TL;DR · Senior Signal Integrity Engineer, Cryogenic Interconnects

The Senior Signal Integrity Engineer – Cryogenic Interconnects joins a dynamic team focused on developing next-generation cryogenic interconnect solutions for ultra-high-speed communication. In this role, you will develop accurate 3D EM models for PCB and interconnect structures using HFSS Simulate to model multi-layer PCB designs under cryogenic conditions. You will define high-speed constraints, SI specifications, and design guidelines across RF, materials, and thermal domains. Daily responsibilities include collaborating with SI, materials, mixed-signal, and system teams to drive end-to-end performance while performing lab characterization using network analyzers. You must correlate simulation results with hardware measurements to improve modeling accuracy. Key requirements include expertise in high-frequency broadband design, multi-layer PCB materials, and signal behavior within extreme cryogenic environments to solve complex interconnect challenges.

What you'll do

  • Develop accurate 3D EM models for PCB and interconnect structures using HFSS.
  • Define high-speed constraints and SI specifications across RF, materials, and thermal domains.
  • Design next-generation cryogenic interconnect solutions for ultra-high-speed communication.
  • Perform lab characterization and validation using network analyzers and other measurement tools.
  • Correlate simulation results with hardware measurements to improve modeling accuracy.
  • Analyze interconnect behavior across PCB, package, and system domains.

What we're looking for

  • MS/PhD in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years of experience.
  • Strong experience in signal integrity modeling and simulation using HFSS or similar EM tools.
  • Deep understanding of high-frequency/broadband design and multi-layer PCB design.
  • Knowledge of PCB materials and their electrical and physical properties.
  • Experience with lab measurements using network analyzers and high-speed characterization.
  • Background in cryogenic technologies or a strong interest in developing expertise in this area.
  • Experience in extreme environments or low-loss/ultra-high-speed interconnects (preferred).
