A co-op term with Intel of Canada's Intel Foundry Services group is a challenging but
rewarding experience, allowing you to gain knowledge and experience in integrated circuit
design and test, from chiplets to SoCs. As a member of our team, you will work alongside
experienced engineers to solve new and interesting problems, making an important
contribution to our exciting custom silicon solutions.


Intel Vancouver's Error Correction Codes (ECC) team is a dedicated team within the broader
ASIC team that specializes in detecting and correcting bit errors in our cutting-edge
3DXPOINT non-volatile memory. We conduct research to develop powerful ECC algorithms
to implement as digital logic on a memory controller ASIC. Currently, the ECC team is also
involved in machine learning and AI work for Intel's Data Center division. The co-op will be
trained in supervised/unsupervised learning Algos, reinforcement learning and will have to
apply these for the machine learning projects. This position will involve a steep but rewarding
learning curve.

We are looking for enthusiastic students with:

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills,
• Strong problem solving ability,
• A desire to learn and a
• General knowledge of embedded systems, digital design, software/firmware development and testing methodology

The final job assignment will be based on available projects during the work term and on the
skills and interests of the student. We encourage students with relevant work experience (other co-op terms, work
experience) to apply.
