Role Posting Log in to save

As a Principal Signal Integrity Engineer within the Adaptive and Embedded Computing Group, you will lead signal and power integrity development for next-generation FPGA and adaptive computing products. You will drive technical strategy across silicon, package, board, and system-level designs while mentoring junior engineers and making critical design tradeoff decisions. Your daily work involves performing end-to-end channel simulations for high-speed serial interfaces and memory subsystems, including DDR4, DDR5, LPDDR4, LPDDR5, and HBM. You will correlate simulation results with lab measurements to perform root-cause analysis of complex issues. The role requires expertise in electromagnetic theory, transmission lines, and circuit analysis using tools like ADS and HFSS, with additional experience in SIwave or HSPICE. Proficiency in Python, C++, and Matlab is also required to support high-performance computing platforms and power delivery networks.
