Fact file

Position: FPGA Engineer Intern

Team: Software engineering

Before G-Research: University of Cambridge student, studying Electrical and Electronic Engineering

“This summer, I’ve been working on the hardware design, design verification and software integration for a new FPGA platform, with the potential to deliver speed improvements of up to six times. My day to day involves developing and debugging hardware designs and creating test benches, as well as contributing to design discussions about the future of the platform.”

“I’ve been given a lot of responsibility for the project, including taking ownership of key areas and working towards important deadlines alongside the wider team. It’s given me experience across hardware design, verification and software integration, while helping me understand how different technologies fit into the wider platform.”

“The culture is collaborative, fast-paced and deeply technical. Sitting alongside experienced engineers means I can ask questions, discuss ideas and learn from how they approach their work. My advice to anyone thinking of applying is to show what genuinely interests you – curiosity and a willingness to delve deeply into technical problems are really valued here.”
