Job summary

Capgemini is seeking an hardware architecture engineer to drive the design of next-generation router and network switch products. You will engage in high-speed interface work (800G and beyond) and perform component selection for critical interfaces such as SoC, DDR memory, GPU, FPGA, PCIe, and clocking networks.

The role requires finalizing hardware architecture, schematics, PCB stack-up modeling, and extensive signal/thermal integrity analyses.

Qualifications

• Experience in hardware architecture and router/network switch design.
• Ability to select key components for main interfaces (SoC, memory, FPGA, PCIe, clock, power).
• Experience with PCB design processes including SI/PI analysis.

Responsibilities

• Hardware architecture design for next-gen router and network switch products.
• Work on high-speed interfaces including 800G lines cards and complex signals.
• Requirement analysis and selection of key components for major interfaces.
• Hardware architecture finalization, schematic capture, and design analysis.
• PCB stack-up modeling to meet thickness, speed, power, impedance requirements.
• Perform SI/PI analyses: clock jitter, eye diagrams, overshoot, crosstalk, SERDES.
• Thermal analysis of hotspots and material selection for cooling.
• Collaborate with software, layout, mechanical, and application teams.
• Board bring-up and validation of electrical testing; power management device testing.
