Ask HN: Who is hiring? (October 2019)

Intel (Quartus FPGA compiler) | Toronto, ON, Canada

Interested in working on algorithmically-complex C++ code to squeeze out every last bit of performance? Actually using advanced computer science knowledge outside of interviews and programming competitions? Optimizing graph-based algorithms simultaneously for runtime, memory, and quality of the resulting solution? Understanding the hardware as well as the software? Then working on Quartus, Intel's compiler for FPGAs, is for you.

You will work in a downtown Toronto location, with an amazing and diverse group of talented engineers, on some of the most intellectually challenging problems in the world, and your work will directly benefit areas like AI, telecommunications, healthcare, aerospace, finance and more.

I am looking to hire specifically for the Timing Analysis team, which is responsible for one of the most critical components in the Quartus compilation flow (all compilation decisions are ultimately aimed at making the resulting FPGA design faster, and to determine the impact of various decisions on speed you need a robust and efficient timing engine). My colleagues are hiring for other roles. Canadian citizens or Permanent Residents preferred.

Please feel free to ask any questions here in comments, or send a resume to evgeny dot osovetsky at my company name dot com.

Is there any part time internships available? I am a second year in undergrad with strong mathematical intuition and interest for research.

FasterFPGAs · 6 years ago

Part-time - not really, but if you're available for a full-time 12 to 16 months internship (and have the legal right to work in Canada) please get in touch.

What kind of experience are you looking for?

FasterFPGAs · 6 years ago

Ability to reason about and optimize algorithms and data structures (graphs, trees, etc) is key. C++ knowledge/experience strongly preferred. Other than that, it would be good to have some understanding of hardware / computer engineering concepts, but it's not required - that can be learned on the job. We're hiring at different experience levels, from fresh undergrads to experts - for my specific position I would prefer someone who has done at least a couple of years of similar work, but as I mentioned there are several groups hiring.

What's the compensation like at Intel in Toronto?

FasterFPGAs · 6 years ago

I don't have any specific numbers to share (and in any case it depends on the grade level you're hired at), but it's definitely competitive (including excellent benefits - some of which are quite unique, e.g. covering some of the costs of part-time graduate studies for those who choose to pursue them).

VISA?

FasterFPGAs · 6 years ago

As far as I know, visa support is only provided in exceptional circumstances (e.g. PhD in an area directly related to FPGAs / exact fit for a specific, hard-to-fill open position). This is for the Toronto office, our other offices may have different policies.

Is production ruby/rails experience really a hard requirement for your backend positions? Do you see on-the-job learning as ineffective?

I've been looking over GitLab's jobs for at least a year, but nothing for the Python programmer in sight...

I love how this pairs the rigorousness of Haskell with the pseudoscience of astrology. Y'all are probably much better programmers than me. I wonder - do you believe in astrology? This is super interesting!

Any interest in hiring a remote software engineer who is less than full time (with obviously less benefits)? As I'm very interested in what what you guys seem to be building.
