About the Role

Qualcomm's Data Center team is developing high-performance, energy-efficient server solutions. We are seeking talented, innovative, and teamwork-oriented individuals to contribute to our cutting-edge technology work. Our mission is to transform the industry by reimagining silicon and developing next-generation server/compute platforms. You will collaborate with world-class engineers to create innovative server solutions that push the limits of performance, energy efficiency, and scalability, focusing on reference platforms based on Qualcomm's Snapdragon SoC.

Responsibilities

Collaborate with SoC, firmware/software, memory vendors, component suppliers, packaging, platform engineering, and system design teams to define and implement power architectures that meet internal and customer requirements.
Lead voltage regulator (VR) design specification, selection, and co-development with VR suppliers.
Develop E2E VR + PDN simulation flows to reduce time to market.
Perform PDN modeling, simulation, and characterization for SoC, package, PCB, VRs, and LDOs.
Provide PI-driven feedback to SoC design teams to influence decap, package, and power rail architecture.
Create Power maps, Power tree and power-flow diagrams, power budgets from die- to system-level.
Develop and provide implementation and system efficiency guidelines.
Conduct IR Drop, AC, and transient simulations and provide model-to-hardware correlations.
Define module interfaces and formats for simulation and customer guidelines.
Lead PI model creation, end-to-end PI simulations (thermal-aware), and final design development taking into account effects of heat sinks and temperature effects.
Leverage ML/AI-assisted simulation techniques to streamline and automate design and analysis workflows from die to regulators.
Prepare and present technical documentation and reports to stakeholders, including engineering teams, senior management, customers, and suppliers.
Engage with customers and OEM partners to provide power delivery architecture guidance, PDN design guidelines, and bring-up support.
Troubleshoot system performance and identify areas for improvements.

Requirements

Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field; experience in Power Delivery preferred.
Strong experience in Power Integrity (PI).
8+ years of experience in Power delivery, board level VR design, PI analysis, simulation, and PDN measurements.
Strong understanding of PI fundamentals, power supply architectures, voltage regulator technologies, chip supply design, and PDNs.
Experience developing PI methodologies and PDN modeling from die to system, with model correlation and lab validation.
Experience with server, HPC, or data center platform power delivery preferred.
Experience with multi-phase VR design/selection.
Proficiency in PI simulation tools (e.g., Simplis/Simetrix, ADS, ANSYS SIwave, HFSS and Cadence Sigrity PowerDC/PowerSI).
Hands-on experience creating complex PI models and simulations.
Proficiency with Unix/Linux environments and EDA tools using scripting.
Knowledge of packaging and PCB technologies, design, and manufacturing processes.
Knowledge of resonances, droops, IR Drop, cooling, temperature effects, and power consumptions.
Familiarity with 2.5D/3D packaging technologies, including CoWoS, InFo, EMIB, and RDL.
Strong experience in VR lab validation.
Experience with electrical validation and compliance testing tools (VNAs, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, TDR, differential probes).
Proven ability to work independently and collaboratively within a cross-functional team environment.
Strong technical documentation skills and excellent written and verbal communication.
Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 6+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.
Master's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 5+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.
PhD in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 4+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.
