Jobs at Mission Technologies, a division of HII (Now Hiring) — 451 open — Page 20

Job Description

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., OneSpin 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. 

This posting is used to gather applications for both current and future opportunities within HII – Mission Technologies. Positions are being filled on an ongoing basis and additional roles are expected to open throughout the year. As new opportunities become available, applicants will be reviewed, and qualified candidates will be contacted regarding next steps.

Essential Job Responsibilities

• Candidates for this position will contribute to reverse engineering efforts on systems of interest and support the development of innovative solutions.
• Successful candidates will be expected to communicate clearly and effectively, and demonstrate the ability to design maintainable approaches to complex technical problems.
• Candidates will develop models, transactors, stimuli, monitors, and test benches for simulating and uncovering hidden behaviors in gate-level digital netlists.
• Candidates will be expected to produce clear documentation and test cases demonstrating identified bugs or deviations from the specification.
• Effective collaboration with teammates to produce cohesive results and create improved processes is required.
• Candidates must be U.S. citizens and be willing and able to obtain a DoD security clearance (if not already cleared).
