Category Engineering Hire Type Employee Job ID 6936 Remote Eligible Yes Date Posted 22/10/2024 System Level Architect / Principal Engineer
You will be part of an R&D team developing >100Gbps NRZ and PAM4 serial-link transceivers as part of our Enterprise Serdes team for PCIe and Ethernet protocols. We are looking for an engineer with theoretical knowledge and practical experience to contribute and to lead the team. You will work with a cross functional design team of analog and digital designers, and hardware engineers.
You will be involved in all stages of development including:
Architecture : definition of architecture and specifications for the transmitter and receiver
Modelling: design and maintenance of the system level model
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
You have a MSc or PhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering.
Due to the cross disciplinary nature of this position, key qualifications include one or more of the following…
