The Baseband Hardware/Systems Engineer joins the Central Baseband Hardware Systems team to develop baseband and embedded system reference designs. This role focuses on the co-design of silicon, package, and PCB interconnect technologies for application processors and power management ASICs. You will define system requirements, develop platform architectures for mobile, AR/VR, wearable, and compute products, and implement high-speed digital hardware including schematic capture, BOM development, and layout support. Key responsibilities involve performing signal integrity and power integrity analysis for memory subsystems and power delivery networks while integrating interfaces like PCIe, USB, Ethernet, SPI, and I2C. You will utilize tools such as Xpedition or Allegro to solve complex hardware challenges. The role addresses the technical challenge of integrating high-performance SOCs with high-speed memories, displays, and 5G RF transceiver cards into diverse consumer product form factors.
