Lead a specialized team of software engineers developing innovative Pixel sensor experiences at the intersection of hardware, software, and AI. You will drive the design and implementation of real-time embedded systems that process sensor signals efficiently while applying machine-learning and signal-processing algorithms in a power-optimized manner. Required: 8 years software development experience, 5 years in computer vision or signal processing, 5 years leading ML design and infrastructure optimization, and 3 years technical leadership. This role demands deep expertise in embedded software, AI/ML algorithms, sensor fusion, and the ability to independently architect systems while managing a team.

As a Senior Systems Engineer for Data Center AI at Qualcomm, you will research, develop, optimize, and validate AI/ML solutions that integrate Qualcomm's hardware accelerators with software and ecosystem to deliver high-performance inference in datacenter environments. You will design and deploy Gen AI and LLM applications, implement fine-tuning and distillation techniques, perform model benchmarking, and drive system-level architecture decisions. You will collaborate across functional teams to meet system-level requirements while staying current with advances in AI/ML models and hardware. Required skills include strong Python proficiency, expertise in ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow), deep understanding of ML deployment and system performance profiling, and experience with parallel computing.

Design, build, and ship LLM-powered capabilities end to end—from prototyping and fine-tuning models to deploying production agents and retrieval systems. Own the full stack: prompt and context engineering, multi-step agent design with tool calling, RAG systems (embeddings, chunking, hybrid search, reranking), fine-tuning on multi-GPU with LoRA/QLoRA, evaluation and tracing infrastructure, and clean APIs for other engineers. Work in a secure, distributed environment where the platform runs on customer compute, cloud, or hybrid setups, requiring expertise with both commercial and self-hosted models.

As Principal Software Engineer for AI & Data Platform, you will architect the data foundation for scientific and engineering R&D platforms, designing scalable data processing patterns, ML training pipelines, and intelligent workflow interfaces. You will own end-to-end responsibilities including data modeling for multi-use analytics and ML, building production training and fine-tuning pipelines, model evaluation and benchmarking, and setting engineering standards for the team. The role requires 10+ years shipping production software, expert-level Python, deep experience with large-scale data systems (object storage, analytical processing, training formats), hands-on ML pipeline development, and the ability to set technical direction in early-stage environments while implementing it yourself.
