As a Qualcomm Hardware Engineer, you will plan, design, optimize, verify, and test electronic systems, bring-up yield, circuits, mechanical systems, Digital/Analog/RF/optical systems, equipment and packaging, test systems, FPGA, and/or DSP systems that launch cutting-edge, world class products. Qualcomm Hardware Engineers collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop solutions and meet performance requirements.\nOur RF System Level Test (SLT) team in Taiwan develops production screening solutions for Qualcomm's leading-edge cellular modem and RF products. The team tests devices in conditions close to how they're actually used, which helps catch quality problems that conventional manufacturing tests can miss.\nWe are looking for a Senior RF SLT Engineer to bring up RF calibration and RF verification test content on system-level test platforms, to take it from bench validation to automated high-volume screening, and to drive yield and quality improvement with global RF, software, product engineering, and test teams.\nMinimum Qualifications\nBachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience. OR Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 2+ year of Hardware Engineering or related work experience. OR PhD in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field.\nPreferred Qualifications\nMaster's degree in Electrical Engineering, Communication Engineering, or related field.\n3+ years of experience in RF product test, RF calibration/verification, or system-level test, preferably for cellular modem, RF transceiver, or mobile/automotive SoC products.\nWorking knowledge of cellular technologies (GSM / WCDMA / LTE / 5G NR FR1); mmWave experience is a plus.\nHands-on experience with RF calibration (e.g., Tx/Rx gain, feedback-receiver, DPD, RSB/IQ calibration) and RF verification based on 3GPP test methods: max power, frequency error, EVM, OBW, SEM, ACLR, and receiver sensitivity.\nExperience with RF test equipment such as radio communication testers/callboxes, spectrum/signal analyzers, RF shielding boxes, and RF splitters.\nExperience with test sequencers, test automation, and handler-based production test deployment.\nProgramming/scripting in Python, C#, or C/C++; familiarity with source control (Git or equivalent).\nAbility to debug using modem/RF logs, Android debugging tools, or JTAG.\nStrong data analysis skills (yield, parametric distribution, correlation) and good English communication for working with globally distributed teams.\nPrincipal Duties and Responsibilities\nDefine the RF SLT test strategy and coverage, including RF calibration, RF verification, and modem functional tests, working with RF systems, RF software, and validation teams.\nBring up and validate RF test content on SLT bench and automated platforms, from early silicon through high-volume manufacturing.\nDevelop, release, and maintain RF SLT test programs; set test limits and optimize test time and throughput.\nPlan RF test hardware (callboxes, shielding boxes, splitters, handlers) and model capacity to support volume screening\nAnalyze RF failure signatures, correlate SLT results with other test insertions, and drive root cause analysis to improve yield and reduce DPPM.\nWork with automation and software teams to bring RF verification into handler-based automated testing.\nPrepare technical reports, test plans, and status updates for stakeholders.\nLevel of Responsibility\nWorks independently with minimal supervision.\nDecision-making may affect work beyond immediate work group.\nRequires verbal and written communication skills to convey information. May require basic negotiation, influence, tact, etc.\nTasks require multiple steps which can be performed in various orders; some planning, problem-solving, and prioritization must occur to complete the tasks effectively.\nMinimum Qualifications:\n• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.OR\nMaster's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 1+ year of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.\nOR\nPhD in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field.\nApplicants: Qualcomm is an equal opportunity employer.
