Senior Middleware Development Engineer

Intel Intel · Semiconductors · Oregon, Hillsboro, United States +1

This role focuses on developing and optimizing communication libraries (Intel SHMEM, MPI, oneCCL) for high-performance computing (HPC) and AI systems, particularly for supercomputers like Aurora. The engineer will work on low-latency, high-bandwidth software for Intel GPUs and CPUs, collaborating with scientists and engineers to advance scientific computing and machine learning.

What you'd actually do

  1. Design, develop, and maintain features and optimizations primarily focused on Intel SHMEM (Shared Memory Access) with potential to contribute to Intel MPI (Message Passing Interface), MPICH, and Intel oneCCL (Collective Communications Library)
  2. Optimize software for exceptional performance: low latency, high bandwidth, and maximum reliability
  3. Build expertise with cutting-edge Intel GPUs and CPUs powering today's data centers
  4. Collaborate directly with scientists and engineers on the Aurora supercomputer at Argonne National Labs
  5. Make meaningful contributions that advance scientific computing and machine learning capabilities
