Hi Jack,

Can you please put my name down for your items #2 (Developing HDL cores – i.e. 
JESD204B interface..) and #3 (testing new hardware). I would be interested in 
the “ working remotely” option below.

Thanks

Raoul

Hi CASPERites,

 

Here at UC Berkeley we are in the process of putting together some job adverts 
for CASPER research positions at UC Berkeley. We are hoping to advertise 
positions for those with batchelors, masters, or doctoral degrees to help 
develop next-gen CASPER tools and software/hardware infrastructure. If you are 
interested, please get in touch or and/or send a CV. 

 

We're still debating the specifics of the positions we're going to advertise 
and the level at which we should target them. This call for declarations of 
interest serves as preliminary research to help with these decisions. Obviously 
if/when jobs are officially posted I will advertise them here, and they will be 
posted on the official UC Berkeley listings.

 

Also, if there are folks who would be interested in working remotely on 
short-term, smaller, well-defined deliverables, I suspect some of our goals 
might suit this paradigm, so I'd be interested to hear from you, also.

 

Here's a preliminary description of the work:

 

The job responsibilities:

 

-- Developing the python-based toolflow backend

-- Developing new HDL cores (100 Gb Ethernet, JESD204 ADC interfaces, memory 
controllers, etc.)

-- Testing / bringing up new hardware (VCU118 Virtex Ultrascale+ board, ADCs, 
other new boards)

-- Developing embedded CPU (Microblaze) code for facilitating FPGA control / 
monitoring

-- Designing test benches / verification frameworks for libraries

-- Porting DSP libraries out of Simulink, to a lower-level language

-- Documenting the toolflow, DSP modules, and design practices of CASPER

-- Website development, wiki/github curation.

 

Desirable Skills:

 

-- Competency with linux-based operating systems

-- Experience with git

-- Software languages: Python, C

-- Hardware Description Languages: Verilog, VHDL, Simulink

-- Experience with the CASPER toolflow

-- Experience with Xilinx FPGAs

-- Familiarity with high speed networking

 

Please do get in touch if this sounds like it may be of interest!

 

Cheers

 

Jack
