Job Description
Company:
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
Job Area:
Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Multimedia Systems
General Summary:
Design and develop cutting-edge digital signal processing (DSP) IP with a focus on audio applications. This role will involve working on various projects, including:
- Hardware DSP IP Design: support digital signal processing hardware IP development for voice and audio applications. Collaborate with leads on the IP development using high-level synthesis (HLS) design flow and System C
- Low Power digital CODEC and audio subsystem development
- Digital CODEC and audio subsystem integration: define system architecture and integrate digital CODEC in SoCs
- Audio peripheral device development: work on the development and bring-up activities of audio peripheral devices including ADC, DAC and audio AMPs
Preferred Qualifications:
- Strong background in digital signal or mixed signal processing including PCM and PDM domain filter design
- Experience with high-level synthesis tools and System C
- Experience with Matlab, Python and C/C++
Principal Duties and Responsibilities:
- Design systems-level hardware to implement DSP functionality; identify power constraints and potential tradeoffs and make recommendations to resolve issues and produce innovative solutions
- Contribute to technical conversations and documentation (e.g., white papers, schematics, FDD, HLDR); escalate complex technical issues to an appropriate contact (e.g., project lead, colleagues)
- Contribute to design reviews for subsystem development; define design constraints for specific projects; identify solutions to meet design targets
- Collaborate with peers to design products that meet internal and/or external customer requirements and standards
