THE ROLE:
The client needs a person very familiar with all aspects of SERDES PHYs and capable of supporting pre-silicon integration of various kinds of these IP into all client products, as well as providing post-silicon support across a range of test scenarios.

THE PERSON:
You have strong PHY background in SERDES or Memory PHYs. You are a team player who has excellent communication skills and experience collaborating with other engineers. You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills and are willing to learn and ready to take on problems.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Support pre-silicon integration and post-silicon support of SERDES PHY IP.
Support electrical analyses for power, signal, and clock integrity to ensure that SERDES IP operate successfully across many client SoC environments.
Support post-silicon teams for production screening, characterization, compliance, and functional testing of 3rd Party IP.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
SERDES or memory PHY design experience of some kind
Understanding of power noise generation and sensitivity
Understanding of the basics of signal integrity, specifically termination impedance, characteristic impedance, transmission lines
Knowledge of clock distribution and clock specifications like jitter, DCD, etc. a plus.
Some lab experience from functional validation or electrical testing/compliance of SERDES PHYs.

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:
Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering
