Qualcomm is developing an exciting new product line for machine learning inference acceleration in the cloud with industry leading performance/watt. As part of this project Qualcomm is seeking an experienced power electronics engineer. The role will cover all aspects of product development including (but not limited to) specifying board level power design, power management products and voltage regulator selection, development, programming, debug, as well as post-silicon board/SoC test validation and power correlation ensuring system-level performance and power metrics are met.
• Requires expertise in one or more of the following engineering disciplines: power electronics (switch mode and linear), power management, high bandwidth/low latency control interfaces, thermal analysis, power distribution networks, firmware coding, Python or similar scripting languages, PCB layout and construction and industry standard interfaces (e.g. DDR, PCIE, USB etc).
• Uses design and simulation tools such as MATLAB, SIMPLIS, Excel and Mentor Graphics
• Work with power, system, board architecture, and other cross-organization colleagues to ensure board meets power delivery requirements to SoC.
• Provide schematic/layout guidance to CAD team and conduct design reviews following internal and industry established guidelines
• Help drive internal simulation teams to ensure board design meets signal and power integrity (SI/PI) including (but not limited to) impedance analysis, IR drop analysis, transient droop/overshoot for all rails.
• Expertise with multi-phase buck, boost, LDO regulators as well as crystal oscillators, low-noise clocks, precision references; implement differential voltage and current sensing.
• Responsible for programming Qualcomm PMIC programing to orchestrate system power-on and power-off sequence on a development platform. Especially critical to be able to work with a degree of abstraction and ambiguity.
• Derive, document, and execute board validation test plans pre/post-silicon. Bring up and test PCB utilizing typical test equipment (oscilloscopes, meters, electronic loads, passive/active/power probes, T32 debuggers, etc.)
• Drives triage of problems at the system-level to determine root cause. Analyze test results ensuring sufficient design margins have been achieved. Provide feedback to teams to implement changes as required. Support SoC, software and firmware teams during development
• Tracks industry technology trends, interacts with other technology teams. Provides technical expertise for next generation initiatives.
Ideal candidates will demonstrate the following education background:
• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering
