TL;DR · Power Integrity Engineer

As a Power Integrity Engineer within the Hardware Technology Group, you will develop, implement, and verify power integrity solutions for compute and connectivity SoCs used in various mobile and wearable devices. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to drive SoC power delivery architecture, define off-die droop budgets, and design end-to-end power delivery network solutions across the PMU, PCB, module, package, and die. Your daily work involves modeling, simulation, and characterization of voltage regulators and performing model-to-hardware correlation using advanced lab measurements. Key technical requirements include proficiency in Python, AI/ML assisted automation, and 2D/3D EM simulation tools. You will apply expertise in electromagnetics, transmission line theory, and signal integrity to address complex challenges such as on-die inrush, noise coupling analysis, and active droop mitigation for high-performance systems requiring stringent impedance and voltage specifications.

What you'll do

  • Define the power delivery network (PDN) architecture and design solutions for various system requirements.
  • Model, simulate, and characterize power delivery across die, package, module, board, and voltage regulator levels.
  • Perform end-to-end PI studies to meet strict impedance, voltage droop, and noise specifications.
  • Conduct feasibility studies for silicon floorplans, advanced droop mitigation schemes, and system mockup designs.
  • Provide technical implementation guidelines and actionable feedback to silicon, package, and system design teams.
  • Execute model-to-hardware correlation for components, modules, and full product systems.
  • Analyze digital-to-analog/RF noise coupling and manage voltage guard bands.
  • Verify power integrity performance and efficiency using advanced lab measurements and equipment.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor of Science degree and 10+ years of relevant industry experience.
  • Advanced degree in Power/Signal Integrity, Power Electronics, Electromagnetics, Microwave, or Analog/RF Circuit Design (preferred).
  • Experience in PI/SI methodology development, PDN modeling from system to die, and lab correlation/validation (preferred).
  • Proficiency in Python coding and AI/ML assisted automation experience (preferred).
  • Knowledge of 3D/2D EM simulation tools, electromagnetic theory, and transmission line theory (preferred).
  • Experience with lab equipment including VNA, real-time scope, and spectrum analyzer (preferred).
  • Understanding of power supply architecture, multi-stage voltage regulator technologies, and PCB/package design (preferred).
  • Ability to work and communicate efficiently in cross-functional teams.
