Our mission is to empower developers and system architects to rapidly design and deploy cutting‑edge solutions using advanced FPGA and SoC technologies.

The High Level

Synthesis (HLS) team at Altera specializes in creating sophisticated tools and compiler technologies that translate high‑level programming languages into efficient hardware implementations. Join us and help shape the future of HLS, enabling faster innovation in fields such as AI, cloud computing, and embedded systems. Assist in the development and maintenance of HLS compiler infrastructure.

Support the implementation of compiler passes and code transformations to optimize high‑level code for hardware synthesis. Analyze and improve compilation flow from C/C++ to hardware description languages. Help integrate and test new features in HLS compilers, focusing on performance and resource optimization.

Mentorship and hands‑on training from experienced compiler and hardware engineers. Competitive salary and advantages. The actual salary offered may vary based on several factors, including the position’s location, as well as the candidate’s experience, skills, training, and job‑specific knowledge.

In addition to base salary, we offer performance‑based incentive opportunities that reward both individual contributions and overall company success.
