  • Troubleshoot moderately complex simulation issues including signal integrity, power integrity, crosstalk, impedance, and eye-diagram analysis.
  • Document product improvement opportunities, submit defect reports, verify fixes, and participate in field testing of new software releases.
  • Evaluate new software releases using real customer use cases and industrial applications.
  • Contribute to internal knowledge bases, technical documentation, and enablement content.
  • Share customer feedback, workflow insights, and technical needs with product development and field teams.

What you'll need

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or a related field with focus in high-frequency electromagnetics.
  • Hands-on experience with Ansys HFSS, SIwave, or comparable CAE, CAD, or EDA simulation tools.
  • Working knowledge in one or more of: signal integrity, power integrity, crosstalk analysis, impedance simulations, or eye-diagram analysis.
  • Understanding of circuit-level and timing analysis for signal integrity applications, including relevant compliance standards.
  • Experience with package, PCB, or connector design workflows.
  • Familiarity with microwave and antenna fundamentals, including S-parameters, wave propagation, and scattering analysis.

Nice to have

  • Master's degree in a related field.
