Anyone knows more about PSG, part of Alterra merged into Intel?

Hows the environment like? Mind to share?

PSG is Alterra. Intel bought over Alterra in 2015. Now they are known as Intel Programmable Solutions Group producing FPGA and Custom logic/SoC products.

As for the environment, you will get different answers from different people regarding it unless you can be more specific on what you trying to know/find out. Generally, I would say it has a good working environment.

Short answer yes. you are able to jump between departments although not immediately. Once you are converted from GT to permanent, you are required to stay within that department for a minimum of 1 year.

Unless you are able to provide more details regarding your roles/team. Its hard to elaborate for you what each job entails. My advice is just take up whichever offer that align with your strongest skillset currently. Heres an overview on what skills are usually needed for the major engineering teams in Penang that may help you decide.

Pre-silicon Front-End RTL/Logic Design and Validation (Relevant teams include PCH Front-end team, IPG SIP team, DDG Atom core design and validation team, PSG Custom logic design team) - SystemVerilog/Verilog, Perl, Linux and Shell Scripting.

Pre-silicon Back-End Design and Validation (Relevant teams include PCH Physical/Structural Design team, DDG Atom core SD team, PSG SD team) - Common VLSI knowledge (Stuff like Static timing analysis, clock tree synthesis, etc) You will be working on stuff like Floorplanning, partitioning, place and route and layout. If you are unfamiliar with these terms, google them. Basic scripting skills (Perl/Python) and Linux.
*
rclxub.gif oh god seems like a long learning curve.
Eventually they sent out WorkDay application as a Functional Validation Engineer.
The team will be under IPG.

Based on what I heard from my Hiring Manager, my team is sandwiched in between Front and Backend.
The job scope is quite new, also not really familiar with, due to the uni and industrial gap.

But again really test out 1 year see is I can sink or float lah.

Since industrial IC field jobs, seems very vast and in depth.
Maybe start low from Validation Engineer, slowly can work up to IC design or not? sweat.gif
Hopefully, Intel Malaysia is inclusive, tolerant, and understanding on the current situations for fresh graduates who don't know their strengths or position in their playing field, and Intel can cultivate a pathway for us and further drive our passion in this field. sweat.gif

􀀀 Creates emulation/Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) models from a Register Transfer Level (RTL) design using emulation/FPGA synthesis, partitioning and routing tools.
􀀀 Develops hardware and software collaterals and integrates it with the emulation/FPGA model.
􀀀 Tests and debugs the emulation/FPGA model and collaterals.
Develop methodology/tool flow for running system tests/SW application/boot OS on emulator.
Experience or knowledge in FPGA design and simulation in VHDL/Verilog; knowledge in standard emulator
flow (Cadence Palladium, Synopsys ZeBu or Mentor Veloce) will be a plus.

Qualifications:
Electronic, Electrical, Computer Engineering or similar engineering degree
􀀀 Digital design
􀀀 Combinational, Synchronous (state machines), Asynchronous
􀀀 Hardware Description Languages (Verilog, System Verilog or VHDL)

True, I'd say working environment varies greatly according to business nature (i.e RnD vs Sales vs Manufacturing vs Validation) as opposed to different groups within Intel

Hey Chipz do you have the Intel Shuttle Bus Service route?
I'm planning to stay around D-Piazza's area. I'm not sure will it reach me or not.

So far survey:
- D-Piazza's Condo
- Arena
- Elit Heights
- Mahsuri Square

So far I heard it is not operating sweat.gif

When it was operational, the shuttle outside of the office area is mainly factory buses and follows the timing of the production floor.
Are you required to work in office now? Most of the design and development jobs are operating remotely, except those which requires lab access, or on specific request basis.

For Graduate Trainee position, if you do well, you might get converted to a permanent role before the 1 year contract is up.
If no permanent position is offered towards the end of the contract period, the contract could be extended or you'll be opened up to other groups/departments for hiring on a permanent basis.
Your JD seems related to Emulation, which in my opinion, should be exciting and has plenty of headroom to grow and innovate.

My manager seems like recommend me to be in office.
He worries I might not catch up, and I will fall behind 2-3 months if I move in during June/July.

As I'm from KL, I am still looking for a place to settle in an accommodation issue, since I don't have a car.
And I might need to give up like RM 500/month just for a ride to work, if I can't find a car pooling service.

Salary ranges for different grades varies between each department. But this is a rough estimate for a typical engineer at intel malaysia that you can take with a grain of salt. Info is based on rumors or stuff you can dig from the internet.

Grade 3 / Graduate Tranee : RM 3k+
Grade 5: 4.5k+
Grade 6: 6k +
Grade 7: 7.5k+
Grade 8 (Manager level): 10k +
Grade 9 (Technical lead / Senior managers): 5 figures
Grade 10 (Principal engineer / Director): 5 figures
