Company:
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
Job Area:
Engineering Group, Engineering Group > ASICS Engineering
General Summary
As an ARM SoC Architect, you will work with chip architects to conceive of the system level macro-architecture of an efficient and high performance compute SoC. Your input will drive the product definition through early involvement in the product life-cycle.
Role and Responsibilities
Work with chip architects to understand architecture concept and high level system requirements
Define the SoC infrastructure architecture requirements to meet SoC as well as platform compliance requirements
Work with micro-architects and performance architects to ensure intent of the architecture is met
Must have good communication skills and able to work in dynamic environment with top level engineers and technologists
Preferred Qualifications
MS degree in Electrical Engineering; 10 years of practical experience
Knowledge of SOC architecture, especially for server products
Expertise in ARM v8 and v9 specifications and their impact to SoC system architecture
Expertise in one or more ARM SoC architecture specifications like SMMU, GIC, Coresight and Timer architecture
Expertise in ARM platform architecture specifications like SBSA, SBMR and SBSG
Strong understanding of the ARM memory model and related issues.
Understanding of major SOC interfaces like PCIE, DRAM, coherent socket to socket interfaces and related protocols is a plus.
Experience with ARM system architecture specifications like SMMU and GIC
Strong fundamentals in digital ASIC design and architecture
Physical Requirements
Frequently transports and install equipment up to 5 lbs.
Performs required tasks at various heights (e.g. standing or sitting).
Monitors and utilizes computers and test equipment for more than 6 hours a day.
Continuous communication which includes the comprehension of information with colleagues, customers, and vendors both in person and remotely.
