TL;DR · Power Integrity Engineer

The Power Integrity Engineer joins the Hardware Technology Group to develop, implement, and verify Power Integrity solutions for compute and connectivity SoCs. This role involves driving SoC power delivery architecture, defining off-die droop budgets, and designing end-to-end power delivery network solutions across PMU, PCB, Module, PKG, and Die levels. Key responsibilities include conducting end-to-end simulation studies, performing feasibility studies for silicon floorplans, and executing model-to-hardware correlation. The candidate must utilize 2D/3D EM simulation tools, Python coding, and AI/ML assisted automation. Technical requirements include expertise in power electronics, electromagnetics, and transmission line theory, alongside experience with lab equipment like VNAs and real-time scopes. The work addresses complex power and noise specifications, including on-die inrush, digital-to-analog noise coupling, and active droop mitigation.

What you'll do

  • Define the PDN architecture and design solution space for systems with specific power and noise requirements.
  • Conduct end-to-end simulations modeling the die, interposer, package, PCB, and PMU to meet impedance and voltage droop specs.
  • Perform power delivery modeling, simulation, and characterization for the die, package, module, board, and Voltage Regulator.
  • Analyze on-die inrush, off-die droop budgets, PDN signoffs, and digital-to-analog/RF noise coupling.
  • Provide implementation guidelines and actionable feedback to silicon, package, and system design teams.
  • Perform feasibility studies for silicon floorplans, advanced droop mitigation schemes, and voltage regulator tuning.
  • Execute model-to-hardware correlation for components and at the product or system level.
  • Verify power integrity performance and efficiency using advanced lab measurements and equipment.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree required.
  • M.S. or Ph.D. with academic background in Power/Signal Integrity, Power Electronics, Electromagnetics, Microwave, and/or Analog/RF Circuit Design (preferred).
  • Proficiency in Python coding and AI/ML assisted automation experience (preferred).
  • Experience in PI/SI methodology development, PDN modeling from system to die, and lab correlation/validation (preferred).
  • Experience in design and analysis of product power supply solutions (preferred).
  • Understanding of power supply architecture, voltage regulator technologies, PCB/package design trends, and chip supply design (preferred).
  • Deep understanding of Voltage Regulator design principles and electrical performance in system environments (preferred).
  • Knowledge of 3D/2D EM simulation tools, electromagnetic/transmission line theory, and lab equipment like VNA and real-time scopes (preferred).
