Description du poste

Company:

Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

Job Area:

Operations Group, Operations Group > Product Management

General Summary: Qualcomm is seeking a Senior Director of Product Management to lead the multi-generation IoT processor and chipset portfolio across Camera and Industrial markets. This technical product leader will own SoC strategy and definition, balancing customer workloads, platform reuse, competitive differentiation, product economics, and execution across a broad family of intelligent-edge processors.

The ideal candidate combines deep chipset product-management experience with strong compute-architecture judgment and business leadership. The leader will work across Camera and Industrial requirements to create a coherent portfolio, avoiding fragmented vertical-specific silicon while delivering the performance, power, cost, I/O, longevity, and software capabilities each market requires.

Key Responsibilities

Chipset Portfolio & Product Definition

• Own processor portfolio strategy, product segmentation, roadmap, positioning, business cases, pricing inputs, investment priorities, and lifecycle management across Camera and Industrial processors.


• Develop MRDs and PRDs that translate workloads into measurable requirements across CPU, GPU, NPU, DSP and real-time compute, ISP, video, memory hierarchy, security, virtualization, I/O, connectivity, package, thermal design, reliability, and longevity.


• Lead performance, power, cost, die-size, memory-bandwidth, package, feature, and software trade-offs and establish scalable product tiers with maximum IP and platform reuse.


• Maintain detailed competitive analysis and use customer, workload, and market evidence to drive product decisions and executive investment recommendations.

Cross-Functional Platform Execution

• Lead cross-functional execution with architecture, silicon engineering, hardware, systems, validation, operations, and software teams to deliver the chipset and complete hardware platform.


• Align reference hardware, BSP, operating systems and RTOS, middleware, SDKs, AI and vision software, security, validation, and production-readiness plans with SoC milestones.


• Drive products from concept and architecture selection through development, launch, production ramp, sustaining, and roadmap transitions.


• Resolve cross-portfolio dependencies and make clear decisions when customer needs, platform reuse, cost, schedule, and technical risk compete.

Camera, Industrial & Edge AI Requirements

• Work with cross-functional teams and segment product managers to consolidate requirements across camera, industrial and edge-AI segments.


• For Camera, define requirements for ISP, image quality, sensor and multi-camera interfaces, video, computer vision, Edge AI, synchronization, low latency, and power-efficient always‑on operation.


• For Industrial, define requirements for industrial PCs, Edge AI boxes, PLC and soft‑PLC systems, motor control, deterministic and mixed‑criticality compute, long lifecycle, functional safety, and industrial networking.


• Work with Software PDM and Engineering to translate camera, machine‑vision, inspection, control, and industrial Edge AI workloads into silicon, memory, platform, and software requirements.


• Engage strategic OEMs, ecosystem partners, and design customers to influence architectures, secure design wins, and convert customer needs into reusable roadmap decisions.

This is an office‑based position located in San Diego, CA and is expected to comply with the company's onsite work policy.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related technical field.


• 10+ years of Product Management or related work experience.


• Completed advanced degrees in a relevant field may be substituted for up to two years (Master's = one year, Doctorate = two years) of work experience.

Preferred Qualifications

• 20+ years of relevant experience in semiconductor product management, SoC architecture, embedded processors, camera processors, or industrial compute.


• Demonstrated ownership of processor or chipset products from definition through launch, production ramp, and lifecycle management.


• Deep knowledge of heterogeneous compute, multimedia and imaging, Edge AI, memory and I/O architecture, real‑time processing, and hardware/software platform integration.


• Proven ability to lead complex decisions across architecture, silicon, hardware, software, package, validation, operations, sales, and business teams.


• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field; MBA is a plus.
