What You’ll Do:

As a Senior Signal Integrity Engineer at Cisco, you will be at the cutting edge of high-speed PCB design. You will define and optimize high-speed SerDes interfaces (>50Gbps), DDR interfaces, and system interconnects. Your role will involve providing technical analysis, modeling, and simulation to ensure our designs meet stringent signal integrity and power integrity requirements. You will create detailed design guidelines, address SI/PI-related issues, and validate designs through lab measurements and performance testing. Additionally, you will coordinate various performance and compliance tests, including SI/PI Validation Testing, EMI Testing, Electrical Design Validation Testing, and Optical Design Validation Testing.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:

  • MSEE with over 5+ years of experience in signal integrity.
  • Hands-on experience in chip and system-level signal integrity and power integrity analyses.
  • Familiarity with high-speed serial interface channel design and signal integrity considerations.
  • Understanding of transmission line theory and microwave engineering concepts such as Maxwell equations and S-parameters.
  • Knowledge of PCB board stack-up/construction.
  • Proficiency with simulation and modeling tools like Hspice, ADS, HFSS, and PowerSI.
  • Familiarity with lab equipment like oscilloscopes, VNAs, and spectrum analyzers.

PREFERRED REQUIREMENTS:

  • Experience in co-leading signal integrity work for high-speed boards.
  • Experience in designing system high-speed SerDes interfaces.
  • Experience performing I/O simulation for PCB interfaces and providing PCB routing rules for CAD teams.
  • Experience with high-speed SerDes test chip evaluation and interoperability testing.
  • Experience analyzing power delivery networks for critical high-speed interfaces on system boards.
  • Experience with SerDes tuning and link optimization on prototypes and system bring-up.
  • Ability to be a self-starter, work independently, and collaborate effectively in teams.

But “Digital Transformation” is an empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it.)
