About the Role
Qualcomm is seeking an experienced Hardware Scale-Out Architect to define the next generation of AI datacenter products. This role involves architecting large-scale Ethernet-based AI/datacenter fabrics connecting servers, accelerators, racks, and multi-rack clusters, driving system architecture from the accelerator card and server level through rack and cluster-scale deployments.
Responsibilities
- Define next-generation scale-out network architectures for AI and cloud datacenter deployments.
- Develop end-to-end system architecture spanning accelerator cards, servers, racks, and multi-rack clusters.
- Drive architecture and requirements for Ethernet fabrics, NICs/SuperNICs, switch ASICs, transport protocols, in-network collectives, telemetry, security, virtualization, RAS, and reliability features.
- Analyze DMA engines, data flows, packet flows, and system bottlenecks to optimize bandwidth, latency, utilization, and scalability.
- Collaborate with software, SoC design, card design, platform, and validation teams to realize connectivity solutions for AI scale-up and scale-out deployments.
- Provide technical leadership across physical, link, transaction, transport, and protocol layers of high-speed interfaces and datacenter networking systems.
Requirements
- 8+ years of hardware architecture, design, validation, testing, or commercialization experience in datacenter, networking, accelerator, or high-speed I/O products.
- Strong understanding of Ethernet, InfiniBand, RoCEv2, RDMA, and related transport protocols.
- Ability to work closely with software teams to optimize end-to-end data movement for high bandwidth, low latency, and efficient resource utilization.
- 3+ years of experience with datacenter products such as servers, accelerators, NICs, switches, racks, or cluster-scale systems.
- Strong knowledge of scale-out networking and scale-up interconnect architectures for AI and cloud infrastructure.
- In-depth knowledge of Ethernet, high-speed SerDes, PCIe/CXL-class interfaces, and board/system-level connectivity tradeoffs.
- Strong understanding of telemetry, observability, RAS, reliability, error handling, and failure-mode analysis in large-scale systems.
- Strong understanding of security, isolation, virtualization, and multi-tenant deployment requirements in datacenter environments.
- Strong understanding of DMA engines, memory hierarchy, I/O virtualization, and accelerator data-movement architectures.
- Ability to operate effectively in a high-caliber, cross-functional, international, and multi-site engineering environment.
