Entry Level Python Developer Jobs in Princeton Junction, NJ

Company:
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
Job Area:
Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Software Applications Engineering
General Summary:
Qualcomm's Terrestrial Positioning Service (TPS) is a cutting-edge geolocation solution that delivers accurate, reliable, and scalable positioning for industrial and mobile applications-even in challenging signal environments. TPS leverages Wi-Fi, cellular, and terrestrial beacons (like Bluetooth® Low Energy) to provide precise geolocation and wayfinding capabilities for asset trackers, handheld devices, payment terminals, and more. Its hybrid approach ensures robust positioning, whether alongside or independent of GPS, and is optimized for power efficiency and lightweight integration.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Technical Expertise:
  
  • Strong software engineering background, with hands-on experience writing code for Android, Linux, and embedded/RTOS platforms.
  • Experience creating sample apps, SDK demos, and cloud integrations-not just documenting, but building and demonstrating technical solutions.
  • Experience with Wi-Fi, cellular, and BLE-based positioning technologies, and experience with Qualcomm platforms.

• Developer Relations & Communication:
  • Proven ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly and compellingly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Experience in Developer Relations, Pre-Sales Engineering, or Technical Product Marketing, with a focus on enabling developers through practical, code-level resources.
  • Excellent technical writing skills, with experience creating tutorials, blog posts, and documentation that resonate with developers.
  • Experience with video creation is appreciated.

• Collaboration & Advocacy:
  • Ability to advocate for developers internally, ensuring their feedback drives product improvements.
  • Fluency in a second language is highly valued.

Primary Responsibilities

• Technical Content & Sample Development:
  
  • Create sample apps and cloud integrations using the TPS SDK and API, demonstrating real-world use cases for asset tracking, logistics, retail, and payments.
  • Develop hands-on tutorials, integration guides, and technical blog posts that walk developers through using TPS on Android, Linux, and embedded/RTOS platforms.
  • Audit existing documentation to identify gaps, redundancies, and opportunities for improvement, ensuring all resources are up-to-date and developer-friendly.
  • Repackage and enhance existing documentation to ensure it is easily discoverable and tailored to different developer personas.

• Developer Enablement & Support:
  • Engage directly with developers-through forums, Q&A sessions, and deep-dive technical discussions-to understand their challenges and provide actionable solutions.
  • Occasionally jump on calls with customer engineers to discuss app architecture, troubleshoot integration issues, and provide best practices for using TPS.
  • Collaborate with the support team to identify common pain points and create resources that address them proactively.

• Community & Advocacy:
  • Support developer forums, hackathons, and community events to foster adoption and gather feedback.
  • Advocate internally for developers, ensuring their needs and feedback shape the future of TPS.

Why Join Us?
