Amphenol ICC
Amphenol Communications Solutions (ACS) – Storage & Server I/O (SSIO) group – is seeking a Signal Integrity Engineer who's passionate about high-speed design, simulation, and measurement.
In this role, you'll be at the forefront of next-generation interconnect technology, helping define, model, and validate electrical performance for high-speed connectors and cable assemblies used in today's most advanced data center, storage, and server systems.
You'll collaborate across engineering, R&D, product development, marketing, and customer teams worldwide to drive innovation and ensure SSIO products meet the highest standards of signal integrity, quality, and performance.
Key Responsibilities Technical Leadership & Development
Research and develop new high-speed interconnect technologies within the SSIO product family by staying on top of emerging trends, patents, and competitive solutions.
Predict and define performance limits for new connector technologies and influence next-generation data center and server I/O standards.
Use tools such as CST Studio Suite, ANSYS HFSS, and other 2D/3D solvers to model high-speed connectors and cable structures for SSIO applications.
Design and analyze high-speed PCB test fixtures and interconnect systems aligned with standards like PCIe®, SFF, and SAS/SATA.
Simulation, Testing & Validation
Execute full SI analysis from modeling to lab validation using VNAs, TDRs, oscilloscopes, and bit‑error‑rate testers (BERTs).
Perform link‑level simulations to support SSIO product design and interpret results to guide electrical and mechanical improvements.
Document findings and recommendations in clear, professional technical reports and presentations.
Cross‑Functional Collaboration
Work side‑by‑side with design and product engineers to refine SSIO concepts for both mechanical and electrical optimization.
Provide technical guidance to global teams and customers on performance, testing, and modeling.
Support sales and marketing with technical collateral, data models, and presentations for SSIO product launches.
Customer & Industry Engagement
Deliver accurate S‑parameter models and encrypted simulation data to key servers and storage OEM customers.
Conduct SI analysis in response to customer requests and troubleshooting needs for SSIO solutions.
Represent Amphenol in industry standards committees (e.g., PCI‑SIG) to influence and align with next‑generation storage and server I/O specifications.
Requirements / Qualifications Education:
Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, Physics, or related field with 5+ years of current industry experience; or
Master's degree in electrical engineering, Physics, or related field with 2+ years of current industry experience.
Technical Skills:
Expertise in signal integrity simulation and analysis (CST, HFSS, ADS, or equivalent).
Experience with high‑speed serial standards (PCIe, SAS/SATA, SFF, etc.).
Strong understanding of transmission line theory, differential signaling, and electromagnetic behavior.
Hands‑on experience with lab test equipment (VNA, TDR, BERT).
Familiarity with storage, server, and interconnect system design is highly preferred.
Soft Skills:
Strong communication and presentation skills — able to translate complex data into clear conclusions.
Collaborative mindset with a passion for innovation and problem‑solving.
Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, global engineering environment that embodies Amphenol's entrepreneurial culture.
