Sr./Staff/Sr. Staff - Signal/Power Integrity Hardware Engineer

We are looking for a self-motivated, team-oriented senior signal integrity engineer to develop next generation Solid State Drive (SSD) products. This position requires experience in hardware design and signal and power integrity design. A successful candidate will have a good knowledge of state of the art memory device technologies and interfaces such as PCIe Gen 4, 5 and 6, DDR4/5, ONFI NAND and implementation techniques required for high-speed interfaces. This candidate will need to have a good working knowledge of simulation tools, schematic capture tools and lab equipment (scopes, analyzers, etc.). Expertise in design for optimum signal and power integrity as well as hands-on lab measurements experience is a must. Responsibilities

• Mentoring of engineers. - Provide SI/PI expertise for SSD controller package (SoC) substrate design and SSD PCB design. - Participate in the design of SSD products which includes: design guidelines, reviewing designs, validation of designs and final reports of work designs. - Support PCB back-end process: defining stack-up and HDI via technologies, part placement, setting routing constraints and reviews. - Interface with cross functional teams to ensure the design meets all system level requirements through verification/validation in the lab. - Work closely with SoC, FW, package, and circuit design engineers. - Documentation and communication to design, product and executive teams. - Debug and root cause analysis at all product development stages, as well as customer escalations. Minimum Qualifications

• BS in Electrical Engineering required; MS in Electrical Engineering is a plus. - 10+ years of relevant working experience. - High-speed SSD board designs, pre layout simulation, post layout simulation and design layout guide generation for PCIe Gen4/5/6, DDR4/5, LPDDR4/4x, NVIO and PDN. - Strong fundamentals in 3D/2D EM simulation tools and transmission line theory. - Required experience of EM field solvers, time and frequency domain simulation tools like Sigrity, Allegro, ADS, HFSS, SIWAVE, and HSPICE. - Simulation followed by measurement correlation using Oscilloscope, VNA and TDR equipment. - Excellent understanding of PCB design fundamentals: single end and differential signaling, cross talk (near end and far end), signal loss and impedance control. - Excellent written and verbal communication. Preferred Qualifications

• Technical leader experience. - Familiar with generating and interpreting data & eye diagrams at PCIe GENx speeds: NRZ, PAM3, PAM4, PAMx. - High Frequency pcb low loss board material experience. - Experience with flex circuit design for high speed signaling. - Familiarity with PCIe operation and DRAM operation for optimizing driver and receiver equalization schemes. - Knowledge of IBIS and ability to take common simulation outputs such as S-parameters from various components and determine at the system level that PRD requirements are met. - Optimizing PDN and extracting PDN for PSIJ Analysis. - Familiar with PCISIG, JEDEC and ONFI specifications and compliance.
