Responsibilities

• Lead the system signal integrity design for hardware projects.

• Collaborate with board, system engineers, and design partners, to drive system signal integrity (SI) and cable design. Explore design and manufacturability tradeoffs, and ensure that product functions as required.

• Work with Engineering or Qualification teams on cable qualification, system bring up and design validation.

• Work with Test engineers to interconnect the system system, and bring up qualification, including configuring chips to ensure adequate margin.

• Drive solutions for SI or cabling issues with design engineers, PCB designers, and the System team.

Minimum qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

• 4 years of experience working on system-level signal integrity design, or 3 years of experience with an advanced degree.

Preferred qualifications

• Master's or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or a related field.

• Experience with signal and power integrity design techniques.

• Experience with copper cable design techniques and passive characterization.

• Experience with lab measurements and analysis, including Oscilloscopes, Vector Network Analyzer (VNA), or TDR.

• Understanding of high speed digital interconnect design, component-level and integrated system testing, transmission line theory, and electromagnetic theory.

• Excellent data analysis skills and great attention to detail.
