THE TRUTH ABOUT: Qualcomm is hiring a data center chip architect for snapdragon based reference server designs | History Defined

Qualcomm logo.

Qualcomm is assembling a team of developers to design server processors for the data center. Evidence of this comes via a vacancy posted on the company's own website (noticed by Longhorn). The company is looking for a server system-on-chip (SoC) security architect, and the details of the listing outline that the company is "developing reference platforms based on Qualcomm's Snapdragon SoC, delivering a comprehensive solution that includes hardware, software, reference designs, user guides, SDKs, and more."

The job listing confirms the existence of a 'Qualcomm Data Center' team that is designing a 'high-performance, energy-efficient server solution for data center applications.' While we are, of course, speculating, Qualcomm may plan to use the high-performance energy-efficient cores designed by its Nuvia team for data center applications. This same team developed the company's Snapdragon X processors for laptops, but it originally designed server processors before it was brought into the Qualcomm stable.
