I korthet

Qualcomm is looking for a Sr Staff Engineer to design, scale, and harden CI/CD infrastructure and verification systems for their AI Software stack. This deeply technical role involves building large-scale automated pipelines, integrating embedded hardware testing, and driving efficient validation at scale.

Ansvarsområden

  • Architect and scale large-distributed CI/CD systems with high throughput and low flakiness.
  • Design automated workflows: build, package, deploy, flash, run, log-collection, triage, dashboarding.
  • Develop scheduling/orchestration layers for thousands of HW-based regression tests.
  • Implement monitoring, telemetry, and automated mitigation for CI stability.
  • Develop embedded target test frameworks across DSP/NPU.
  • Automate flashing, provisioning, power/reset, and new chipset bring-up.
  • Design hardware-in-loop validation for stability, thermal, long-run correctness, and performance.
  • Own coverage strategy for throughput, correctness, memory behavior, and runtime scheduling.
  • Develop automated triage signals and failure classification systems.
  • Eliminate flakiness and nondeterminism in HW test environments.
  • Maintain CI/verification pipelines for internal and open-source projects.
  • Enforce PR gating, reproducible builds, artifact management, and API correctness.
  • Influence DevOps, firmware, and platform teams using data-driven insights.
  • Lead technical deep-dives on CI and embedded HW failures.
  • Align infrastructure capabilities with program milestones and customer requirements.
  • Produce high-quality documentation for CI architecture, HW frameworks, and best practices.
  • Drive continuous improvement and streamline reproducible HW testing workflows.

Krav

  • 10+ years in CI/CD engineering, verification, embedded systems, or runtime/toolchain development.
  • Expertise designing/scaling CI/CD (Buildkite, Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions).
  • Deep experience integrating embedded hardware into automated pipelines.
  • Background in firmware flashing, device provisioning, power/reset automation, and board-farm debugging.
  • Strong scripting/programming in Python, Bash, C/C++.
  • Experience maintaining open-source verification pipelines.
  • Strong debugging across runtime/driver/inference layers.
  • Ability to influence cross-functional engineering teams.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or related field and 6+ years of Hardware Engineering, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience.
  • Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or related field and 5+ years of Hardware Engineering, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience.
  • PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or related field and 4+ years of Hardware Engineering, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience.

Önskade kvalifikationer

  • Familiarity with Qualcomm AI stack (QNN, QAIRT, SNPE).
  • Experience with heterogeneous compute validation (DSP/GPU/CPU/NPU).
  • Background in silicon bring-up or hardware-in-loop systems.
  • Experience with large device-farm operation and automation.

Förmåner

  • Competitive annual discretionary bonus program
  • Opportunity for annual RSU grants
  • Highly competitive benefits package designed to support your success at work, at home, and at play.
