What You'll Do
- Evaluate emerging AI workloads (MoE, multimodal AI, vector DBs, etc.) on Qualcomm's future hardware platforms.
- Use internal and external tools to model workloads, run what‑if scenarios, and identify system bottlenecks.
- Influence SoC, memory, networking, and system‑level design decisions.
- Partner with architecture, software, and product teams to drive implementation strategy.
What You Bring
- 8+ years of experience in ASIC design/verification/validation or system performance engineering.
- Deep understanding of AI workload characteristics and system‑level KPIs.
- Strong Python/scripting skills for workload modeling and analysis.
- Strong analytical thinking, creativity, and communication skills.
- MS/PhD preferred in EE/CS or related field.
Keywords: AI Systems, LLMs, MoE, Computer Architecture, Performance Modeling, Workload Analysis.
