We're looking for a Firmware Development Engineer. In this role, you'll be responsible for: developing multiple aspects of firmware development, firmware validation (including test development), and Pre-Silicon simulation environment development. This role involves working with various partners to enhance and improve graphics functionality, stability, and performance on upcoming integrated and discrete graphics devices. The ideal candidate will approach development opportunities from a validation mindset; having a passion for understanding all of the aspects of system design and proactively thinking about how to break the system as a means for coming up with solid stable designs. The candidate will also be expected to provide internal and external feedback to teams on ways to improve our GPU hardware, software, and development processes in order to help Intel achieve its goal of becoming the world's leader in GPU technology.

This role is eligible for 100% remote work, however, may require travel up to 12 times/year.

This role is also eligible for our hybrid work model from either Folsom, Santa Clara, Austin, Redmond, or Toronto, with a lower travel expectation.
