General Summary:

We are looking for a highly skilled and passionate Sr. Staff Engineer to join our Display Software Team .

In this role, you will be a key technical leader responsible for the design, development, and optimization of the display subsystem for Qualcomm’s next-generation IoT platforms.

You will work on a diverse range of software layers, from low-level Linux kernel drivers (DRM/KMS) to high-level user-space compositors (Weston/Wayland and Surface Flinger).

Your expertise will help drive innovative features such as multi-display concurrency, high-resolution bridge integrations, and advanced power management solutions.

Level of Responsibility

As a Sr. Staff Engineer, you are expected to:

Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance to a team of engineers.
Lead complex, cross-functional projects from requirements gathering to commercialization.
Mentor junior and senior engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence.
Act as a subject matter expert (SME) for display technologies within the organization.

Principal Duties and Responsibilities

Architect and Develop high-performance display drivers using the Linux DRM/KMS framework for Qualcomm’s Snapdragon platforms.
Integrate and Bring-up third-party display hardware, including MIPI DSI panels and external bridge chips (DSI-to-HDMI, DP-to-HDMI, DSI-to-LVDS).
Optimize Subsystem Performance by managing hardware resources (DPU pipes, bandwidth) and implementing power-saving techniques like VESA DSC and low-power display modes.
Debug Complex Issues across the software stack using JTAG, Lauterbach, and system-level trace tools.
Collaborate with Cross-Functional Teams (GPU, Video, Multimedia, and Hardware Design) to ensure seamless integration and end-to-end feature delivery.
Lead Mainlining Efforts to upstream display drivers and features to the Linux kernel and open-source communities.
Drive Continuous Improvement in software quality through code reviews, unit testing, and automated validation frameworks.

Required Qualifications

Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or Electrical Engineering.
Experience: 14+ years of experience in embedded software development with a focus on display subsystem
Programming: Expert-level skills in C and C++ .
OS Internals: Strong understanding of Linux/Android kernel internals , including device drivers, memory management (ION/DMA-BUF), and synchronization primitives.
Display SW: In-depth experience with the Linux DRM/KMS architecture and libdrm .
Display Protocols: In-depth knowledge of display interfaces such as MIPI DSI, DisplayPort (DP), eDP, and HDMI .

Preferred Skills

Experience with Post-Silicon bring-up and hardware-software co-verification.
Knowledge of display technologies like HDR10/10+, HDCP, CEC , and color management.
Familiarity with graphics buffer management ( GBM ) and allocator frameworks ( Gralloc ).
Experience with Wayland/Weston compositor development or Android Graphics stack (SurfaceFlinger, HWC).

Minimum Qualifications:

Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 6+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience.

OR
Master's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 5+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience.
