Several intern positions (compiler, runtime, tools, Software/Hardware co-design) available at Huawei US Research Lab @ Champaign, IL

(If interested, please contact Rhiannon Clifton, University Program Manager, at rhiannon.clifton2@huawei.com)

Huawei recently opened an innovation lab in Champaign IL, looking to build a long term strategic partnership with the world class, renowned and innovative faculty and students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. We are actively seeking talented candidates -students and engineers - to build our operations in Champaign in multiple positions.

As a member of a highly talented team, you get to do creative work as well as making real impact by solving real customer problems. While the current projects include language design, compiler & JVM, and performance optimization, the lab continues to grow and expand into new domains (e.g., cloud, smart devices, IoT). As such, we are not looking for people w/ a fixed set of skills, but rather the “growth-mindset” people who have a versatile experience in the field and are not daunted by acquiring new skills. We especially welcome researchers and problem solvers.

The positions belong to the US branch of the Programming Technologies Lab of Huawei, whose mission is to innovate and leverage programming technologies (compilers, languages, language VMs, tools) to improve the performance, productivity, and quality of Huawei software.

Nice to haves:

• Because we develop programming technology for a variety of purposes, competence in a breadth of programming paradigms is a plus, such as imperative and functional programming, formal specifications, and assembly code;
• Experience with runtime system, such as memory management and concurrent task scheduling, and in newer languages like Go, Rust, Scala, and Swift;
