As a Software Engineer within the Design Creation and Debug group, you can expect to work on Intel's System-on-Chip integration tool, Platform Designer, PSG's FPGA Debug Environment Tools such as SignalTap and System Console, and Eclipse-based Nios Embedded Software Development Suite. The goal of this team is to make implementing powerful embedded hardware systems a straightforward and enjoyable task from design creation through debugging and performance optimization. The team is responsible for the full stack of these tools, GUI, model, and OS specific device drivers.

We have the fortune of interacting in the highly dynamic space in between programmable hardware and embedded software; designing tools and infrastructure to empower design engineers in both realms.

As a Software Engineer in this position, you will need to be an excellent Java programmer with specific experience and interest in creating Java desktop applications with backend cloud scaling. Some larger projects we're undertaking include:

-Enabling cloud scaling of backend modeling algorithms
-Inventing better ways to visualize and interact with complex hardware
systems
-Enabling precise system interconnect manipulation and automatic
optimization
-Developing mechanisms for customers to identify design bottlenecks
and optimize hierarchy

Our work is varied and ranges from user experience, software architecture, modeling, cross-language interaction, drivers and even RTOS enablement with plenty of opportunity to play anywhere in-between. We've assembled an energetic team of quality people and are looking for a couple more experienced programmers to help with the effort.

The software engineer will have a direct influence on our customers and the adoption of our products, with tasks including the following:

-Work closely with developers across software and embedded
engineering to ensure we develop design flows that meet our
customers' needs
-Guide software release content, and serve as a liaison with the support,
field, marketing, and product planning organizations
-Research, define, and validate key customer use cases and design flows
-Use Intel FPGA design tools like our customers to identify usability and
productivity problems or missing features
-Utilize the Platform Designer system design tool and accompanying
software toolchain for Intel's Nios soft processor and ARM-based SoC
solutions
