Description For SOC Infrastructure IP System HW Architect

Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. is seeking a talented SOC Infrastructure IP System HW Architect to join their innovative team. This role sits at the intersection of hardware architecture and system design, focusing on critical infrastructure components that power Qualcomm's cutting-edge SoCs.

The Infrastructure IP Team is a multi-disciplinary group responsible for defining and designing Platform infrastructure HW components such as Interconnect (NOC), System Cache, Memory controllers, and System MMU implemented across all Qualcomm SoCs. As an architect, you'll be at the forefront of defining next-generation SOC Infra HW IPs with ARM Architecture enabled and beyond.

Your role will involve creating hardware architectures based on product requirements and developing HW-SW interfaces that are software developer friendly. This position requires deep understanding of hardware architecture, HW-SW feature trade-offs, and complete silicon HW end-to-end design flow. You'll work with cutting-edge technologies including split multi-die/chiplet architectures, Die-to-Die links, and various industry-standard protocols.

The ideal candidate brings strong expertise in:

  • SOC infrastructure IP components (NOC, SMMU, Caches)
  • Platform System Architecture (ARM, X86, RISC-V)
  • Quality of Service, Clocks, Power management
  • Security and Debug architectures
  • Performance modeling and validation
  • RTL design and complete design flow

This role offers competitive compensation ($211,900 - $317,900) plus comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision coverage, 401k, and education assistance. You'll be part of a team driving innovation in 5G and connectivity technologies, working on challenging projects that define the future of mobile computing.

Join Qualcomm to be part of a company that values invention, collaboration, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible in technology. Your work will directly impact the next generation of mobile devices and connected experiences worldwide.
