FPGA Test/Validation Engineer

You will succeed if...

• You have training in Electronic, Automation, Telecommunications, or Industrial Engineering
• You have experience in VHDL
• Proficiency in VHDL simulation tools (ModelSim/QuestaSim)

We will also value...

• Experience with EN50128/50126/50155 standards and the V-Model Life Cycle
• Experience with XILINX FPGA families and the VIVADO development environment.

• A close and collaborative working environment. We look after your arrival from day one. We want you to feel part of the team and for your integration to be natural and fast.

• Cutting-edge technology. You will be part of a company that develops leading solutions in transport and mobility. You will be in direct contact with innovations that are transforming the railway sector globally.

• Real work-life balance. We believe in flexibility: hybrid remote work model, flexible hours, and intensive working days every Friday of the year and during the summer. We want your professional and personal life to fit together without friction.

• Benefits that add up. You will enjoy meal vouchers, remote work assistance, and a complete flexible benefits plan (languages, medical insurance, childcare, transport...). You choose how to enhance your well-being.

• Continuous professional growth. We are an expanding company and you will integrate into international projects of high technological value. You will work with diverse clients, partners, and teams that will drive your development. Additionally, we encourage training so that you can advance toward your goals.

• Stability and future. You will join a solid business group, with more than 100 years of history and a clear vision for the future in the field of sustainable mobility.

At CAF Signalling, we connect people in a safe, fast, and comfortable way to promote sustainable mobility at any distance.

At CAF Signalling, we are creating an extraordinary team!

If you are passionate about innovation, motivated by working in international environments, and want your work to have a real impact on people, society, and the environment, this opportunity could be your next big step.

At CAF Signalling, the technological subsidiary of the CAF Group, we drive the future of mobility by developing advanced solutions for rail transport. We create systems that ensure the safe circulation of trains, automatic driving technologies, and smart tools that optimize transport efficiency worldwide.

Join a team that combines cutting-edge engineering, global vision, and a clear purpose: transforming mobility to make it safer, more sustainable, and more connected.

At CAF Signalling, you will be part of a multidisciplinary team of about 10 people for the development of a common electronic platform for the entire CAF Group.

Mainly, you will be responsible for the validation of FPGA designs used in safety-critical railway products (SIL2 / SIL4):

• Analyze FPGA design requirements alongside the design team
• Draft test protocols, create simulation environments and testbenches based on behavioural VHDL, and execute FPGA design simulation tests
• Drive the continuous improvement of validation processes, maximizing automation, efficiency, and test repeatability.
• Ensure traceability between requirements, tests, and results, as well as managing change control
• Analyze results and prepare reports
• Identify and report bugs, analyze their causes, and collaborate with the design team on their resolution
• Involvement in audits and technical certification processes.

Alternatively, in another CAF Signalling workgroup, you will participate in the design and implementation of FPGAs used in safety-critical railway products (SIL2 / SIL4):

• Analyze system requirements and define FPGA architectures.
• Design and develop RTL modules in VHDL.
• Analyze and resolve bugs detected during simulation, integration, and testing
• Prepare technical documentation related to design and implementation.
