This role is pivotal in ensuring Qualcomm’s custom silicon and server solutions meet the highest standards of uptime and thermal reliability, high performance, and scalability for hyperscale deployments. You will drive system-level custom IP hardware testing and automation on Linux and utilize internal SDK tools, collaborating across hardware, firmware, and software covering critical components (not limited to custom CPU, memory, interconnects, power, Remote management interfaces, use case specific synthetic workloads) the candidate for this role combines software development skills (to build automated tests and tools) with hardware engineering expertise (to understand and stress-test server components). The candidate should have experience working on complex systems (often containing custom ARM-based chips) and are comfortable writing code, are capable of methodical problem-solving, have attention to detail, and clear and concise verbal and written communication skills. Key Responsibilities Lead Test Strategy & Execution: Architect, Design, Develop, and automate independently the feature requests and overall comprehensive test plans for new ARM-based server products, from prototype to test production scaling. Define the feature test scenarios; the implication and coverage across subsystem blocks, code the test scenarios, and execute the developed test cases for CPU, memory, PCIe, power/thermal, and system uptime under demanding workloads.  Report to management on the results, provide trend analysis, root cause and iterative test improvement actions. System Integration & Stress Testing: Direct integrated system tests that exercise hardware, firmware, and OS together. Lead efforts in stress workloads, power cycling, and long-duration soak tests to ensure reliability and uptime. The candidate is responsible for identifying tests and unrooting HW and SW issues early during product development, across early phases of Chip bring-up, Chip sampling to customers, and post commercialization, ensuring that new hardware and firmware combinations are robust and reliable for continuous operation at scale Automation Framework Development: Design, implement, and maintain scalable automated test suites and frameworks (C/C++ cross platform across various environments: UEFI, Linux/Unix OSs, BMC automation, Virtualized OS test automation, including Unix shell scripting) to validate hardware and firmware efficiently across multiple platforms on the server platform and ensure the framework is scalable across SoC products.  The Candidate will develop in and have C++ familiarity to cross compile test frameworks across differencing Operating environments Advanced Debugging & Root Cause Analysis: Perform deep diagnostics and failure analysis across: Hardware and Subsystems / Software and Kernel / Firmware boundaries, support troubleshooting, and devise techniques to quantify and isolate faults - Collaborate with SW and HW design engineers to drive experimentation, debugging, and validate fixes, or workarounds. System-Level Soak Testing: Perform extended thermal cycling, high-load endurance tests.  Conduct integrated system tests that exercise hardware, firmware, and OS together.  This can include booting Linux on new ARM-based servers and running...
