Signal Integrity Engineer

Job Title: Signal Integrity Engineer
Location: Research Triangle Park, North Carolina - 27709 - Onsite
Contract: 12 months
Pay Range- $50-$55/hr

Roles and Responsibilities:


SI/PI Simulation: Run pre- and post-layout 2D/3D simulations (Cadence PowerSI, ADS, HSPICE) to optimize high-speed channels and power distribution networks.


Manufacturing Troubleshooting: Provide engineering support for operations and production, root-causing high-speed signal failures and yield issues from the factory floor.


Lab Validation: Use lab equipment (VNA, TDR, high-bandwidth oscilloscopes) to measure S-parameters, impedance, and eye diagrams, correlating physical data with simulations.


Interface Optimization: Work with high-speed links and interfaces (SerDes, PAM4, NRZ, DDR) to ensure signal compliance and jitter reduction.


Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with hardware design, test engineering, and manufacturing teams to review layouts, resolve DFM challenges, and validate ECOs.


Minimum Requirements:


Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.


3-5 years of relevant experience in signal integrity or hardware design.


Knowledge of transmission line theory and high-speed circuit fundamentals, with experience using signal-integrity simulation and 2D/3D field-solver tools.


Desired Skill:


Experience with laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, TDR, or VNA.


Experience with IBIS, HSPICE, ADS, MATLAB, Cadence PowerSI AC/DC, or Allegro.


Exposure to high-speed interfaces and links such as SerDes, LVDS, CML, DDR, NRZ, or PAM4, including high-speed PCB/package development or PI analysis.


Additional role, initiative and group information:


Engineering support for operations and manufacturing production.


3 years of experience are required.
