AI Systems Software Engineer - Neuromorphic Computing

About The Organization

As part of Intel's CTO Office, you will join a vertically integrated incubation effort dedicated to bringing Intel's neuromorphic technology innovations to market. Our diverse team of engineers and researchers has pioneered sparse, event-based neuromorphic architectures over multiple generations and is now focused on commercializing the technology in future Intel and partner products

For nearly a decade, Intel's Neuromorphic Computing Lab, together with a global ecosystem of 250+ research groups, has explored architectures, algorithms, and software inspired by the brain's extraordinary efficiency, scalability, and adaptability. Our Loihi series of research chips pioneered event-driven, sparse, and massively parallel neuro-inspired processing, fueling over 100 peer-reviewed publications that validate the promise of this novel approach.

Join the team defining and implementing Intel's product-grade neuromorphic AI software stack. In this role, you will develop and validate systems software that enables Intel neuromorphic accelerators, spanning device interfaces, operating system integration, runtime APIs, simulation environments, and integration with higher-level AI and application frameworks. You will collaborate with hardware, software, and solution architects to deliver robust, efficient, and scalable software that enables customers to build high-performance physical AI applications powered by Intel's neuromorphic technology.

• Design, develop, and validate system-level software for future neuromorphic accelerator platforms, including device-driver interfaces, operating system integration, runtime APIs, and simulation environments.
• Analyze functional and performance issues across software drivers, runtimes, and applications; implement improvements and develop supporting profiling, debugging, benchmarking, and validation tools.
• Collaborate with hardware, architecture, operating-system, and application teams to enable upcoming platform features, recommend hardware and software improvements, and ensure expected functionality and performance on next-generation systems.

• BS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline.
• 5+ years of industry experience developing and validating production software for GPUs, AI accelerators, embedded devices, or other hardware platforms, including work across device drivers, runtime systems, APIs, simulation environments, or application frameworks.
