Embedded SDE, FPGA ML Accelerator , Annapurna Labs

Annapurna Labs builds high-performance hardware and software solutions used in AWS data centers globally. We're looking for an Embedded Software Development Engineer with a focus on FPGA accelerator systems. As an Embedded SDE, you will be responsible for delivering embedded software solutions, driver development, and system bring-up for FPGA-based accelerators. A successful candidate will have an established background in embedded software development, hardware/software interfaces, a strong technical ability, excellent project skills, great communication skills, and a motivation to achieve results in a fast-paced environment.

As a member of the Accelerator Systems FPGA team, you'll develop embedded software and drivers that enable customers to run hardware acceleration on AWS. You'll gain knowledge of our data center infrastructure, including technologies like AWS F1/F2 and how they enable hardware acceleration in the cloud.

You will own large scale deployments in a continuous effort to deliver a world-class customer experience. This is a fast-paced, intellectually challenging position, and you'll work with multiple technology areas. You'll have high standards for yourself and everyone you work with, and you'll be constantly looking for ways to improve our products' performance, quality and cost. We're changing an industry, and we want individuals who are ready for this challenge and want to reach beyond what is possible today.
