Staff Software Engineer

At Qualcomm, we are transforming the automotive industry with our Snapdragon Digital Chassis and building the next generation software defined vehicle (SDV).

Snapdragon Ride is an integral pillar of our Snapdragon Digital Chassis, and since its launch it has gained momentum with a growing number of global automakers and Tier1 suppliers. Snapdragon Ride aims to address the complexity of autonomous driving and ADAS by leveraging its high-performance, power-efficient SoC, industry-leading artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and pioneering vision and drive policy stack to deliver a comprehensive, cost and energy efficient systems solution.

Enabling safe, comfortable, and affordable autonomous driving includes solving some of the most demanding and challenging technological problems. From centimeter-level localization to multimodal sensor perception, sensor fusion, behavior prediction, maneuver planning, and trajectory planning and control, each one of these functions introduces its own unique challenges to solve, verify, test, and deploy on the road.

We are looking for smart, innovative, and motivated individuals with strong SW background and programming experience with languages such as C/C++, python, and more. Job responsibilities include design and development of SW framework and middleware. Development of sensor drivers to bring in sensors (IMU, GPS, Camera, Radar, Lidar, Ultrasonic) to our platform, sensor synchronization, and efficient techniques to share sensor across different SW modules. Work closely with different teams to implement SW optimization on Snapdragon Ride platform as well as involved in Ride SDK development. Work closely with test engineers to develop test plans and validation of SW. Will be actively involved in SW integration and debugging issues on the embedded (Qualcomm) platform.
