Job Description
A co-op term with Intel of Canada’s Non-Volatile Memory Solutions Group. is a challenging and rewarding experience, allowing you to gain knowledge and experience in design and test of IC and module products for the next generation of Solid State Drives (SSDs). As a member of our Systems Engineering team, you will work alongside experienced engineers to solve new and interesting problems, making an important contribution to our exciting high-performance SSD projects.

Embedded system development positions in the following areas are available:

Firmware – As a Firmware Engineering Co-op you will contribute to the code that runs the show! Implement embedded firmware and test advanced algorithms that manage SSD activities, improve performance and add new capabilities.

Firmware Test – As a Firmware Test Engineering Co-op you will work with the Firmware Engineers to test firmware as new features are developed. Find firmware bugs and make the SSD more robust!

Digital Design/Validation – Be a part of the development of the “brain” of the SSD! Gain an understanding of the digital logic, and help to develop and validate new controllers for future products. Use FPGAs to prototype new systems.

Error Correction Codes (ECC) Design / Verification – Engage your problem-solving skills to develop the latest innovations in cleaning up memory defects. Solutions encompass firmware, software and RTL to deliver complex algorithms that are proven to protect data from corruption. Expect a steep learning curve when contributing to ECC in the newest SSD controllers.

Hardware – Get hands-on experience with Solid State Drives (SSD) electronics! Work with the most advanced lab test equipment to electrically validate our SSD products that feature leading edge analog and digital circuitry.
