Job Description: 

Intel Labs in Mexico is seeking a motivated student to explore and implement cutting-edge applications of Large Language Models on Intel hardware, with a special emphasis on FPGA-based solutions and engineering knowledge graphs. As part of this internship, you will be part of a small Research and Development team, that path finds next-gen technologies to improve Intel's products.

This position is with Applied Pathfinding and Prototyping Lab (APPL), within Intel Labs, which is responsible for pathfinding and prototyping full FPGA based prototypes of various cutting-edge solutions for researching future directions for Intel products and their role in the overall computing system.

Your responsibilities will include but not limited to:

• Work on pathfinding projects on how to improve the efficiency of RTL design for FPGA and ASIC flows.
• Develop FPGA-based AI prototypes leveraging Intel FPGAs (e.g., Stratix, Agilex) by investigating accelerated inference workflows.
• Work on bringing up modern LLMs on Intel hardware for local infrastructure and benchmark different model architectures for latency, throughput, and energy efficiency.

Qualifications:

Minimum qualifications are required to be initially considered for this position.

• Enrolled in Master's degree program in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related fields (at least 1 year remaining as an active student).
• 1+ years of experience with FPGA design flows (Intel Quartus or similar) and hardware description languages (VHD, Verilog or SystemVerilog).
• 1+ years of experience with machine learning frameworks (Pytorch, TensorFlow) and Python scripting language.
• Advanced English level.

The position is in Mexico, it is not eligible for employment-based visa/immigration sponsorship.

Preferred qualifications are in addition to the minimum requirements and are considered a plus factor in identifying top candidates.

• Enrolled in PhD degree program in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or related fields.
• Familiar with oneAPI, OpenVINO or similar Intel toolchains.
• Experience deploying LLMs on clusters.
• Exposure to LLM architectures and large-scale deep learning models.

Requirements listed would be obtained through a combination of industry relevant job experience, internship experiences and or schoolwork/classes/research.

A candidate who accepts an offer of employment in Mexico is required to present their own personal identification information and numbers for the following: Mexican Security Number (NSS), Tax Identification Number (RFC) and CURP identification number.
