I korthet

Qualcomm is seeking a Staff SoC Infrastructure/NoC, Power & Performance Validation Lead for its AI Accelerator Platform in San Diego. This role involves ensuring end-to-end silicon quality through pre- and post-silicon validation, focusing on content quality, system-level validation enablement, and developing scalable automation frameworks. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in digital design, on-chip interconnects, and analyzing SOC bus architecture, performance, and power, with a strong background in embedded systems and programming languages like C, C++, and Python.

Ansvarsområden

  • Develop, validate, and scale system-level test content across HW and SW boundaries.
  • Develop thorough performance validation plans, factoring in Performance-Power trade-offs.
  • Analyze SOC Bandwidth, QoS, Latency and Throughput.
  • Evaluate AI inference and training workloads for optimal throughput, latency, memory bandwidth, and power-performance efficiency.
  • Contribute to methodology development for performance characterization, benchmarking, and KPI tracking across product generations.
  • Create performance dashboards, reports, and technical reviews.
  • Design and implement drivers and test content.

Krav

  • BS or MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
  • 7+ years of experience in silicon validation, or platform bring-up.
  • Expertise in Interconnect architectures - NoCs, AXI, AHB etc.
  • Ability to write programs to stress interconnect transactions for appropriate coverage.
  • Solid expertise in various FIFO designs and related performance/functionality aspects.
  • Thorough understanding of Memory hierarchy and caches - coherency, consistency (ordering), memory types and attributes, synchronization & semaphores, full-system concurrency, MTE, MPAM.
  • Thorough understanding of CPU and DDR concepts, Multimedia, GPU, Peripherals.
  • Knowledge of System low power modes, Dynamic clock and voltage scaling operations, Interrupt architecture.
  • Experience with Debug architecture - interactions with JTAG based debuggers, state dump scripts.
  • In-depth debugging experience for Complex HW and SW issues.
  • Experience working with Perfmon architecture - performance counters, telemetry data, and hardware/software co-optimization.
  • Drive correlation between pre-silicon models, emulation platforms, and silicon performance measurements.
  • Experience in embedded systems/expertise in C, C++, Python and assembly languages.
  • Logical thinking and problem-solving ability with focus on Power, Performance and SoC System feature validation.
  • Fundamental understanding of Static, Leakage and Dynamic power in a semiconductor design.
  • Familiarity in debug tools including JTAG and kernel debuggers.

Önskade kvalifikationer
