System Level Architect / Principal Engineer

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… Modelling - experience in Matlab/Simulink/C modeling of circuits and systems Communications theory – equalization, coding, noise/crosstalk filtering Digital – background in digital signal process (DSP) Analog – background in high-speed analog CMOS circuit design Hardware – awareness on per-protocol handing of RX and TX adaptation ; hands on experience in measurement of transceiver performance 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 #J-18808-Ljbffr
