About the role
This role involves supporting the integration of mixed-signal and high-speed SERDES IPs into full-chip silicon designs, packages, and PCBs within the SERDES Analog team.
What you'll do
- Support SERDES IP system simulation, including reference channel definition, creation, and parameter extraction.
- Review and validate Silicon IP parameters in conjunction with package and PCB designs according to interface specifications.
- Participate in package and PCB schematics and layouts review, analyze simulation results, and assist in debugging simulation failures.
- Apply Signal and Power Integrity environment concepts, including SIPI circuits, channels, and IOs simulation.
- Support optimization efforts to meet power, performance, and signal integrity requirements for package and PCB designs.
- Collaborate with internal teams to ensure successful IP, package, and PCB integration and high-quality design delivery.
What you'll need
- B.Sc or M.Sc in Electrical Engineering with one year until graduation.
- Strong background in electromagnetic and waves theory of physics.
- Ability to study and implement learned material and theory in multidisciplinary domains: Analog and Digital Electronics, Signal and Power Integrity.
- Academic grades sheet included with the application.
Nice to have
- Basic or deep knowledge in Keysight ADS and HSPICE simulation setup creation and running.
- Basic or deep hands-on experience in Ansys HFSS, Cadence Clarity, or similar Electromagnetic Simulation tools.
- Basic or deep knowledge of the PCIe and IEEE Ethernet specification.
