Company: QUALCOMM SEMICONDUCTORES Y SISTEMAS AVANZADOS DE BAJA CALIFORNIA Job Area: ASICS Engineering General Summary: Qualcomm’s System Validation & Emulation (SVE) team is part of the central So C validation organization responsible for ensuring end-to-end silicon quality across pre- and post-silicon phases. This role focuses on content quality and system-level validation enablement , offering deep exposure to Qualcomm So Cs through bare-metal validation content , scalable automation frameworks, and complex system debugs. Engineers in this role work across HW and SW boundaries to develop, validate, and scale system-level test content , ensuring high-quality silicon validation across a wide range of So C domains. Excellent Opportunity to work on cutting-edge So Cs across multiple product segments , including: Premium mobile and flagship platforms Data center AI Accelerator platform Role Overview: System level validation of clock, power, reset, and power-management architectures for next-generation Premium Tier MSM platforms. Drive pre-silicon and post-silicon validation of Clocking infrastructure, PMIC integration, DVFS, and low-power features across complex multi-die AI systems. Partner closely with Architecture, Design, Verification & Firmware teams to debug and root-cause power, performance, stability, and scalability issues. Define validation methodologies, stress workloads, and automation frameworks to ensure robust operation under demanding AI training and inference scenarios. Own power subsystem bring-up readiness and delivery of production-quality silicon across all program milestones An idóneo candidate combines expertise in Clocking, DVFS, Power Management, PMIC, Firmware, Silicon Bring-up, and AI/HPC platform validation Roles & Responsibilities: Own the E2 E bare metal framework validation So C clock and power architectures Validation planning – understand design changes, visualize standalone and system level test requirements and scenarios Test plan development – clearly document test strategy and dependencies Conduct validation strategy and test plan review with all stakeholders – architects, designers, verification engineers,



software engineers Develop scalable device drivers, standalone and system tests using C Debug complex issues both on pre-Si and post-Si platforms, provide debug direction Review validation platform schematics to ensure post-Si debug support – might have to work with platform design team Automate validation process – development, execution, inference using python, perl, shell Use lab instruments – multimeter, oscilloscopes , logic analyzer Efficiently collaborate with teams in different time zones – both internal and external Minimum Requirements: Bachelor’s degree in engineering (electronics, computer engineering etc.) 5+ years of relevant experience in So C validation and / or associated areas (SW development, embedded systems etc.)Prior work experience in clock/ power validation Proficient in C, Python Experienced in using lab instruments – multimeter, oscilloscopes , logic analyzers Exposure to debug tools (JTAG etc.). Knowledge of debug methodology of ARM based So Cs Very good at problem solving - analytical and debugging skills Preferred Qualifications: Prior exposure to below SW skills would add an edge above other applicants: Experience with Cross-Compilers, Linkers and makefiles Understanding of coherency and concurrency in modern So C architecture Knowledge of PMIC/ prior experience in validating rail power (power measurement tools/ setups) Knowledge of pre-Silicon validation and debug on FPGA based emulation platforms is a plus Knowledge of RTL and HDLs (Verilog/ System Verilog) would be an additional advantage Should have prior work experience in a cross functional matrix work environment 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 Ph D in Science, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
