Intel is seeking highly qualified engineers to join the "Algorithms: Crypto and Compression" team within the Systems Architecture and Engineering (SAE) group. This team specializes in developing innovative products and solutions. We are a well-established cross-site team that delivers innovative solutions that have been employed in a wide variety of Intel products. We are looking for a motivated, passionate, and talented engineer with extensive experience in optimizing software and hardware implementations of crypto algorithms. In this role, you will lead the development of highly efficient crypto hardware that will be used to accelerate targeted workloads and lead the development of highly efficient crypto software implementations using x86 assembly. You will be exposed to different hardware implementation techniques of complex algorithms and be expected to implement them in RTL (Register Transfer Level). You will be expected to develop highly optimized crypto implementations using x86 assembly as well.

Responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

• Define and write architecture/microarchitecture specifications.
• Design RTL logic using System Verilog including assertions/cover points, work with validators for design verification, synthesize the design and close timing.
• Balance design trade-offs with performance, power, area, modularity, and scalability.
• Work closely with Physical Design Engineers for floor planning activity, synthesis, and timing analysis.
• Develop highly optimized x86 assemblyDevelop hardware or software implementations of new crypto algorithms.

The ideal candidate will have the following skills in addition to the qualifications listed below:

• Highly motivated individual with a passion to learn.
• Strong problem-solving skills.
• Must be a team player with the ability to interact effectively on a technical level with others.
• Effective verbal and written communication skills.

In this position you will gain valuable experience which will allow growth and expanded opportunities within this group as well as potential future opportunities with other business groups within Intel.
