on experience with at least one major FPGA vendor toolchain.
Experience with time-critical logic such as PWM generation, high-resolution timers, or communication interfaces.
Fluency in English is required; German is a plus.

Key Competencies:

Strong problem‑ solving skills in time‑critical and safety‑related systems.
High attention to detail, especially regarding timing, jitter, and protection logic.
Ability to collaborate with control, power electronics, hardware, and firmware teams.
Clear communication of complex timing and architecture decisions.

We offer:

Company bound by a collective bargaining agreement with 35 hours/week and 30 days of vacation
Flexible working time arrangements
On-site canteen in Berlin
Welcome Days for the perfect start in a global company
