Today, nearly every new server in Microsoft datacenters integrates an FPGA into a unique distributed architecture, which creates an interconnected and configurable compute layer that extends the CPU compute layer. We are currently exploring how to take advantage of these FPGA resources in a variety of projects across the lab, including large-scale graph processing, data center networking, and machine learning.

There is no closing deadline for this post. The post will be filled once suitable candidates are found so if you are interested please apply as soon as possible.

Responsibilities

Investigate software-hardware co-design techniques to improve the performance of large-scale distributed systems

Design and integrate novel network architectures and communication primitives on FPGAs

Build and experiment with hardware-acceleration platforms

Qualifications

Extensive FPGA programming experience (preferably with System Verilog)

Familiarity with FPGA tools (Altera or Xilinx toolchain)

Enrolled in a master or PhD program in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or equivalent subject

While not mandatory, experience on any of the following would be preferable:

  • Network protocols and primitives
  • Distributed Systems
  • Hands-on experience on working with oscilloscopes and electronic test equipment
  • Machine learning

In the UK we share Microsoft’s global vision to empower every person and organisation to achieve more; but we also pursue a wide range of initiatives with particular resonance and relevance to the UK. From working responsibly and sustainably to ensuring that the technology we create makes life better - not just for our customers, partners and employees, but for everyone. That’s why we are constantly investing in three key areas:

- In Education
We are born to learn.
At Microsoft, we understand the real value of technology lies in the skills it builds, the opportunities it creates, and the horizons it broadens. That’s why we are empowering the education community with a wide range of products, services and programmes that help transform learning and make it more accessible.

- In Business
We are driven to succeed.
Whether supporting start-ups and SMEs, promoting apprenticeships though our Partner network, or reimagining business productivity in radical new ways, Microsoft UK is all about ensuring today’s workplace really does ‘work’ for everyone.

- In Society
We are committed to people.
In ensuring all our products, processes and practices are safe, secure and always accessible, we're proud to work with many leading charities, businesses and organisations committed to the same high ethical standards. These are just some of the ideals we champion in spirit and action.
