Power Integrity Design & Simulation

• Lead PI design, simulation, and validation for next‑generation high‑speed interconnects and chassis throughout the full product development cycle
• Execute PI COE analysis workflows, including:
  • Performing power integrity simulations for high‑speed interconnect product development, selecting appropriate simulation methodologies and setups tailored to each interface
  • Modeling connectors and chassis with careful consideration of manufacturing constraints and end‑use application requirements
  • Identifying PI challenges, formulating research plans, developing new enabling technologies, and disseminating findings to the broader engineering community

Advanced Testing & Methodology Development

• Innovative testing methodologies to characterize key PI metrics (impedance, voltage ripple, droop, noise coupling)
• Develop and apply AI and big data analytics for predictive PI modeling and performance optimization

Design Optimization & Collaboration

• Optimize material selection and electromagnetic design to improve noise isolation, signal integrity, and high-frequency response characteristics
• Partner with New Product Development (NPD) teams and industry collaborators to shape PI strategies, contribute to technology roadmaps, and influence next‑generation product design directions
