Join our highly specialized ASIC team in San Jose as a Signal and Power Integrity Engineer, where you will develop and document design rules for ultra-high-speed signaling to meet performance goals for Cisco platforms. Your day-to-day involves analyzing signal integrity and power integrity issues, collaborating with layout teams to optimize solutions across interposers and PCBs, and ensuring high-volume releases through post-layout extraction and reporting. You will use tools like Cadence Sigrity, Ansys HFSS, and Keysight ADS for simulations and conduct detailed layout reviews using Cadence APD and Ansys EM flows. This role requires expertise in high-speed design principles, transmission line theory, and SPICE for circuit-level analysis, with a focus on 56G PAM4 SerDes architectures and channel modeling. Experience with advanced packaging technologies such as CoWoS and interposer-based designs is preferred.

What you'll do

  • Develop and document design rules for ultra-high-speed signaling in ASIC packaging.
  • Analyze substrate signal integrity and power integrity to optimize solutions across interposer, substrate, and PCB.
  • Design and develop high-volume, high-quality ASIC packages with post-layout extraction and reporting.
  • Collaborate with system partners and vendors to resolve complex technical issues related to power and signal integrity.
  • Conduct detailed layout reviews using tools like Cadence APD and Ansys EM flows for physical design validation.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering with 6+ years of signal and power integrity experience.
  • Expertise in high-speed design principles including Transmission Line Theory and channel modeling.
  • Proficiency in SI/PI simulations using EDA tools like Cadence Sigrity, Ansys HFSS, and Keysight ADS.
  • Experience conducting detailed layout reviews and physical design validation with tools such as Cadence APD.
  • Working knowledge of SPICE for circuit-level analysis and performance validation.
