Qualcomm
Senior Modem Technologies Software Engineer
Qualcomm, Boulder, Colorado, United States, 80301
Overview
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. is seeking a candidate in the Engineering Group for Modem Technologies Software. The role involves independently planning and performing the moderately-defined responsibilities of designing, implementing, verifying, validating, and commercializing Wireless WAN (or cellular) modem air interface RAN technologies. Responsibilities include working on Modem Access Stratum and RF software design, optimizations and algorithms, and collaborating with the RFFE team to define and guide the modem IP architecture, RFFE design, hardware APIs, core systems algorithms, and HW/SW/co-processor architecture. The position focuses on transceiver, HW control, and wireless Radio Access Stratum software implementation of a multi-RAT (LTE and 5G NR per 3GPP specifications). Experience with WWAN L1/L2/L3 specifications and efficient implementation of shared multi-RAT modem resources is expected. The role involves collaboration with other functional groups to develop a cost-effective, high-quality, high-capability modem IP that meets industry and customer requirements with performance targets (throughput, latency, power) and acceptable cost (silicon area, calibration complexity, code size). The candidate is expected to be a strong contributor at design reviews and project meetings. Telecommuting may be permitted. When not telecommuting, report to Qualcomm’s office location(s) in Boulder, CO. Responsibilities
