Our award-winning culture embraces a bold vision of where technology can take us and a passion for tackling challenging problems with industry-first solutions. We believe that when people feel a sense of belonging, they can be more creative, innovative, and thrive at all points in their careers.

Keysight is looking for a highly motivated FPGA / RTL Design Intern (VHDL / Verilog / SystemVerilog) to join our engineering team and contribute to the development of high-performance FPGA-based systems.

This role is ideal for candidates passionate about low-level hardware design, working close to silicon, and building real digital systems used in advanced test and measurement solutions.


Responsibilities


  • Design and implement RTL for FPGA-based systems using VHDL, Verilog or SystemVerilog
  • Develop and execute testbenches for functional verification
  • Work with FPGA toolchains (Xilinx Vivado, Intel Quartus) from synthesis to implementation
  • Integrate, debug and validate designs on real FPGA hardware (e.g. Zynq, RFSoC or similar platforms)
  • Analyze and optimize designs for timing closure, latency and resource utilization
  • Collaborate with engineers on signal processing, high-speed interfaces and system integration

Qualifications


  • Currently pursuing a degree or master’s in digital electronic, Electrical Engineering or a related field
  • Hands-on experience with FPGA development
  • Experience writing RTL (VHDL, Verilog or SystemVerilog)
  • Experience with simulation and testbench environments (ModelSim, QuestaSim or similar Simulators)
  • Familiarity with FPGA tools such as Vivado or similar
  • Experience implementing and validating designs on real FPGA hardware

Candidates must be able to demonstrate at least one end-to-end FPGA project beyond coursework
(design → simulation → implementation → validation)

Nice to have:

  • Knowledge of AXI / AXI4 / AXI-Stream interfaces
  • Experience with SoC FPGA platforms (Zynq, RFSoC)
  • Background in signal processing, DSP or RF systems
  • Experience with timing closure and optimization
  • Programing languages: Python, C++
  • Hands on experience working in HW set-up and debugging

Additional information:
This role does not offer visa sponsorship. Candidates must have the right to work in Spain at the time of application.
