About Us

HTIC - IIT Madras is focused on developing advanced medical imaging and real-time video
processing systems for endoscopy and other clinical applications. Our team combines FPGA
hardware design, embedded software, and image signal processing to deliver low-latency,
clinically robust products.

Role Overview
We are hiring an FPGA Design Engineer with 2–3 years of experience to design and
implement FPGA/SoC modules for production-grade imaging/video pipelines. You will work
on RTL design, video/ISP/DSP pipeline integration, and PS/PL firmware, collaborating
closely with algorithm and system teams.

Key Responsibilities
Design, implement, verify, and optimise RTL modules in VHDL/Verilog for Zynq/Zynq UltraScale+ platforms.
Develop and integrate video/data pipelines (AXI-Stream, AXI4, DMA) and ISP/DSP blocks (color conversion, filtering, scaling, denoising).
Use Xilinx Vivado for synthesis, implementation, timing closure, and bitstream generation.
Develop PS/PL firmware and system software using Vitis and Petalinux (boot flow, device tree, drivers).
Map algorithms to hardware (HLS familiarity helpful) and collaborate with IITM faculty guides and internal teams on aligned project work.
Perform simulation, FPGA bring-up, and system verification; debug using ILA, JTAG, logic analyzers, and profiling tools.
Optimise designs for latency, resource use, and power; follow medical product documentation and research reporting practices.
Contribute to lab testing, manufacturing validation, and field support.

Required Qualifications and Skills
2–3 years professional experience in FPGA/SoC design.
Strong RTL coding in VHDL or Verilog; solid synchronous digital design skills.
Practical experience with Xilinx Vivado flow and timing closure.
Experience with Vitis and Petalinux (cross-builds, device tree, kernel modules).
Knowledge of video/ISP/DSP concepts and AXI protocols.
Familiarity with DDR memory interfaces, DMA integration, and debugging tools (ModelSim/XSIM, ILA).
Comfortable in Linux environments and scripting (Python/Bash).
Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Electronics, ECE, or related discipline.

Good to have
HLS (C/C++ to RTL) experience, Vitis Vision familiarity.
HDMI/SDI or GTH transceiver experience and knowledge of video standards.
Prior exposure to medical device development or regulated quality systems.
Interest in research, publications, and academic collaboration.
