I korthet

Qualcomm is looking for a Senior Engineer in DDR Customer Engineering Software to support next-generation platforms. The role involves software enablement, platform bring-up, system validation, performance optimization, and customer support for DDR memory subsystems. The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in system software, DDR architecture, debugging, and performance analysis, collaborating across teams to resolve complex technical challenges.

Ansvarsområden

  • Support DDR enablement and platform bring-up across firmware, bootloaders, and operating system environments.
  • Investigate and resolve complex DDR-related issues including memory corruption, training failures, configuration issues, system crashes, and long-term stability concerns.
  • Perform root cause analysis of memory subsystem behaviors involving DDR controllers, cache coherency mechanisms, and system-level interactions.
  • Collaborate with customers, OEMs, and ODMs to support memory configuration, tuning, issue triage, and technical escalations.
  • Partner closely with DDR design, firmware, validation, systems, and software teams to drive issue resolution across hardware and software boundaries.
  • Analyze and optimize DDR performance, memory bandwidth utilization, latency, power consumption, retention behavior, and overall system efficiency.
  • Develop and leverage debug methodologies, automation tools, and validation frameworks to improve productivity and quality.
  • Support customer engagements and contribute to the successful deployment of Qualcomm products across diverse market segments.

Krav

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of software engineering experience, OR Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field, OR PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
