As a Software Engineer within the Design Creation and Debug Group, you can expect to work on Intel PSG's System-on-Chip integration tool, Platform Designer, PSG's FPGA Debug Environment Tools such as SignalTap and System Console, and Eclipse-based Nios II 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 encompassing programmable hardware design, embedded system creation and embedded software development; designing tools and infrastructure to empower design engineers in all three 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. Some larger projects we’re undertaking include:

• Inventing better ways to visualize and interact with complex hardware systems

• Improving our Eclipse-based Software Development IDE

• Enabling precise system interconnect manipulation and automatic optimization

• Providing a framework to enable FPGA debugging applications

• Tightly integrating our tool with others in Intel’s Design Suite

Our work varies from user experience to software architecture 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.
