Qualcomm Jobs

Company:

Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

Job Area:

Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Modem Technologies

General Summary:

Qualcomm is the world leader in wireless ICs powering the majority of 3G, 4G and 5G devices and is the largest fabless semiconductor in the world. Qualcomm designs wireless modem and RF transceivers for advanced cell phone applications and is currently looking for functional design verification (DV) engineers.

As a wireless verification engineer, you will be responsible for verifying wireless baseband designs by developing test plans and verification environments, and applying these to verify a broad spectrum of wireless designs. As verification is a rapidly changing field and consumes the majority of the design process, developing and deploying new verification methodologies is an essential part of the work you will do. You will work closely with systems and firmware engineers in formulating test cases and test vectors. Assertions, simulation, formal verification, HW-SW co-verification and constraint/HVL-based verification are all tools in our verification toolbox you will use on a daily basis.

Individuals in this role are responsible for developing next generation cellular handset modems.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of Software Engineering, Hardware Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience.

OR

Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 1+ year of Software Engineering, Hardware Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience.

OR

PhD in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.

**We are open to candidates for locations in San Diego , Santa Clara, CA Boxborough MA

Preferred Qualifications:

• BS or MS and 2+ years of relevant industry experience.

• Experience in Verification test planning, test bench architecture, assertions, problem solving and debug

• Constrained Random Verification experience with System Verilog using OVM or UVM - Coverage driven verification(code/functional/assertion coverage)

• Good understanding of Verilog or VHDL, C/C++, System C , Python/Perl

• Wireless or wireline modem communications or DSP background

• Knowledge of 4G/5G cellular physical layer operation (3GPP) is a plus
