Role Posting Log in to save

As a Signal and Power Integrity Engineer, you will join a dynamic team to craft creative signal integrity solutions for complex system design problems. Your daily responsibilities include modeling and optimizing components like vias, connectors, and sockets using 3D EM tools, performing system-level simulations for high-speed interfaces such as NVlink, USB-4, PCIe5, GDDR6, and LP5X. You will also create substrate and board layout guidelines, perform post-layout extractions, and automate data analysis using JMP or MATLAB. The role requires expertise in applied electromagnetics, transmission line theory, and signal processing. You will utilize tools including ANSYS HFSS/Q3D, SIWAVE, ADS, and Cadence Allegro while leveraging VNA, TDR, and DSO hardware. Proficiency in Python for scripting and experience with circuit equalization and PDN evaluation are key to solving these high-speed interconnect challenges.
