About The Position

This individual leads the team to improve engineering efficiency, product quality and responsibility of the research, design, development, verification, debugging and parameter tuning of algorithms for embedded SoC (System-on-Chip) software architectures, QoS architectures, domains and standards for the next-generation mobile devices, wireless networks and technologies, which includes the evolution of 3G, 4G, 5G, WLAN platforms. Interacts with overall computer system architecture (i.e. core, cache, memory models, bus architecture, Memory controller etc.) to establish software partitions that result in reliable, cost effective and power efficient system-on-chip solutions to enable advanced features in wireless devices. Identifies functionality for which minimum performance requirements remains, and generate and consolidate performance requirements data and conduct analysis and evaluation of critical performance metrics for 3G/4G/5G wireless platforms. This includes theoretical analysis, computer aided analysis, and utilizing expertise in radio communication theory, digital signal processing and cellular communication systems across PHY/MAC layers. Participates in design, Standards review sessions, contribution to QUALCOMM's IP portfolio, systems support for implementation and technical contributions towards proprietary or public air interface specifications. Acts as a strong contributor at design reviews and project meetings and communicates and implements a development plan.
