TL;DR

As a Signal & Power Integrity Engineer at our cutting-edge technology firm, you will work on developing innovative solutions to complex system design challenges by modeling and optimizing various components using 3D EM tools. Your daily tasks include conducting high-speed interface simulations for NVLink, USB-4, PCIe5, GDDR6, LP5X, and other interfaces, while continuously improving SI models based on lab data and tool updates. You will also create substrate and board layout guidelines, automate simulations, gather and analyze data using tools like JMP and MATLAB, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to optimize package, PCB, ASIC, and mixed-signal circuit designs. The ideal candidate holds an MS or PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering, with a strong background in electromagnetics, waveguides, transmission line theory, and signal processing, along with hands-on experience using ANSYS HFSS/Q3D, SIWAVE, ADS, Ansys Designer, and Cadence Allegro. Proficiency in Python for scripting and automation is also required.
