TL;DR · Senior Signal and Power Integrity Engineer, Hardware

Senior Signal and Power Integrity Engineer - Hardware joins a dynamic team to develop creative signal integrity solutions for complex system design problems. The role involves performing system-level simulations of high-speed NVlinks 200Gbs+, USB-4, PCIe5, GDDR6, and LP5X while modeling vias, connectors, sockets, and various components in 3D EM tools. Responsibilities include designing and optimizing Power Delivery Networks across packages and PCBs, performing simulation automation, and gathering data using JMP or MATLAB. The candidate will utilize ANSYS HFSS/Q3D, SIWAVE, and spice-based time domain simulations to evaluate PDN. Technical requirements include experience with standards like PCIe, USB, SATA, HDMI, HBM, DDR5, and LPDDR5X. Proficiency with VNA, TDR, DSO, and ParBERT is preferred to address system-level timing and loss budgets involving silicon, package, and board impairments in high-speed interface designs.

What you'll do

  • Develop creative Signal Integrity solutions for complex system design problems.
  • Perform system-level signal integrity simulations for high-speed interfaces like NVLink, USB-4, PCIe5, and GDDR6.
  • Model vias, connectors, sockets, and other components using 3D EM tools.
  • Design and optimize Power Delivery Networks (PDN) across packages and PCBs.
  • Improve SI/PI models through physical lab measurements and correlation.
  • Automate simulation processes and perform data analysis and visualization using JMP or MATLAB.
  • Optimize package, PCB, ASIC, and mixed-signal circuits in a cross-functional capacity.

What we're looking for

  • BS/MS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.
  • 3+ years of industry experience.
  • Experience with SI/PI on standards such as PCIe, USB, SATA, HDMI, HBM, DDR5, GDDR6, or LPDDR5X.
  • Hands-on experience with 3D modeling tools like ANSYS HFSS/Q3D and 2.5D tools like ANSYS SIWAVE.
  • Experience in PDN evaluation using layout extraction tools for packages and PCBs and spice-based time domain simulations.
  • Background in system-level timing or loss budgets including silicon, package, and board impairments.
  • Familiarity with lab measurement equipment such as VNA, TDR, DSO, and ParBERT.
  • Proficiency in data analysis and visualization using JMP or MATLAB.
