Job Area:

Engineering Group, Engineering Group > ASICS Engineering

Push the boundaries on features and performance.

Qualcomm Technologies Audio products are designed to offer premium wireless connectivity, high levels of integration, immersive sound quality, and on-device AI for smart audio and context aware applications. An ultra-low power subsystem within a low power SoC; a chip-within-a-chip HW block incorporating multiple always-on IP's, design execution within this group requires solving ground-breaking challenges and multiple power domain crossing issues.

As we pioneer new and/or improved functionality, we innovate to minimize power consumption.

Minimum Qualifications:

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

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

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

You have experience leading projects and the full SOC process.

Verification tasks will include:

  • Contribute to core verification during the pre/post silicon phase of next generation ASICs through simulation

  • Project lead

  • Drive test plan development, execution and verification closure in conjunction with the design and verification teams

  • Contribute to creating/maintaining a test bench, assertions, and functional coverage models with scalability and reuse as key goals

  • Contribute to implementing flows to automate development processes. Identify areas for improvement and drive them to completion

  • Lead complex debug activities through the development cycle (pre and post-silicon)

  • Provide technical supervision to other engineers and have the ability to lead by example

  • Work closely with design to define verification methodology, Provide test plans and develop required tests.

Specific responsibilities will be a function of project and team needs and may vary over time.
