Do you enjoy challenging digital design verification problems?

Do you enjoy tinkering and learning how things work?

HII Mission Technologies (HII MT) is seeking talented engineers who are excited to work in a flipped engineering environment. Our team in Roanoke, VA specializes in reverse engineering and microelectronics trust and assurance.

HII Mission Technologies is seeking out-of-the-box thinkers who can uncover difficult-to-activate corner-case bugs and vulnerabilities in the gate-level netlists of FPGA and ASIC designs.

Candidates for this position will contribute to the team by utilizing industry-standard functional verification tools (e.g., Questa, VCS, Verdi), logical equivalence tools (e.g., One Spin 360EC), and proprietary software tools to verify design function and integrity. Common verification targets include embedded processors, DSPs, filters, transceivers, data links, systems-on-chip, and decoders. Experience in the cybersecurity, electronic warfare, encryption, radar, and/or satellite communications domains is a plus.

• Contribute to reverse engineering efforts on systems of interest and support the development of innovative solutions.
• Communicate clearly and effectively, and demonstrate the ability to design maintainable approaches to complex technical problems.
• Develop models, transactors, stimuli, monitors, and test benches for simulating and uncovering hidden behaviors in gate-level digital netlists.
• Produce clear documentation and test cases demonstrating identified bugs or deviations from the specification.
• Collaborate with teammates to produce cohesive results and create improved processes.
• Must be U.S. citizens and be willing and able to obtain a DoD security clearance (if not already cleared).

• United States citizen with ability to obtain and maintain a DoD security clearance (Secret-Top Secret/SCI)
• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
• Experience with modern digital verification and modeling languages:
  System Verilog, System
  
  C, C/C++, Matlab, etc.
• Directed, constrained-random, and assertion-based verification techniques at the gate, interface, and transaction levels
• Experience with modern, commercial-grade, functional simulators (e.g., Xcelium, Incisive, Questa, VCS, Riviera-Pro, etc)
• Writing scripts for batched verification tasks:
  Python, Bash, Tcl, make files.
• Revision control systems for maintaining, sharing, and deploying code:
  Perforce, git, SVN, etc.
• Familiarity with debugging and isolating issues with gate-level netlists
• 5 years relevant experience with Bachelor's in related field; 3 years relevant experience with Master's in related field

• Already possess an active Top Secret security clearance and/or be eligible to obtain a higher-level clearance as required
• Familiarity with object-oriented, embedded, assembly, or machine code programming
• Software or hardware reverse-engineering (e.g., IDA Pro, Ghidra)
• FPGA design or…
