TL;DR · Signal Integrity Engineer - Serial IO Interface

As a Signal Integrity Engineer at Apple, you will join the SOC development team to focus on high-speed serial interface signal integrity and power integrity across silicon, package, and board levels. Your daily tasks include electrical design and physical modeling of high-speed interfaces like USB or PCIe, collaborating with circuit designers for optimization, and executing test plans to validate designs. You will also work closely with product engineering teams to debug issues and enhance yield in Apple’s products. Essential skills include experience with signal and power integrity, proficiency in 3D/2D EM simulation tools, and familiarity with lab equipment such as VNAs and real-time scopes. This role demands a strong background in electrical engineering and hands-on experience with high-speed serial interfaces to tackle complex design challenges at scale.

What you'll do

  • Define and implement interface specifications for high-speed serial interfaces.
  • Perform 3D model extractions and simulations to optimize design across components.
  • Validate signal and power integrity through test plans and lab equipment correlation.
  • Drive co-design optimization across SOCs, packages, and systems for Apple products.
  • Work with circuit design teams to enhance SI/PI modeling, simulation, and characterization.

What we're looking for

  • Experience with high-speed serial interfaces like USB or PCIe.
  • Proficiency in signal integrity (SI) and power integrity (PI) modeling, simulation, and characterization.
  • Expertise in 3D model extraction and simulations for design optimization and validation.
  • Familiarity with lab equipment including VNA, TDR, real-time scope, and spectrum analyzer.
  • Strong background in EM simulation tools and transmission line theory.
  • Experience working on product package/board design and analysis.
  • Excellent communication skills and a solid academic foundation.
