About the Role

The Qualcomm Data Center AI System Hardware and Validation Engineering team is developing rack-level AI inference solutions for next-generation, liquid-cooled data centers. This role offers the opportunity to join a world-class, multidisciplinary team shaping the future of AI infrastructure, working with industry-leading experts across the AI infrastructure stack. You will partner with SoC, software/firmware, rack-level system design, and manufacturing teams, ensuring program activities are well planned, tracked, and executed from concept through production.

Responsibilities

Lead execution for next-generation Qualcomm rack-scale designs within a matrixed organization spanning multiple teams and global sites.
Define and manage requirements, scope, schedules, and deliverables in alignment with engineering teams, partners, and stakeholders.
Own rack-level integration plans across compute nodes/accelerators, PCIe fabrics, networking, storage, power delivery, cooling, and rack management/telemetry.
Drive firmware/software/hardware co-design execution, aligning BIOS/BMC/Redfish/telemetry requirements with hardware schedules and validation gates.
Lead cross-functional design reviews and readiness reviews (architecture, schematic/layout, SI/PI, thermal, mechanical, firmware, manufacturing), and close actions to schedule.
Coordinate platform-level debug and instrumentation (telemetry, logging, health monitoring) to accelerate failure analysis and improve observability.
Establish and run triage mechanisms (issue intake, prioritization, defect metrics) and drive issues to root cause, corrective action, and verified closure.
Define and track program-level KPIs (schedule health, build quality, defect trends, coverage, yield, reliability) and publish executive dashboards and weekly program reviews.
Identify program risks, drive mitigation plans, and manage scope changes while proactively communicating status and decisions to stakeholders.
