United States onlyOne of our portfolio companies is hiring an FPGA Developer to join as an early member and help design, implement, and optimize low-level logic for their high performance networking systems. This is not a listing for an internal role at Dragonfly.
What They Are Looking For:
- Proficiency in VHDL or Verilog and experience with simulation/debugging tools (e.g., ModelSim, Vivado)
- Solid understanding of digital design concepts: state machines, pipelining, timing closure, etc.
- Familiarity with FPGA toolchains from Xilinx
- Hands-on experience working with real-time or latency-sensitive systems
- Comfortable working in a Linux-based development environment and using Git
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, especially across hardware/software interfaces
- Experience implementing mathematical functions and encryption/decryption algorithms in hardware
- Maintain and refactor existing FPGA codebases to improve performance or adapt to new requirements, including experience designing ABIs and command & control interfaces for integration with broader system components
- Exposure to high-speed I/O and interconnect protocols (e.g., PCIe, AXI, 100G/400G Ethernet)
About the Role:
- Develop, simulate, and debug FPGA code (VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog) for custom hardware
- Assist with the integration of FPGA logic into broader hardware and networking systems
- Support synthesis, place-and-route, and timing analysis workflows
- Maintain and refactor existing FPGA codebases to improve performance or adapt to new requirements
- Work with hardware and DevOps teams to deploy and monitor FPGA systems in production environments
- Contribute to hardware validation and bring-up of new boards or modules
- Document technical specifications, design notes, and test procedures
Other Roles We’re Hiring For:If this role isn’t the right fit, we’re also hiring engineers across the portfolio, especially those interested in crypto infrastructure, developer tools, or zero-to-one product builds. Many of our portfolio companies are looking for founding or early-stage engineers ready to ship and own core systems.
Process:
- We’ll confidentially match you with portfolio companies aligned with your background, skill set, and interests. If mutual interest exists between you and a team, we’ll facilitate a warm introduction.
- If there isn’t a match today, we’ll keep you top of mind for future opportunities.
Our portfolio companies are globally distributed, hiring for remote, hybrid, and in-person roles worldwide. They’re building across the entire crypto ecosystem, including DeFi, CeFi, infrastructure, L1s and L2s, creator/consumer applications, NFTs, ZK, and more.
