Company: Qualcomm India Private Limited Job Area: Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Software Engineering General Summary: Our Mission Qualcomm is transforming the compute industry by delivering cloud-scale, production-ready ARM server platforms. We design server-class SoCs that integrate high-performance CPUs with advanced interconnects and a robust software stack—optimized for performance, reliability, security, and operational efficiency at hyperscale. Our charter is to deliver reference ARM server platforms based on Qualcomm server SoCs, spanning silicon enablement, firmware, OS and hypervisor integration, documentation, and ecosystem support for datacenter customers. Job Summary Qualcomm is seeking a Sr. Staff / Principal level ARM Server SoC Software & Firmware Systems Engineer to act as a system-level technical leader for our next-generation ARM server platforms. This role is a cross-disciplinary technical leadership position with responsibility for guiding end-to-end system architecture across silicon, firmware, OS, and platform software. You will align multiple engineering teams around architectural intent, guide critical design decisions, track execution across organizational boundaries, and ensure delivery meets production and hyperscale requirements. Key Responsibilities Own and guide the system-level architecture for ARM server SoCs across hardware, firmware, OS, hypervisors, and platform services. Operate as a technical integrator across CPU, SoC, firmware, OS, performance, RAS, security, and platform teams. Define and enforce clean cross-layer contracts (HW ↔ FW ↔ OS ↔ Hypervisor) using industry standards such as ACPI, PSCI, SBSA/SBBR, and SystemReady. Provide architectural leadership for boot flows, runtime firmware, power and performance management, RAS, security, virtualization, memory, PCIe, and telemetry. Drive alignment on architectural principles, tradeoffs, and design decisions across multiple teams without direct authority. Identify architectural risks and cross-team dependencies early; guide execution and issue resolution to closure. Review designs and implementations to ensure adherence to architectural intent, scalability, and production-quality expectations. Translate hyperscaler, customer, and ecosystem requirements into clear technical architecture and execution priorities. Influence long-term platform and SoC roadmaps through system-level analysis and technical leadership. Produce high-quality architecture documentation, technical guidance, and executive-level summaries. Mentor senior engineers and emerging architects across firmware and system software domains. Minimum Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. 12+ years of experience in system software, firmware, or SoC architecture for server or datacenter platforms.
