Job Description:

Job Overview

As a Staff Product Dvl Engineer in the Signal Integrity team, you will focus on the electrical design, simulation, and verification-validation testing of high-speed products in the connector and/or cable assembly, radio system industry—targeting high-speed communications and connectivity within data centers and wireless infrastructure. You will be expected to independently work on projects in the areas of signal integrity for product and system design including modeling, simulation, testing, and circuit board layout. You will work collaboratively within a broader cross-functional team of mechanical, manufacturing, & operations to execute leading-edge product designs. You will be the subject matter expert for the signal integrity performance of a product/platform beginning with the initial analysis through prototype fabrication & evaluation, and production verification testing. You will tackle challenging design problems and utilize simulation tools to guide complex designs toward success.

Short Description

• Subject matter expert in signal integrity design, simulation, and validation activities through product development cycles
• Establishing signal integrity design performance/functional requirements for new products
• Performing signal integrity simulations for multiple high-speed standards on each product. This includes determining the correct simulation methodology and setup to use, as well as a good understanding of the criteria for each interface.
• Performing PCB design schematic and layout reviews
• Creating actionable recommendations based on design reviews and simulation results
• Guiding connector design and component qualifications from a signal integrity standpoint. Making data-driven decisions about the product functionality and areas for improvement.

What your background should look like:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent work experience
• 5+ years of relevant work experience in electrical design, RF design, or PCB design
• Proficient with signal integrity analysis tools (Agilent ADS, Ansys HFSS, CST, or equivalent tools)
• A solid understanding of electromagnetic theory and electrical circuit behavior
• Strong analytical capabilities to interpret simulation and lab data to identify issues and provide solutions to fix identified problems.
• Familiarity with printed circuit board design, fabrication, and assembly.
• Fluent in English (both verbal and written) to facilitate global communication both internally and with external customers.
• Ability to work in a global environment – able to accommodate varying time zones and capable of collaborating with individuals across geographies.
• Individuals must be highly motivated, a quick learner, and able to work independently
