Ethernet System Integration Engineer

Join an enthusiastic team of engineers in Intel's Central Engineering Group (CEG), within the Custom ASICs Development Group (CADG), focused on enabling and integrating the next generation of programmable Infrastructure Processing Units (IPUs) and Foundation Network Interface Card (FNIC) product lines. As a System Integration Engineer, you will work across the firmware and hardware elements of the 200G/400G/800G/1.6T Ethernet PHY subsystem. Working closely with major cloud service providers and Intel's silicon, hardware, firmware, and software development teams, you will help deliver customized IPU- and FNIC-based solutions that enhance isolation, security, performance, storage, and system management for customers. This role also includes driving feature-request processes, developing new solutions, and debugging internal and external customer issues.

Responsible for the overall design and development of systems and solutions that integrate software, firmware, board, and silicon/SoC components for a specific segment with specific focus on customer requirements and implementation limitations throughout the systems lifecycle. May also be responsible for systems architecture and definition, including translating the business opportunity into use cases and developing the product specifications for required hardware and software needed to deliver system requirements. Leads design, analysis, and implementation of component level choices across the integrated systems on performance, features, and cost including technical risk assessment and emphasis on ease of use, reliability, security, availability, maintainability, sustainability, and quality based on system or platform architecture specifications. Defines systems implementation and integration solutions and plans to ensure optimum performance and reliability across hardware and software that comprise the system. Delivers end-to-end technical solutions to solve customer problems, deploying solutions, executing benchmark tests, and preparing documentation. Collaborates with other teams to analyze next generation requirements and opportunities and may influence and guide research and academic collaboration on systems and solutions, including proof-of-concept and solutions beyond current industry approaches. Guides and conducts lab experiments of proof-of-concept innovations and new feature feasibility studies. Simulates real life environments in the lab and analyzes performance of prototypes.
