Description
Job Area: Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Systems Engineering General Summary: As a leading technology innovator, Qualcomm pushes the boundaries of what's possible to enable next-generation experiences and drives digital transformation to help create a smarter, connected future for all. As a Qualcomm Chipset Architect, you will research, design, develop, simulate, and/or validate systems-level hardware, software, architecture, algorithms, and solutions that enables the development of cutting-edge technology. Qualcomm Systems Engineers collaborate across functional teams to meet and exceed system-level requirements and standards. Minimum Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 12+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.ORMaster's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 10+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience. Preferred Qualifications Master's Degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science or related field. 15+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience. Expert knowledge of interfaces (USB, PCIe, SD/eMMC, UFS, LPDDRx, CSI, DSI, SPI, I2C, I3C, PMBUS, SPMI, Slimbus etc) 10+ years of experience working in PC or IoT industry; Knowledge of commercial, industrial and home automation systems Experience with full product lifecycle from requirements gathering, prototype development, production, knowledge of PCB design flow, EDA tools, electrical and thermal simulations. Familiarity with software stack and hardware-software dependencies including HLOS, drivers, kernel, BIOS Familiarity with certification, shock and vibration testing and EMI compliance In depth knowledge of power delivery, PDN, component selection, tuning, PMICs, eBOM Good domain knowledge of 2 or more functional areas of SoCs such as Application Processor, Display, Graphics, Camera, Video, AI, Modem (4G/5G), WLAN, Power Management etc. Exposure to 4G/5G/6G systems and associated cellular standards (e.g. 3GPP NR, LTE). Working with a wide cross functional team comprising of various design and software teams, reliability, functional safety, business, sales and customer engineering Principal Duties and Responsibilities Applies Systems knowledge to evaluate Industrial customer asks and propose chipset solutions utilizing Qualcomm ICs. Develops and analyzes system level design including requirements, interface definition, functional/performance definition, and implementation of a new system or modification of an existing system. Evaluates interface signaling for clock, data, sideband requirements and propose solution with internal and third-party components. Evaluates signal integrity needs and identifies architecture for high-speed interfaces, topologies (stacked boards, different form factors etc), timing needs, and signal conditioning techniques. Understand power requirements and propose suitable powering schemes for the entire platform. Collaborates with own team and other teams to complete project work, including implementing and testing features and verifying the accuracy of systems. Performs functional analysis to drive requirements and specifications and to define and align with standards for hardware and software. Reviews internal and customer board schematics Develops new and innovative ideas (e.g. IDFs) for a product or feature area. Drives triage of problems at the system level to determine root cause and presents results of testing and debugging to team members. Level of Responsibility Works independently with minimum supervision. Decision-making may affect work beyond immediate work group. Requires verbal and written communication skills to convey information. May require basic negotiation, influence, tact, etc. Has a moderate amount of influence over key organizational decisions (e.g., is consulted by senior leadership to make key decisions). Tasks require multiple steps which can be performed in various orders; some planning, problem-solving, and prioritization must occur to complete the tasks effectively. Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 4+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience. OR Master's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 3+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience. OR PhD in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 2+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.
