Senior ASIC Packaging SI/PI Engineer (Hybrid)

Anysilicon; San Jose, Northern (CA, KY); Hybrid; USD 120,000 - 190,000; Full time

Job summary

Cisco Silicon One is seeking a Signal and Power Integrity Engineer to join their ASIC team in San Jose, CA. This hybrid role involves developing and verifying packaging for high-performance silicon devices used in data networks.

The ideal candidate has a strong background in high-speed signaling, SI/PI simulations, and experience with Cadence Sigrity, Ansys HFSS, and EM flows. Responsibilities include design rules for ultra-high-speed signaling and post-layout extraction.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering with 4+ years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree with 2+ years, or a PhD with no experience, or equivalent work experience.
• Expertise in high-speed design principles, including Transmission Line Theory and impedance network analysis, particularly for 56G PAM4 SerDes architectures.
• Experience with pre- and post-layout SI/PI simulations using Cadence Sigrity and Ansys HFSS.
• Experience conducting layout reviews and physical design validation using Cadence APD and Ansys EM flows.
• Working knowledge of SPICE for circuit-level analysis.

Responsibilities

• Develop, document, and implement design rules for ultra-high-speed signaling to meet power, performance, and area goals.
• Analyze substrate SI and PI, collaborating with the layout team to optimize solutions across interposer, substrate, and PCB.
• Design and develop ASIC packages for high-volume, high-quality release, including post-layout extraction and reporting.
• Collaborate with system partners, vendors, and design leads to resolve complex technical issues and achieve combined power and signal integrity.
