Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

Job Area:

Engineering Group, Engineering Group > SoC Architecture

General Summary:

Qualcomm’s growing Cloud & Data Center Business Unit SoC Architecture team analyzes requirements and SoC & system architecture to define the next-generation cloud AI and other data center products. Memory architecture has become a pivotal technology track for these products. Cloud AI workloads especially demand exceptional memory bandwidths and large capacities. Meanwhile, the memory technology industry is transforming, leading to a variety of opportunities and choices.

We are seeking a Memory System Architect with experience and expertise in SRAM, DRAM, DDR, LPDDR, HBM, GDDR and newly emerging memory technologies to drive the analysis, selection, definition, and implementation of memory system architectures for our Cloud AI and Data Center products.

If you’d like to be a member of collaborative multidisciplinary architecture team within a dynamic and growing Cloud & Data Center Business Unit, and if you’re passionate about shaping the future of the world’s most advanced technologies, we want to hear from you!

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field and 8+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.

OR

Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field and 7+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.

OR

PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field and 6+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.

• 2+ years of experience in one or more system architecture technology areas and products (e.g., Power System, Shared Resource Management, Limits/Thermal Management, Hardware Islands).

In this highly visible role, you will have the opportunity to innovate and define Memory System solutions which will have significant impact on the technical direction and competitiveness of Qualcomm’s products.

You will engage with customers and product managers to understand product requirements; research and analyze potential memory technologies; engage directly with memory vendors and suppliers to evaluate options and drive requirements; quantify the tradeoffs; recommend technical direction with robust justification; and drive the Cloud BU and Qualcomm technology and engineering organizations to successfully execute on that technical direction. Throughout the process, you will effectively communicate and collaboratively engage with the other SoC & IP architects, designers, systems engineers, product managers, and software teams to define Memory System solutions enabling market-leading Cloud AI and Data Center products.

Skills/Experience:

  • Outstanding memory architecture expertise on SRAM, DRAM, DDR, LPDDR, HBM, GDDR and emerging memory technologies such as STT-MRAM, PIM, etc.

  • Understanding internal memory technology organization, including DRAM bank & array arrangement, rows and columns, row buffer operation, internal data bus pathways, refresh, power state control, etc.

  • Understanding of memory controller architecture, memory scheduling, prioritization and QoS

  • Understanding memory PHY parameters and tradeoffs, including for LPDDR, DDR, and HBM

  • Fluid knowledge of one or more JEDEC standards such as LPDDR, DDR, or HBM, and the ability to analyze such standards and drive recommendations

  • Experience working with or working at the major DRAM and other memory vendors

  • Background in memory systems and computer architecture to understand the tradeoffs among memory bandwidth, latency, performance, power, SoC area
