Job description

AttoTude is a cutting‑edge deep‑tech startup (founded 2024) transforming how data moves inside AI data centers. Headquartered in Menlo Park, CA, we are pioneering next‑generation terahertz (THz) interconnect technology for hyperscale computing. AttoTude is pioneering a new class of data center interconnects using terahertz (THz) signaling over guided media.

Platform Includes:

• AttoEngine – custom ASIC enabling ultra‑high‑frequency communication
• AttoWire – low‑loss transmission medium optimized for THz signals

Key Advantages:

• 200–800+ Gbps per lane
• Lower latency and power consumption
• Scalable, dense connectivity for AI clusters

What we're looking for:

Responsibilities:

• Maintain and operate component‑level RF/mmWave testbed
• Perform probe measurements: S‑parameters, linearity, noise figure, phase noise
• Collect and analyze data from DC to 1 THz frequencies
• Perform post‑processing & statistical analysis to guide design decisions

Qualifications:

• RF & mmWave testing (S‑parameters, jitter, ENOB, compression)
• Experience in handling, care and maintenance of GSSG and GSG RF probes, with both coaxial and waveguide feeds
• Small & large‑signal modeling for IC design
• Statistical analysis & data interpretation
• Programming: Python, MATLAB, C/C++, C#

Annual Salary Range: $50,000—$150,000 USD
