职位详情
关于这个职位
As a Staff Silicon Engineer at Qualcomm, you will be part of the post-silicon application team, bringing up Serdes IP on SoCs for internal and external customers. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to support integration, validation, and bring-up of high-speed interfaces in advanced nodes (7nm, 5nm, 3nm, 2nm). This role requires strong debugging skills, embedded C/C++ and Python experience, and expertise in high-speed IP such as UCIe, DDR, PCIe, or Ethernet.
最低要求
Bachelor's degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field and 4+ years of Hardware Applications Engineering or Hardware Design experience or related work experience.
OR
Master's degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of Hardware Applications Engineering or Hardware Design experience or related work experience.
OR
PhD in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of Hardware Applications Engineering or Hardware Design experience or related work experience.
工作职责
Be part of growing team to work closely with Post-Silicon Validation, Firmware, System, and Design teams to bring-up Alphawave Mixed-Signal IPs on customer platforms. You will also be involved in the post-silicon bring-up of our in-house test chips.
Drive technical communication to customers from silicon bring-up to production.
Collaborate with architects, hardware designers, validation and software teams to define and implement robust solutions.
Work on system-level debugging with in-house SW and FW diagnostics and tools.
Occasional interaction with lab equipment (oscilloscopes, BERTs, protocol analyzers) to analyze PHY performance.
Occasional travel may be required.
You will be reporting to the Director of Application Engineering
