Job description

As a Qualcomm GPU Engineer, you will be involved in architecting, designing, implementing, verifying, and optimizing the performance and power of GPU cores. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to meet customer needs and drive digital transformation. The role emphasizes hardware emulator implementation, design partitioning, and system-level debugging. You will also support chip bring-up and post-silicon debug activities.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of relevant work experience, or a Master's degree with 1+ year of experience, or a PhD in a related field.
  • 1+ years of hands-on experience in emulation/simulation acceleration/FPGA.
  • 1+ years in design validation or post-silicon debug.
  • 1+ years of experience in creating high performance and area efficient emulation environments from RTL.

Responsibilities

  • Synthesize the Verilog RTL and create models for emulators like Veloce/Palladium/Zebu and/or FPGA platforms.
  • Develop all aspects of hardware emulator implementation, focusing on design partitioning, synthesis, place and route, timing analysis, and run time performance.
  • Drive debug failures on the emulator using the latest technologies.
  • Collaborate with designers and the software driver team for test planning and debugging.
  • Work with tool vendors to improve the area and performance of synthesized FPGA RTL.
  • Integrate third-party IP and perform system-level debugging.
  • Conduct system level RTL simulation and design verification.
  • Support chip bring-up and post-silicon debug activities.

Benefits

  • Qualcomm offers competitive compensation, annual bonuses, stock programs, comprehensive healthcare coverage, retirement plans, wellness programs, parental leave, flexible work options, and professional development opportunities.
