The company
Working on 112G and 224G links and want to move closer to where the tools are built? We’re working with a fast-growing, well-funded AI and applied-physics company in New York, NY, to hire an Electrical Engineer, SerDes & Signal Integrity. Their platform uses physics-grounded AI to verify, debug and optimise hardware for some of the world’s most advanced hardware companies.
The role
As an Electrical Engineer, SerDes & Signal Integrity, you’ll simulate, validate and optimise high-speed digital interconnect from the package breakout through the PCB, connectors and cables. You’ll work with both an applied research team and the product engineering teams. The role suits an SI engineer with 3+ years at a hardware or semiconductor company.
- Model SerDes channels end to end and produce S-parameters, RLGC and COM estimates for PAM4 links at 112G, 224G and above
- Quantify insertion/return loss, NEXT/FEXT, via stub resonance, skew, mode conversion and dielectric/roughness loss against each link’s budget
- Recommend backdrill, antipad and ground-via stitching changes that close margin gaps
- Build production-grade 2.5D/3D EM simulation workflows for via transitions, breakouts, connector launches and package balls
- Correlate simulation with VNA, TDR and BER measurements, and lead root-cause analysis
- Automate de-embedding, port definition and stub optimisation into parameterised pipelines
- Domestic and international travel up to 25%
What you’ll need
- 3+ years in signal integrity, SerDes channel engineering or high-speed digital design
- Hands-on use of 2.5D/3D EM solvers such as Ansys HFSS/SIwave, Keysight ADS or Cadence Sigrity/Clarity, including COM analysis
- Working knowledge of 112G/224G PAM4 and PCIe Gen5/6, and IBIS-AMI link analysis
- Lab experience with VNA, TDR and BERT, plus PCB design in Altium or Cadence OrCAD/Allegro and Python scripting
What’s on offer
- Salary: $200,000 – $250,000
- Medical, dental and vision premiums covered in full for you and your dependants
- 401(k), unlimited PTO and daily lunch
- Relocation support
- On-site in New York, NY, when not travelling
