Company:

Qualcomm China

Job Area:

Engineering Group, Engineering Group > ASICS Engineering

General Summary:

1. Apply your analog integrated circuit design and verification expertise to the development of mobile communication systems, Wi-Fi, 10G Base-T Ethernet, Audio CODEC, Fingerprint, Automotive and wired peripherals.

2. Circuits of interest are: Ring or LC-tank based VCO/PLLs, SAR ADC, Sigma-Delta ADC, RDACs, High speed SerDes Transmitters and Receivers, DDR PHYs, continuous time and switched-cap filters, Audio class AB/D/G/H amplifiers, voltage regulators and precision references. Low voltage and low power CMOS design techniques in nanometer technologies are emphasized.

3. Perform analog and mixed-signal modeling and verification tasks, both at IP and chip level.

4. Work together with layout engineers to optimize circuit performance.

5. Troubleshooting and debug in Labs.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or Computer Engineering.

• 6+ months of experience with architecture and design tools.

• 6+ months of experience with scripting tools and programming languages.

• 6+ months of experience with design verification methods.

Principal Duties & Responsibilities:

• Uses tools/applications (i.e., Cadence, RTL Compiler, etc.) to execute the architecture and design of a specific part of a block according to design protocol provided.

• Resolves architecture, design, or verification problems by applying sound ASIC engineering practices with some supervision.

• Executes the design and verification strategies of ASICs, SoC, and IP cores of own specific assigned part of a block or IC Package with supervision from project lead.

• Writes basic tests and regressions to identify any bugs in own work.

• Runs power checks on specific part of a block under the guidance of more senior engineers.

• Interprets the results of performance checks and reports them to team lead.

• Supports the innovation of ASICs, SoC, IP cores, and/or transistor level integrated circuits.

• Writes, reviews, and edits technical document in accordance with template requirements.

• Communicates directly with lead on any significant deviations from the Plan of Record for specific assigned part of a block in a timely manner.

• Participates in design or project reviews and project meetings.

• Provides input to team lead regarding areas for process and procedural improvement.

Level of Responsibility:

• Working under close supervision.

• Taking responsibility for own work and making decisions with limited impact; Impact of decisions is readily apparent; errors made typically only impact timeline (i.e., require additional time to correct).

• Using verbal and written communication skills to convey basic, routine factual information about day-to-day activities to others who are fully knowledgeable in the subject area.

• Completing most tasks with multiple steps which can be performed in various orders; some planning and prioritization must occur to complete the tasks effectively; mistakes may result in some rework.

• Exercising some creativity to troubleshoot technical problems or deal with novel circumstances.

• Using deductive problem solving to solve moderately complex problems; most problems have defined processes of diagnosis/detection; some limited data analysis may be required.

The responsibilities of this role do not include:

• Financial accountability (e.g., does not involve budgeting responsibility).

• Influence over key organizational decisions.

• Role in strategic planning.
