JOB TITLE: 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, Package, and Die levels. Key responsibilities include conducting end-to-end simulations, performing feasibility studies for silicon floorplans, and executing model-to-hardware correlation. The position requires proficiency in Python coding, AI/ML assisted automation, and 3D/2D EM simulation tools. Candidates must apply knowledge of electromagnetic and transmission line theory, voltage regulator design, and analog/RF noise coupling analysis. The work focuses on meeting stringent impedance and voltage droop specifications for various hardware products through rigorous modeling, characterization, and lab validation using VNAs and real-time scopes.
