The Senior Power Integrity Co-Design Engineer joins the SCG Architecture team to architect and deliver di/dt mitigation across silicon, package, board, and platform levels. This role serves as the connective tissue between architecture, silicon, and platform teams, translating product noise targets into shipped specifications while feeding findings back into future designs. Responsibilities include managing co-design trade-offs regarding voltage-noise, developing Sim-to-Si correlation methodologies, prototyping next-generation features like transient sense and droop response, and leading show-stopper noise bugs during bringup. The candidate must possess expertise in di/dt analysis, voltage droop, PDN design, decap budgeting, and voltage regulator response. Required skills include hands-on experience with scopes, probes, and DAQ systems for characterization. The role addresses the technical challenge of balancing V/F, power, noise, reliability, and thermal constraints within a multi-rail, multi-domain PDN at the SoC level.
Architect voltage-noise mitigation across the full stack including silicon, package, board, and platform levels.
Define product-level voltage noise targets and drive them to closure for final shipment sign-off.
Develop and own the Sim-to-Si correlation methodology to identify discrepancies between models and physical silicon.
Prototype and codify next-generation noise features such as transient sense and droop response.
Resolve critical show-stopper noise bugs during the hardware bringup phase.
Manage architecture-level trade-offs between voltage, frequency, power, reliability, and thermal constraints.
Translate product noise targets into technical specifications for cross-functional engineering teams.
What we're looking for
BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
5+ years of experience in silicon power integrity, voltage noise, or PDN.
Deep expertise in at least one area: di/dt analysis and mitigation, voltage droop, PDN design, transient noise, decap budgeting, or voltage regulator response.
Experience with hands-on silicon bringup, characterization, and Sim-to-Si correlation using scopes, probes, and DAQ systems.
Ability to drive architecture-level co-design tradeoffs across power, reliability, and thermal constraints in a matrixed environment.
Proven ability to document technical specifications and lead noise bug resolution during product bringup.
Patents or publications in power integrity, voltage noise, PDN, or di/dt mitigation (preferred).
Experience with GPU, CPU, AI accelerator silicon, or applying ML/AI to noise modeling and feature optimization (preferred).
