About the role

Job Details Job Description: We are looking for a passionate and energetic software engineer to join our team at Altera . Altera is the pioneer of programmable logic solutions, enabling system and semiconductor companies to rapidly and cost effectively innovate, differentiate and win in their markets. Altera combines the programmable logic technology with software tools , intellectual property, and customer support to provide high-value programmable solutions to many customers worldwide.

In this role, you will be researching/designing/developing/optimizing software for Quartus , the compiler that programs all current/next generation of Field Programmable Gate Array ( FPGA) devices .

  • Quartus is used by all FPGA acceleration technologies (including High Level Synthesis, FPGA AI Suite, DSP Builder, etc)
  • At the heart of Quartus is our Place and Route engine which is responsible for transforming HDL to bits such that a user's design is optimized for area and Fmax
  • Cross-functional interactions with various customers (internal and external)
  • Best of both worlds, hardware and software:
  • Customer's hardware requirements: Fmax, throughput, timing closure and area
  • Compiler SW optimizations: runtime and memory, including abstractions and frameworks for acceleration with the FPGA for domains such as deep learning, DSP algorithms, or data analytics

As part of the Quartus team, your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

  • Developing software support for successful routing of the latest next generation FPGA devices
  • Owning various modules of the compiler from device modeling to timing closure to runtime
  • Implementing new features in addition to root-causing and fixing the existing ones, while maneuvering your way through a big code base

Our compensation is designed to reflect the Canadian labour market. The actual salary offered may vary based on several factors, including the position's location, as well as the candidate's experience, skills, training, and job-specific knowledge. In addition to base salary, we offer performance-based incentive opportunities that reward both individual contributions and overall company success.
