Consultant - Embedded Systems & Connectivity (SoC Readiness Program)

Role Overview

Bosch is expanding its internal SoC Readiness and Capability-Building Program to strengthen associate expertise in Semiconductor, Embedded, and Connectivity domains.

We are looking for a Senior Consultant with deep experience in SoC-level development, testing, and system bring-up—preferably with exposure to Qualcomm or similar semiconductor ecosystems. The consultant will mentor and guide engineers through structured learning, hands-on projects, and technical assessments aligned with industry-level SoC development and validation standards.

The role involves both technical mentoring and capability-building, focusing on helping associates gain practical exposure to SoC architecture, firmware integration, debugging, and connectivity stack validation.

Key Responsibilities

Mentorship & Technical Coaching

• Conduct structured mentoring sessions on SoC Architecture, Embedded Systems, Firmware, and Connectivity (Bluetooth, WLAN, Modem, GNSS, etc.).

• Guide associates on system-level problem solving, debugging methodologies, and hardware-software integration.

• Provide direction on interface bring-up (I2C, SPI, UART, PCIe, USB, SDIO) and SoC validation workflows.

• Mentor engineers on working with Qualcomm or similar SoC toolchains, including build systems, logging tools, and diagnostic utilities.

Interview Readiness & Evaluation

• Conduct mock technical interviews simulating semiconductor industry expectations and provide actionable feedback.

• Coach associates on articulating technical concepts, debugging approaches, and communication clarity during interviews.

• Evaluate associates’ readiness through structured assessments and identify areas for improvement.

Capstone Projects & Hands-on Learning

• Define and supervise SoC-oriented capstone projects focusing on embedded firmware, connectivity, and peripheral validation.

• Guide associates on log analysis, debugging, and performance tuning using relevant tools (e.g., QXDM, QCAT, QFIL, QPST, QDSS) or equivalent.

• Ensure that each project delivers measurable skill growth and technical confidence.

Program Coordination & Reporting

• Collaborate with internal training and engineering teams to align mentoring objectives with project and client needs.

• Provide periodic progress dashboards, competency matrices, and readiness summaries for management and review.

• Support the design of structured learning roadmaps mapped to semiconductor skill expectations.
