Responsibilities
- Define product stability strategies, test methodologies, quality gates, MTBF targets, reliability KPIs, and stability KPIs.
- Lead stress, endurance, reliability, concurrency, and system-level stability testing across SoC subsystems, labs, CI, and field environments.
- Design and optimize stability test plans, scenarios, automation frameworks, coverage, execution efficiency, and device utilization.
- Own triage and root-cause analysis for system hangs, kernel panics, watchdog resets, memory corruptions, boot failures, performance degradations, and power or thermal anomalies.
- Analyze crash dumps, traces, ramdumps, CoreSight data, T32 output, crash utility results, and internal debug information.
- Drive corrective actions and defect prioritization with hardware, software, architecture, integration, test, commercial, customer, and program teams.
- Develop automation, analytics, dashboards, and AI-assisted methods for defect identification, coverage optimization, and commercialization-readiness tracking.
- Assess release readiness, reproduce and resolve customer-reported and field issues, and reduce stability escapes.
- Mentor engineers and technical leads, lead technical reviews, and influence debugging practices and architectural improvements.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
- At least 10 years of industry experience in software, systems, platform validation, or product stability, with experience leading large-scale stability efforts.
- Alternatively, a Bachelor’s degree with 6+ years, Master’s degree with 5+ years, or PhD with 4+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience.
- At least 3 years of experience with a programming language such as C, C++, Java, or Python.
- Strong experience with Linux, Android, QNX, embedded systems, SoC architecture, CPU, memory, interrupts, schedulers, hypervisors, virtualization, power management, device drivers, kernel debugging, reliability testing, stress testing, and multi-core systems.
- Experience with crash-dump analysis, GDB or LLDB, JTAG or T32, CoreSight, kernel tracing, CI/CD systems, Python automation, data analytics, and dashboarding.
- Preferred experience in Automotive, XR, Compute, Mobile, IoT, or Edge platforms and end-to-end embedded or SoC bring-up, integration, stabilization, validation, and commercialization.
- Preferred broad exposure to boot, Kernel/BSP, firmware, power, Memory/DDR, storage, multimedia/GPU, connectivity, modem, and security subsystems.
- Preferred experience debugging complex cross-subsystem hardware/software issues, analyzing performance and profiling data, and conducting stress, endurance, reliability, and concurrency testing.
- Preferred AI-assisted engineering exposure for debugging, test planning, analysis, or execution optimization, plus strong technical ownership, communication, mentoring, and cross-functional leadership.
Benefits
- The posting does not specify compensation, benefits, or work-arrangement details.
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.
