Join ADT and build advanced FPGA systems solving challenging real-world problems in signal processing and communications.

30th October, 2026

Mandatory Requirements

Applicants must have the right to live and work in Australia and must hold, or be eligible to obtain and maintain, a minimum NV1 Australian Government Security Clearance.

About Us

Advanced Design Technology Pty Ltd (ADT) is a privately owned Australian engineering company that designs, develops and manufactures advanced electronic systems.

We work on technically challenging problems where performance matters. Our engineers develop real hardware and firmware, taking ideas from architecture and simulation through to integration, test and deployment.

We are growing our FPGA engineering capability and are looking for an engineer who enjoys solving difficult technical problems, understanding how things work at a low level, and turning complex requirements into working hardware.

The position is based in Fyshwick, Canberra. Relocation assistance within Australia may be available for the right candidate.

The Role

As an FPGA Engineer at ADT, you will work as part of a small multidisciplinary engineering team developing sophisticated FPGA-based systems for communications, signal processing and advanced electronic systems.

You will have the chance to work across the complete FPGA development lifecycle: architecture, RTL development, simulation, implementation, timing closure, integration, verification and hardware debug.

The technologies you may work with include:

- Real-time digital signal processing;
- High-performance FPGA processing architectures;
- High-speed ADC/DAC and data-converter interfaces;




- Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking;
- 5G, emerging 6G, communications and surveillance technologies;
- DDR4 and high-speed memory architectures;
- 56 Gbps+ SERDES and high-speed serial interfaces; and
- DisplayPort, USB and other high-bandwidth digital interfaces.
