Summary
Isaac Goss is an FPGA engineer with 10 years of hands-on experience designing, integrating, and validating RTL-based systems using VHDL and C across video, compression, Ethernet, and RF domains. He has delivered client-specific IP and glue logic, built comprehensive testbenches, and driven designs through vendor toolchains into constrained, production-ready hardware while also writing Linux and bare-metal software to exercise FPGA functionality. His background spans high-throughput RF signal processing, Ethernet MAC development, and embedded Arm subsystem integration, with practical debugging using ILAs and spectrum analyzers. Based in Pennsylvania, Isaac pairs academic training in computer engineering with a pragmatic focus on observability and reproducible validation, often recreating hardware issues in simulation to root-cause bugs before delivery.
