CPU Software Engineer staff

Qualcomm's software CPU (aka application processor) architecture group develops long-term software roadmaps (for a horizon of three to five years). It is responsible for defining architecture specifications, developing prototypes, and engaging with the software and hardware worldwide partners to influence products development. It is also acting as an operational execution team enabling commercialization of the most up-to-date worldwide CPUs integrated in Snapdragon’s chipsets for markets such as: Handsets, IOT devices, Automotive, Compute/Laptops, XR, etc.

The team is currently looking for an experienced CPU software engineer, who can contribute to design and development of low-level firmware for CPU bootstrapping, power controller etc. He or she, will specifically be engaged in the following domains:

Coordinate Design and development of firmware of boot, debug, idle and active CPU power management CPU software/hardware design trade-offs Coordinating debugging of critical SW issues that are artifacts of any high-performance CPU microarchitecture (prefetching, speculation, memory ordering etc...) Definition of short and long-term SW architecture roadmap in accordance with Arm’s architecture ISA evolution Represent the CPU SW teams in engagements with Arm architects and third-party software partners (e.g., Google, MSFT, etc.)

Since the contributions of the CPU software organization affect a large span of products, the function provides an uncommon exposure to multiple technology domains related to system-on-chip development. To fully benefit from the role’s opportunities, the candidate must demonstrate a motivation to influence the products roadmap, as he or she, will directly contribute to Qualcomm’s most innovative products.
