Sr Product and Test Engineer

Company

Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

Engineering Group, Engineering Group >
Hardware Engineering

Creates test plans, test procedures, manufacturing solutions, HW designs for leading‑edge mid‑high power ASIC products in the most advanced process technologies.

Performs silicon design verification, debug functional device issues/bugs, characterization, and analyses of electric parameters/KPIs vs design simulations.

Interfaces with various cross‑functional teams (e.g. Designers, Software/System Engineering, Architecture Development, Business Groups, Customers, Customer Engineering) to drive and incorporate the latest test solutions in the production program to improve yield, test time, and quality.

Evaluates reliability of materials, properties, and techniques used in production.

• Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or related field.
• 8+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.
• 2+ years of experience with hardware design and measurement instruments such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, RF tools, etc.
• 1+ years in a technical leadership role with or without direct reports.

• Develops complex features and components of hardware designs in line with proposals or roadmaps for complex products; advises less experienced engineers working together on common testing and design tasks.
• Applies advanced design rules and processes for electronic hardware, equipment, and/or integrated circuitry independently; has a basic understanding of other domains.
• Reads device specification sheets and interprets complex details required to design various hardware features; provides guidance to less experienced engineers working with spec sheets.
• Identifies advanced ways to optimize tests and/or hardware designs by evaluating device performance over a wide range of operating conditions and configurations.
• Evaluates complex design features to identify potential flaws (electrical, mechanical, hardware), compatibility issues, and/or compliance issues; advises less experienced engineers on design evaluations.
• Documents complex details about materials, components, chipsets, and functionality for a device while being mindful of potential compatibility, safety, and compliance issues; assists less experienced engineers in their documentation of these details.
• Troubleshoots advanced issues with product designs and finds solutions that are documented and shared with internal teams working on similar products.
• Provides essential technical input, support, and documentation for internal customers; advises less experienced engineers on how to provide support for clients.
• Acts as a tech lead on mid‑sized to large projects and owns the outcome of the project.
• Manages project‑related activities (e.g., meetings, documentation, deliverables) between their team and other teams working on the same or similar products, operating across locations and time zones; brings the project to conclusion.
• Utilizes deep understanding of Qualcomm products to evaluate and test hardware designs and identify unique components or functions that could potentially be filed for IP patents; shares these findings with their manager.
• Displays deep knowledge in a specific area; acquires advanced knowledge of industry trends, competitor products, and advances in various engineering fields from publicly available information; shares knowledge with others on team and helps less experienced engineers understand and apply advanced concepts.
• Conducts specialized analyses (e.g., feasibility studies, signal integrity, power integrity, teardown analyses) and/or reviews analyses conducted; provides guidance and feedback to junior engineers in the execution and interpretation of these analyses.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 6+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.
• Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 5+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.
• PhD in Computer…
