Amphenol ICC
Principal Signal Integrity Engineer – HSIO Cables
Amphenol ICC, Santa Clara, California, us, 95053
RESPONSIBILITIES:
ThePrincipal Signal Integrity Engineer will serve as a technical leader within the high speed copper based I/O cable assembly design team. This role will make a strategic engineering impact across advanced datacenter, cloud, 5G, storage, and enterprise I/O applications involving digital communication technologies up to 224 Gbps per lane.
Design, simulation, characterization, and application of high speed electrical cable assemblies
Provide SI technical leadership, own major engineering projects, and mentor new SI hires
Work regularly in the west coast office for lab measurements, validation, and debugging. Support in setting up the local SI lab including identifying and purchasing required equipment
Component development and customer support during new product introduction
Share knowledge and pursue continuous improvement in methods and workflows
Collaborate with multi disciplinary teams in the development of next generation high speed I/O interconnect products
Provide solutions to customers across many sectors with their high speed data transmission needs, identifying and resolving signal integrity issues
Engage directly with customers to debug system level SI issues and answer high level technical questions
Own project execution by ensuring all tasks are completed and by driving progress across functions, not by delegating responsibility upward
Support Sales and Applications Engineers to develop strategies for product break in at existing and new accounts based on SI and electrical engineering expertise
Support global factories for production ramp up, including methods, build experiments, measurement development, and establishing test limits
Travel 10 to 20 percent, primarily to Nashua to coordinate with the design team. Occasional customer visits as engineering support but not as the primary customer contact
Mentor SI engineers and influence cross functional engineering processes and standards
QUALIFICATIONS
BS in Electrical Engineering. MS or PhD strongly preferred
Deep understanding of electromagnetic principles for digital signal integrity
Experience with SI and EM simulation tools such as Ansys HFSS and Designer, CST Microwave
Experience with SI measurements and debugging using TDR, VNA, pattern generators, error detectors, and similar equipment
Hands on experience with frequency domain and time domain component and circuit characterization including understanding of test and calibration techniques
Experience in component design and application of high speed cables or connectors into communications equipment is a plus
Experience with MATLAB, ADS, and HSPICE is a plus
Proven track record of leading SI development for advanced cable or connector products
Ability to drive architecture, influence material and process selection, and provide senior level technical direction across programs
Strong ability to independently lead SI investigations, manage multi site collaboration, and support lab based measurement and debug activities
