• Debug and conduct root cause analysis on failed devices under test (DUT), collaborating with manufacturing engineers
• Develop and execute Design of Experiments (DOE) plans to identify issues and drive them to resolution
• Correlate measurement results with simulation models in partnership with cable design and SI simulation teams
• Collaborate with design teams on test fixture development and de-embedding methodologies
• Stay current with industry standards such as IEEE 802.3 and PCIe, ensuring test methods remain up-to-date
• Develop and maintain automated test scripts for controlling lab equipment and processing measurement data
• Support additional cable validation procedures, including mechanical reliability tests (e.g., flex/bending)

Required Skills

• Hands-on experience with SI test equipment:
• Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) (up to 110 GHz)
• Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR)
• Strong understanding of signal integrity fundamentals, including Insertion loss, Mode conversion, De-embedding techniques and Electromagnetic (EM) principles
• Solid engineering approach to debugging and DOE, including test planning and execution
• Proficiency in Python for data analysis and test automation
• Familiarity with industry standards such as IEEE 802.3; knowledge of OIF CEI specifications is a plus

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree (B.S.) in Electrical Engineering, Electromagnetics (EM), Radio Frequency (RF), or Signal Integrity-related field
• Minimum of 2+ years of experience in signal integrity or high-speed hardware testing
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Ability to work cross-functionally with design, simulation, and manufacturing teams
• Detail-oriented with a focus on data accuracy and quality
