Job Description:

**Job Description**Join Intel-and build a better tomorrow. Intel is in the midst of an exciting transformation, with a vision to create and extend computing technology to connect and enrich the lives of every person on Earth. Join us and help us create the next generation of technologies that will shape the future for decades to come.Intel's Neuromorphic Computing Lab is pioneering a new domain of brain-inspired computer architecture defined by large parallel collections of neural processing units operating as sparsely active event-driven nonlinear dynamical systems. This technology promises orders of magnitude gains in efficiency and speed compared to conventional architectures for a large class of emerging AI workloads. While neuromorphic hardware architecture and algorithms have progressed rapidly, the development of professional neuromorphic software tools, methods, and frameworks is still at a nascent stage.We are looking for a talented software architect to help drive development of Lava, the new open source framework that re-thinks the entire software stack for the unique needs of neuromorphic computing: from programming and training to compilation and deployment to execution and dataflow. This role requires a strong familiarity with AI/ML concepts and frameworks, event-based parallel programming (e.g. actor model or communicating sequential processes), and embedded real-time systems. In this role you will work with a team of software engineers in partnership with a growing external research ecosystem contributing to the Lava framework. You will participate in the group's neuromorphic research as part of a collaborative and iterative co-development effort advancing the hardware architecture, software, algorithms, and applications. You will work closely with users and partners spanning government, corporate, and academic research groups, with the objective to prepare this technology for commercial deployment.The breadth of this group's charter and the demands for innovation call for an extremely versatile and technically strong candidate.**Qualifications**You must possess the below minimum qualifications to be initially considered for this position.
