9‑month engagement

Resumo da oferta

Unknown Client in San Jose, CA is seeking a Hardware Design Engineer to join the Hardware Engineering team, supporting next generation router and network switch products. You will lead high‑speed interface design and drive robust PCB signal and power integrity.

This 9‑month onsite engagement offers cross‑functional collaboration and hands‑on board bring‑up, validation, component selection, and design analysis to deliver reliable hardware solutions.

Qualificações

• Mandatory board bring-up and validation of electrical testing for signal quality of the circuits.
• Mandatory design and validation of power management devices, stress testing systems, and board-level functional testing to ensure product performance in all corner case work conditions.
• Experience building PCB stack-up models and extracting requirements from tools to meet product PCB thickness, electrical signal speed, power architecture, and trace impedance needs.
• Proficiency in pre- and post-PCB signal integrity analysis, including clock jitter analysis, high-speed eye diagram analysis, overshoot/undershoot, crosstalk analysis, DDR batch simulation, and SERDES interface simulation.
• Ability to perform post-PCB power integrity analysis such as voltage drop analysis, current density analysis, plane noise analysis, and decoupling analysis using DC drop and current density analysis, along with thermal analysis for hot spot components and material selection (e.g., heatsink and thermal pad).

Responsabilidades

• Lead hardware architecture design for next generation router and network switch product development, including high-level design and critical component selection.
• Actively work on high-speed interface design and analysis, including support for 800G line cards and other complex signal paths.
• Perform requirement analysis and select key components for major interfaces such as Processor SoC, DDR memory, GPU, FPGA, network switch, PCIe switch, clocking, and power management devices.
• Drive electronic product development through hardware architecture finalization, high level design, schematics capture, and design analysis.
• Support board bring-up and validation of electrical testing for signal quality, ensuring performance across corner-case operating conditions.
