Company:Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
Job Area:Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Software Engineering
General Summary:We are looking for talented and innovative software engineers to define the architecture for low level software and firmware on server SoCs. This software is part of the power, thermal and limits management solution that will ensure reliable and efficient operation of the SoCs. To define the architecture you will collaborate with systems engineers, hardware architects, and other software engineers. You will be responsible for designing a high-performance software stack and ensuring the successful, timely transition to the execution teams.
Responsibilities- Collaborate with engineers from a variety of disciplines (systems, hardware, software, etc.) to define and document the power, thermal, and limits management architecture for server SoCs.
- Represent the interests of software teams in architecture discussions to arrive at the right trade-offs in the architecture, e.g. between hardware complexity vs. software complexity, or unit cost vs. tuning effort.
- Define and document the software partitioning across the various CPUs and microcontrollers in the system; and define and manage APIs to support this partitioning.
- Drive the process of converting the system level power, thermal, and limits management architecture into a software design and software requirements that can guide the software development teams.
- Work with software teams to provide guidance on the architecture and design, to help resolve issues, and to support optimization and tuning activities.
Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 6+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience.
OR
Master's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 5+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience.
OR

3+ years of work experience with Programming Language such as C, C++, Java, Python, etc.
Preferred Qualifications:- 15+ years of experience in designing software and firmware for embedded or datacenter environments.
- Experience in power, thermal and limits management at the system level or device driver level.
- Strong expertise in modern operating systems, ARM64 architectures, and software development methodologies.
- Familiarity with software standards for power and thermal management such as SCMI, PSCI, SystemReady, ACPI, and device tree.
- Practical experience with in-lab debugging tools
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 12+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience. OR Master's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 10+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience. OR PhD in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 6+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience.
