Responsibilities
- Design and implement timing-critical firmware for 5G/6G NR modems, including control flows, RF controls, scheduling, and state machines.
- Implement features based on 3GPP specifications for 5G/6G NR, LTE, and multi-RAT operation.
- Collaborate with modem systems, PHY, and hardware teams to define and integrate end-to-end solutions.
- Debug complex modem issues involving firmware, hardware, and system interactions.
- Participate in bring-up, integration, and feature commercialization on new modem platforms.
- Contribute to design discussions, code reviews, and technical problem solving.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, or a relevant master’s degree or PhD alternative.
- At least 3–6 years of embedded systems or firmware development experience, with minimum-qualification alternatives specifying 5+, 4+, 3+, or 2+ years depending on degree level.
- Strong programming skills in C.
- Understanding of real-time systems, interrupts, concurrency, and low-level control logic.
- Experience with real-time embedded software, caching mechanisms, multithreaded environments, RF controls or RF loops, scheduler design, and control-plane logic is preferred.
- Experience debugging complex embedded systems and understanding hardware-software interactions, including registers, interrupts, DMA, and timers, is preferred.
- Semiconductor industry and SoC experience, exposure to 3GPP specifications, and familiarity with AI coding tools such as Claude Code or GitHub Copilot are preferred.
- Ability to work effectively independently and collaboratively, with strong analytical, debugging, and problem-solving skills.

About Qualcomm
Qualcomm is a public semiconductor company headquartered in San Diego, founded in 1985, that designs and sells wireless chipsets and platforms for mobile devices, automotive, IoT, and networking, notably the Snapdragon application processors and 5G modems. It also licenses a large portfolio of cellular patents to device makers, generating revenue alongside chip sales; its technology underpins many Android smartphones and emerging automotive and edge-compute systems, and it trades on NASDAQ as QCOM.
