About This Role

  • The Opportunity 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 its promise.
  • Now, we're entering an exciting new chapter: transforming these breakthroughs into real-world products that will power the coming era of physical AI systems-beyond the reach of GPUs and mainstream AI accelerators.
  • If you are passionate about pushing the boundaries of computing, from transistor-level innovation to software abstractions, join us.
  • Help define the next wave of AI technology that harnesses the proven advantages of Intel's neuromorphic computing technology with the versatility demanded by modern AI workloads.
  • Position Overview Demonstrate the value of Intel's neuromorphic technologies by developing, implementing, and benchmarking algorithms for Intel's next-generation neuromorphic architecture to enable applications in edge computing, signal processing, and autonomous systems for the era of physical AI with groundbreaking performance and efficiency.
  • This is a fixed-term opportunity lasting approximately 12 months, with the potential for extension subject to the approval of both parties.
  • Responsibilities • Support the development and optimization of advanced AI algorithms and signal processing applications for edge platforms powered by Intel's next-generation neuromorphic architecture. • Evaluate and benchmark signal processing algorithms on current and next-generation neuromorphic hardware. • Validate Intel's neuromorphic SDK by running real-world signal processing workloads, gathering metrics, and proposing targeted software enhancements to the core development team. • Present findings internally and to collaborators.
  • 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 architecture over multiple generations and is now focused on commercializing the technology in future Intel and partner products.
