Job summary

Oxide Computer Company is seeking an electrical design engineer to design and sustain high-speed PCBs for rack-scale computing hardware. You will take boards from concept through testing and manufacturing support, coordinating with software and mechanical teams.

You'll work on signal and power integrity, regulator considerations, and ensuring compliance with industry standards, while documenting decisions and supporting sustaining engineering.

Qualifications

• Experience designing and developing printed circuit boards end-to-end (prototyping and testing).
• Familiarity with high-speed interfaces (DDR4/DDR5) and buses such as I2C, SPI, UART.
• Ability to simulate and test designs and investigate signal and power integrity concerns.
• Care in creating readable schematics and thorough technical documentation.
• Willingness to learn new technologies when documentation is limited.
• Familiarity with GitHub or willingness to learn basic software development workflows.

Responsibilities

• Design circuits for high-speed boards and simulate and test the resulting designs.
• Collaborate with software engineers on system behavior and with mechanical engineers on servers, switches, and rack integration.
• Address signal integrity, power integrity, thermal, and cabling considerations across the system.
• Define and support functional tests used in manufacturing.
• Help ensure boards meet applicable industry standards and regulatory requirements.
• Document design decisions and support products through sustaining engineering.

Job description

Role overview

Design and sustain electrical systems for integrated, rack-scale computing hardware, taking board designs from early concepts through testing and manufacturing support. The work spans hardware and software co-design, with close coordination across electrical and mechanical engineering.

Responsibilities

• Design circuits for high-speed boards and simulate and test the resulting designs.
• Collaborate with software engineers on system behavior and with mechanical engineers on servers, switches, and rack integration.
• Address signal integrity, power integrity, thermal, and cabling considerations across the system.
• Define and support functional tests used in manufacturing.
• Help ensure boards meet applicable industry standards and regulatory requirements.
• Document design decisions and support products through sustaining engineering.

Requirements

• Experience designing and developing printed circuit boards, including prototyping and testing boards end to end.
• Familiarity with high-speed interfaces such as DDR4/DDR5 and PCIe, plus buses such as I2C, SPI, or UART.
• Ability to simulate and test designs and investigate signal and power integrity concerns.
• Care in creating readable schematics and thorough technical documentation.
• Comfort learning new technologies when documentation is limited.
• Familiarity with GitHub or willingness to learn basic software development workflows.

Benefits and work setup

• Remote-first work with at least four hours of overlap with Pacific Time.
• Flexible working hours.
• Medical, dental, and vision plan premiums covered for employees and dependents.
