Description For Infra Systems Physical Architect

Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. is seeking an Infra Systems Physical Architect to join their innovative team. As a leading technology innovator, Qualcomm pushes the boundaries of what's possible in AI, Automotive, and high-performance computing. In this role, you'll be part of the Infra Systems team, designing optimized Network on Chip (NoC) solutions that are highly floorplan-driven.

The position offers an opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology, designing architectures that achieve the best possible Performance, Power, and Area (PPA) metrics. You'll be responsible for developing custom methodologies for NoC implementation, working with cross-functional teams to determine product execution paths, and ensuring optimal performance through various technical optimizations.

Your expertise will be crucial in architecture planning, analysis, and enablement of best-in-class NoCs. The role involves sophisticated technical work including physical aware synthesis, special placement strategies, optimal floorplanning, and special clocking solutions. You'll also be responsible for power planning, analysis, and implementing optimized routing techniques for reduced wire delays.

The ideal candidate will bring deep technical knowledge in ASIC design, verification, and implementation, along with expertise in scripting languages and tools. This role offers competitive compensation, including a comprehensive benefits package, annual bonuses, and RSU grants. You'll be part of a team that's driving innovation in high-end SoCs, working with best-in-class IPs like CPU, GPUs, NSPs, and Modems.

Join Qualcomm to be part of a team that's creating a smarter, greener connected future for all. You'll have access to continuous learning opportunities, mentorship programs, and the chance to work alongside leading engineering experts in the industry. The company's supportive, inclusive culture encourages innovative thinking and provides opportunities for significant career growth and development.
