As a Senior Software Engineer, you will design, develop, and optimize software solutions for Qualcomm's next-generation data center platforms, with a focus on Linux Kernel development in virtualization (KVM), scheduling, memory management (IOMMU), and power/performance management (DVFS) for ARM-based systems. You will debug complex issues using JTAG debuggers, contribute to upstream open-source projects, and lead a team of engineers.… The role requires expertise in C/C++, Linux Kernel internals, ARMv8/ARMv9 architecture, system architecture analysis, and hands-on experience with FPGA and QEMU-based pre-silicon development.
Design, develop, and optimize real-time embedded modem software for Qualcomm's cellular platforms (5G/6G), working close to the metal with performant C/C++ on DSP and Arm cores across protocol layers, drivers, and RTOS components. Own end-to-end feature delivery from requirements through on-target validation, with strict latency, memory, and power constraints.… Pioneer AI-native development practices by integrating code-generation agents, LLM-based code review, and automated test synthesis into daily workflows to accelerate delivery and debugging. Debug complex multi-layer issues on target hardware, increasingly leveraging AI-assisted log and crash analysis.
Build the foundational agentic AI layer for a materials-science platform, including multi-model provider abstraction, agent orchestration with stateful checkpoints, retrieval systems, prompt versioning, and comprehensive tracing and evaluation frameworks. You'll design agents that plan and reason over tool calls in production, implement human-in-the-loop safety gates, and ensure all LLM behavior remains auditable and cost-tracked across customers' secure environments.… The role demands deep production experience with agentic and LLM systems: async Python, structured outputs, memory and context management, multi-step workflow orchestration, and evaluation harnesses that catch regressions before deployment.
Lead the design, architecture, and development of native Windows desktop applications using Windows App SDK, WinUI, C#, XAML, and C++. Define best practices for Windows development, drive accessibility efforts across Microsoft UI Automation frameworks, and take full ownership of feature lifecycles from conception through maintenance.… Collaborate with product designers, UX researchers, and QA to shape the Windows platform roadmap. Diagnose and resolve complex bugs, performance bottlenecks, memory leaks, and compatibility issues while mentoring other engineers and conducting code reviews.
Senior Staff Software Engineer responsible for designing and optimizing the server-side JavaScript execution engine at the heart of the ServiceNow platform. The role requires deep expertise in compiler and runtime systems, including JIT/AOT compilation pipelines, memory management, and performance optimization at scale.… You will work across the full software lifecycle from design through delivery, mentor colleagues on systems engineering and performance profiling, and own technical decisions with material risk across multiple projects and teams.
Join Illumina's Primary Analysis team to design and develop high-performance signal processing software for genomic data analysis. You will architect C/C++ solutions for multi-threaded, real-time applications running on Linux, optimize algorithms for genomic base calling from image signals, and collaborate across bioinformatics, instrument design, and quality teams.… The role demands expertise in memory management, performance optimization, debugging tools, and unit testing, with 8+ years of professional software development experience.
Staff Software Engineer at Illumina's Primary Analysis team designing high-performance signal processing pipelines for genomic data analysis. The role involves architecting C/C++ software for multi-threaded, memory-optimized Linux applications that detect genomic signals from images, with responsibilities including algorithm development, performance optimization, debugging, and collaboration across bioinformatics, instrument design, and quality teams.… Requires 8+ years of professional software development experience, deep expertise in C/C++, multi-threading, memory management, and debugging/profiling tools, plus strong object-oriented design and unit testing practices.
Qualcomm seeks a Sr. Staff/Principal Software Engineer to provide system-level technical leadership for next-generation ARM server platforms, spanning Linux kernel, firmware, and platform software.… The role requires architecting across hardware, firmware, OS, and hypervisor boundaries using standards like ACPI, UEFI, SystemReady, SBSA/SBBR, and PSCI. Responsibilities include Linux kernel enablement, performance optimization, platform driver development, and guiding boot flows, power management, virtualization, and telemetry. This position demands 10+ years of hands-on Linux kernel development, deep C/assembly proficiency, firmware and pre/post-silicon debug experience, and the ability to mentor senior engineers while influencing SoC roadmaps.
