Sr Engineer: LPAI Architecture and Systems Engineer

Overview

As part of Qualcomm’s Audio and Low-Power AI (LPAI) Architecture group, you will architect, analyze, and optimize DSP and embedded NPU (eNPU) performance across Snapdragon value-tier platforms. Your focus will be on architectural analysis, optimization, and deployment of low-power AI (LPAI) solutions, enabling efficient on-device intelligence, including eNPU scheduling, memory hierarchy, compression/quantization strategies, and clock/BW voting, to enable efficient on-device AI for audio, sensors, and always-on use cases. You will build system models, conduct performance/power trade studies, and drive architectural recommendations that scale across mobile, XR, compute, IoT, and automotive tiers.

Key Responsibilities

• Analyze, design, and optimize LPAI (Hexagon DSP, eNPU, TCM/UBUF/LLC/DDR) for performance, power, and area efficiency in value tier chipsets.
• Conduct architectural analysis and benchmarking of LPAI subsystems, identif...
