Company Profile

AFRY is a leading European company with a global reach in engineering, design, and consulting. We are accelerating the transition to a sustainable society.

We are 19,000 dedicated experts in industry, energy, and digitalization, creating sustainable solutions for future generations.

Job Description

We are looking for someone who wants to join AFRY and work primarily with our clients in the defense industry. The demand for expertise in FPGA is growing, and we need to expand our team. 

Our clients are global players in high-tech defense and security operations, active in air, land, and naval defense, civil security, and commercial aviation. They offer their clients effective solutions for surveillance, security, and decision support, as well as for threat detection and protection. Technologically, they are leaders in many areas and develop products and systems to deliver military capabilities, protect national security, and safeguard critical information and infrastructure.

To succeed in this role, it is important to be able to work in a structured manner and follow formal processes, as the development work is often security-critical. Regarding the development itself, you will primarily work on the design and, potentially, the verification of FPGAs. You are a key part of the development of the client’s future products. In this role, you will also be involved in other aspects of the development process, such as systems engineering, requirements management, testing, and delivery.

Qualifications

As a person, you are communicative and creative, with a curiosity for new and exciting challenges. You also enjoy sharing ideas and collaborating with colleagues. You’ll have the opportunity to make your mark on the team’s success and deliver cutting-edge solutions. In your day-to-day work, you’ll contribute to a positive work environment and a strong sense of teamwork.

Since this position involves work subject to defense secrecy, you are required to complete and pass a security clearance process that includes a background check. 

To succeed in this role, you have:

  • A solid background with more than 3+ years of experience in FPGA development and/or verification—preferably both.
  • Strong knowledge of VHDL, and preferably also Verilog and/or SystemVerilog
  • Experience with multi-clock domains
  • Strong written and spoken proficiency in Swedish and English is required.
  • Swedish citizenship
  • Residence in Sweden

Experience in the following areas is a plus:

  • System design
  • Test bench design
  • Work in security-classified operations
  • IP block configuration and verification
  • Backend work involving timing and optimization, Place & Route
  • Experience with sampling and high-speed interface design
  • UVM or other test frameworks and test methodologies
  • Lab experience

 

Additional Information

At AFRY, you’ll have the opportunity to develop in an inspiring and innovative environment where you can grow both professionally and personally. We value our employees’ well-being and offer secure employment with excellent benefits. AFRY has a strong focus on professional development, and we provide both internal and external training so you can continue to grow in your field. 

We also offer: 

  • A secure position with a collective bargaining agreement and competitive salaries.

  • Opportunities for personal and professional development through AFRY Academy or external courses.
  • Access to Club AFRY with activities such as ski trips, yoga, and cultural and sporting events.
