Sr Engineer, Peripheral Validation

About the Role

Qualcomm pushes the boundaries of what's possible to enable next-generation experiences and drives communication and data processing transformation. As a Qualcomm ASIC Engineer, you will define, model, design, optimize, verify, validate, implement, and document IP (block/SoC) development for high performance, high quality, low power products. Engineers collaborate with cross-functional groups to determine product execution path.

Key Responsibilities

• Leverages advanced ASIC knowledge and experience to define, model, design (digital and/or analog), optimize, verify, validate, implement, and document IP (block/SoC) development for high performance, high quality, low power products.
• Creates advanced architectures, circuit specifications, logic designs, and/or system simulations based on system-level requirements.
• Collaborates across functional teams (e.g., software architecture, hardware architecture, product management, program management teams) to develop and execute an implementation strategy that meets system requirements and customer needs.
• Evaluates all aspects of complex process flow from high-level design to synthesis, place and route, timing and power use, and verification or similarly for custom circuit design/layout flow.
• Utilizes tools/applications (e.g., RTL to GDS Flow, Virtuoso) to execute and enable advanced architecture and design of multiple complex blocks/SoC or IC Packages.
• Writes and reviews detailed technical documentation for complex EDA/IP/ASIC projects.

Requirements & Tech Stack

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 4+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.

OR

• Master's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.

OR

• PhD in Science, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master's degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science.
• 6+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
• 2+ years of experience with architecture and design tools.
• 2+ years of experience with scripting tools and programming languages.
• 2+ years of experience with design verification methods.
• 1+ year of work experience in a role requiring interaction with senior leadership (e.g., Director level and above).

Level of Responsibility

• Works independently with minimal supervision.
• Provides supervision/guidance to other team members.
• Decision-making is significant in nature and affects work beyond immediate work group.
• Requires verbal and written communication skills to convey complex information. May require negotiation, influence, tact, etc.
• Has a moderate amount of influence over key organizational decisions.
• Tasks do not have defined steps; planning, problem-solving, and prioritization must occur to complete the tasks effectively.
