Job Details: Job Description: Altera's IP Solutions Engineering (IPSE) team develops comprehensive solutions to provide customers easy and efficient access to the capabilities of Intel's FPGA devices. These solutions are provided as highly configurable intellectual property IP cores that are fully integrated with Altera's software CAD tool, Quartus Prime. We build IP cores for customized chip-to-chip interfaces such as high speed ADC/DAC tiles or leading-edge transceiver interfaces to enable Ethernet, PCIe, and other protocols. Another set of IP cores we build are to enable Memory Subsystems using External Memory Interfaces (like DDR5, LPDDR5) or High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) over a high speed NOC. These IP cores provide configurable access to these high-speed, high-bandwidth memory devices, chip-to-chip interfaces, and transceiver protocols. Most customers require some form of packet processing, storage or buffering, and thus, these IP cores become a critical component of most electronic systems. The constantly rising speed and complexity of memory devices, chip-to-chip, and transceiver interfaces presents a challenging design problem that requires system level knowledge of silicon, software, IP, and customer applications. As an IP Design Engineer, you will work with a team of engineers to develop and verify state-of-the-art Memory Interface, chip-to-chip, or transceiver-based IP cores. You will be working on advanced device architectures, design definition, implementation, and verification. You will also be developing design examples and simulation models, accompanied by a rich set of technical documentation. Your specific responsibilities will include, but are not limited to the following: Architecture and Design based on the latest protocol specifications for memory, chip-to-chip, or transceiver interfaces RTL development Device support and CAD tool integration Verification (e.g. verification IP, methodologies, frameworks, bus functional models, regression tests) Hardware power-on and debug New product release and rollout support Customer technical support The candidate should possess the following behavioral traits: Strong skills in communication, initiative, innovation, and teamwork Highly motivated to learn and adapt to fast-changing technologies and environments Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail Demonstrate fundamental values such as accountability, integrity, and a winning mindset Collaborative mindset, strong influencing skills, and a willingness to work across geographical locations. Qualifications: Qualifications You must possess the below minimum education requirements and minimum required qualifications to be initially considered for this position. Relevant experience can be obtained through schoolwork, classes, project work, internships, and/or military experience. Additional preferred qualifications are in addition to the minimum requirements and are considered a plus factor in identifying top candidates. Minimum Qualifications: The candidate must be pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Engineering, Engineering Science, Computer Science, Math, Electrical Engineering or equivalent 3+ months of experience in Digital logic hardware (e.g. SystemVerilog, Verilog and/or VHDL) design or verification 3+ months of experience in Software programming or scripting (e.g. C/C++ and/or Python) Preferred Qualifications: Familiarity with FPGA development flows and tools such as Quartus Experience working on hardware-software co-design or embedded systems projects Strong analytical and problem-solving skills Job Type: Student / Intern (Fixed Term) Shift: Shift 1 (Canada) Primary Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada Additional Locations: Posting Statement: All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, religious creed, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, physical or mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, military and veteran status, marital status, pregnancy, gender, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by local law, regulation, or ordinance.
