Toronto, Ontario, Canada Intel Full time

Job Description

In Q4 2023, Intel announced Altera will be reported as a separate business unit beginning on January 1, 2024, with ongoing support from Intel. This position is associated to that standalone business strategy and is expected to fully transition to a standalone company at some time in the future.

The Quartus compiler placer team in Toronto is responsible for developing state of the art algorithms written in C++ that map digital circuits to our FPGA devices. We use various optimization algorithms and AI techniques to solve the placement problem. This includes analytical placement methods for global placement optimization, annealing algorithms for detailed placement refinement, and network flow solvers for hard placement constraints. The goal of the placer is to generate near-optimal results to find a physical location for every block in the user's design with reasonable runtime, while optimizing the timing of the design to help the user achieve timing closure for their target design frequency.

The role includes research, design, development, and optimization of software tools that enable the use of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA). You will be leveraging strong knowledge of FPGA hardware, logic design, board design, and semiconductor devices to accelerate designs with the FPGA for domains such as deep learning, DSP algorithms, or data analytics.

Qualifications

Relevant experience can be obtained through schoolwork, classes and project work, internships, military training, and/or work experience.

Minimum Education Requirements

BS degree in 10+ years of experience Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or related field or MS 8+ years of industry experience, or PhD 6+ years of industry software experience

Minimum Qualifications

Minimum of 8 years of C++ programming in a Linux/Unix environment. Minimum of 6 years of experience with FPGA or ASIC development flows.

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience C++ coding and development of high-performance parallel software systems Experience working in a modern large scale modular code base Experience developing EDA/CAD placement optimization algorithms for FPGAs or ASICs Experience with FPGA placement optimization approaches for analytical placement, clustering or detailed placement 2+ years' experience with Altera Quartus, or Xilinx Vivado Experience with scripting languages preferable Python, Perl or TCL
