You are an expert in system-level architecture for serial-link transceivers, with 15+ years of experience and a passion for pushing technology boundaries. You thrive in cross-functional teams, communicate complex ideas clearly, and have a track record of successful product development. Your deep knowledge of high-speed analog/digital design and strong leadership make you an ideal fit.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Architecture: definition of architecture and specifications for the transmitter and receiver
- Modelling: design and maintenance of the system level model
- Signal/Power Integrity: analyzing different signal and power integrity requirements
- Sign-off: system level simulation of the design performance across multiple protocols and channels
- Silicon: qualification and correlation of performance and algorithms in silicon
- Customers: assisting customers on system level performance and algorithmic issues
What You’ll Need:
- You have a MSc or PhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 15+ yrs of experience.
- Familiarity with modelling of SERDES transmitters and receivers in Matlab or similar tool
- Knowledge of circuit topologies in high-speed Rx/Tx SerDes PHY
- Understanding of Tx/Rx equalization techniques.
- Knowledge of CDR architectures and CDR loop dynamics
- Experience in analyzing link budgets for either NRZ and PAM4 high-speed serial links
- Knowledge about common high-speed serial data protocols including Ethernet, OIF, JESD, CPRI
- Experience in lab testing of high-speed serial links
Due to the cross disciplinary nature of this position, key qualifications include one or more of the following…
- Modelling - experience in Matlab/Simulink/C modeling of circuits and systems
