POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS ENGINEER (all levels)

Job Description
QUALCOMM CDMA Technologies (QCT) is the largest provider of 3G chipset and software technology in the world, with chipsets shipped to more than 50 customers and powering the majority of all 3G devices commercially available. QCT partners with nearly 60 3G network operators around the globe and has the largest CDMA engineering team in the wireless industry.

QCT provides complete chipset solutions and integrated applications from the Launchpad suite of advanced technologies. Our integrated solutions offer device manufacturers reduced bill-of-materials costs, time-to-market, and development time. Mobile handsets powered by QCT chipsets can offer more features while maintaining a smaller, sleeker form-factor and benefiting from reduced power demands.

QCT values collaboration with its customers and partners and works closely with them to enable their success. We offer a wide range of tools to support the device development process, and develop new technologies based on the needs and demands of the wireless market. Devices for all market segments can now include features enabled by 3G wireless technology, in demand by a growing and increasingly sophisticated wireless community.


Sr. Power Systems Lead is responsible for the development of system architectures for the power management integrated circuits for portable battery powered wireless and consumer electronics applications. These devices contain low drop out linear voltage regulators, step up and step down switch mode voltage regulators, battery charge controllers, crystal oscillators, precision references, comparators, audio amplifiers, video amplifiers, precision current sources and high speed data transceivers



Skills/Experience
The ideal candidate for this position will have 8 or more years experience in systems design of full-custom analog power management integrated circuits (ICs) across a broad range of voltage domains. This individual should have been both responsible for the systems design of successful analog ICs that achieved high volume production, as well as the management of a team, or teams, that have done so. The candidate should have current technical expertise in analog IC design (even if not a technical contributor), device physics and ultra low power systems architectures and modeling. This is an ideal position for someone who has exercised his or her potential to the greatest extent possible at their current employer, and is now looking to perform on a larger and more comprehensive stage.
