About the Role
You will lead the verification and characterization of high-speed electro-optic links across silicon and system programs. You will perform bench measurements, develop electrical and optical channel models, investigate signal-integrity issues, support silicon bring-up, and build automation tools for characterization.
Requirements
- MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Photonics, or Physics with 8+ years of experience, or BS or MS with 10+ years of experience
- Ownership of verification strategy for a full silicon or system program
- Expertise in 56G, 112G, and 224G+ serial links, SerDes equalization, and signal integrity
- Hands-on lab experience leading complex investigations
- Python or MATLAB proficiency for automation frameworks
- Proficiency with VNA, oscilloscopes, BERTs, TDRs, ADS, HFSS, Cadence, and COMSOL
- Track record of mentoring engineers
Responsibilities
- Run hands-on lab characterization and debug of high-speed electrical and optical hardware
- Build system-level electrical, optical, and EO channel models and correlate them with bench measurements
- Own link-budget and verification methodology
- Characterize eye diagrams, BER, jitter, equalization, and channel impairments
- Support silicon bring-up and root-cause debug with analog, package, PCB, and SerDes teams
- Influence chip, package, and system architecture trade-offs based on bench findings
- Mentor Senior and Staff engineers while remaining hands-on in the lab
- Build automation tools to accelerate characterization work
