HireSetu's note
The degree clears the gate
The minimum qualification is a bachelor's in engineering, information systems, computer science or a related field. That is the filter. The rest of the posting is written in broad systems language, which is normal for a campus hire that pools graduates across teams.
The preferred line about a year in a large matrixed organization is the one to read carefully. On a campus posting, that points at internships or project work inside a big company, where you had to get things done through other people. If you have that on your CV, it belongs near the top.
Triage and testing fill the week
Expect the job to lean on reading and testing as much as building. The duties run from requirements and interface definition through to implementing features, verifying them, then triaging failures to find root cause. You present those findings to the team, so clear writing carries real weight here.
You work under supervision, and your decisions affect your immediate area. That is a fair picture of a first systems job: you own a slice of a larger problem, and someone senior owns the whole.
Where non-CS branches fit
The brief names hardware, software, architecture, algorithms and validation together, so this is not a pure software posting. Electronics, ECE and instrumentation graduates meet the degree requirement and suit the work, because systems roles are about how pieces talk to each other: interfaces, timing, failure modes.
If your branch sits further away, bring a project where you specified a system, built it and measured whether it met the spec. That story lands better than a list of languages.
Ask which group and which product
Qualcomm runs systems work across several product lines, and this posting keeps the group open. Before you sign, ask which team and which product you would join, and who you would report to. That answer shapes the job more than the title does.
Also ask how the role splits between software validation and systems or hardware analysis, and how the first few months are structured. Campus hires at large chip companies get a defined ramp-up, and its shape tells you what you would really be doing day to day.
