Requirements
• Working towards a degree in Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, or a related subject such as Physics or Maths. • Technical skills in C, C++ or Python, demonstrated through study, projects, hobbies or practical experience • An interest in AI compute and silicon design, including ASICs, verification, logical design, DFT or physical design, with motivation to learn EDA tools and modern design techniques • A curious, self-starting approach, with examples from activities or hobbies beyond your studies, plus clear communication and the ability to work well with others • You don’t need an engineering background to join us. If you’re curious, motivated and enjoy solving problems, we’ll teach you the skills you need. • Previous industry experience is not required. Tell us what you built or investigated through coursework, personal or team projects, hobbies or other relevant experience, how you approached it and what you learned.
Benefits
• Start date: • Application deadline: • The Internship Programme at Graphcore • Explore a career at Graphcore through a 12-week summer internship, gaining hands-on experience on real projects. You’ll bring fresh ideas, put your learning into practice and help shape what we’re creating. Along the way, you’ll tackle challenging problems with a team who welcome your questions and support you as you build your skills and confidence. • What you’ll work on • Bring your curiosity, bright ideas and problem-solving skills to the chips behind tomorrow’s AI systems. • As a Graduate Silicon Engineer, you’ll join one of our four specialist Silicon teams: logical design, verification, physical design or design for test (DFT). You’ll contribute to real chip development, learning from experienced colleagues and building your understanding of how advanced AI chips are designed, verified and prepared for manufacture. • Depending on your team, you’ll work on areas such as register-transfer level (RTL) design, SOC integration, verification methods, physical implementation or the critical role of DFT. You’ll use industry-standard electronic design automation (EDA) tools and take ownership of clear tasks, with support from experienced engineers. • How you’ll learn and grow • During the two-year programme, you’ll develop practical silicon engineering skills in the team you join, building on the fundamentals you’ve learned through your studies and projects. • Hands-on tasks will help you learn modern design techniques and use industry-standard EDA tools. You’ll build skills in areas such as RTL, verification, timing or physical design, depending on your team’s focus. • Feedback from reviews and practical problem solving will help you develop your technical judgement, explain your approach and understand how your work fits into the wider chip development process. Bring your curiosity and willingness to learn; we’ll support you as you build your knowledge and confidence. • Flexible working: Find a balance between your internship and life outside work • Flexible working: • 5 days of annual leave: Take time to rest and recharge during your 12-week internship • 5 days of annual leave: • Life in the office: Get to know your colleagues in spaces designed for collaboration, with free food, a great selection of ice cream and an on-site barista • Life in the office: • Learning and development: Build your skills and explore your interests with access to O’Reilly, our online learning platform • Learning and development: • We welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences and are committed to building an inclusive environment where everyone can do their best work.
