General Summary:
Qualcomm’s Compute Chipset Project Engineering team is responsible for the planning and execution of industry leading Compute Chipsets through all phases from concept to commercialization. A Compute Chipset comprises multiple chips that together perform the functions of a compute device (such as Application Processor, PMICs, Audio, Connectivity, Modem), as well as the associated software, firmware and reference hardware.
We are seeking a Principal Chipset Project Engineer – Thermal/Limits for Personal Computer (PC) to lead the thermal and limits strategy across the compute product portfolio through all phases from concept to commercialization. Responsibilities include defining system thermal budgets, defining methodologies and tools to analyze and predict thermal behavior, modeling of thermals and thermally constrained performance, influencing designs and planning features, defining and tuning system limits, as well as to provide customer guidance on thermal targets and solutions. This lead will be responsible for extracting the highest thermally constrained system performance possible out of systems with fixed product constraints. Works closely with domain and IP specific engineering leads, Project Engineers, Product Management, and Program Management. Role also requires a strong engagement with OEMs and ODMs. Responsible for clearly communicating thermal goals, strategy, and status to executives and chipset teams. Works in a highly matrixed environment. This role frequently requires working with others to fulfill job responsibilities without direct authority.
