Job Overview

As a Signal Integrity Engineer for TE Connectivity you will focus on the electrical design, simulation, and verification-validation testing of high speed products in the connector and/or cable assembly industry—targeting high speed communications and connectivity within datacenters. You will be expected to independently work on projects in the areas of signal integrity for product and system design including modeling, simulation, testing and circuit board layout.  You will work collaboratively within a broader cross functional team of mechanical, manufacturing, & operations to execute leading edge products designs.  You will be the subject matter expert for the signal integrity performance of a product/platform beginning with the initial analysis through prototype fabrication & evaluation, and production verification testing.   You will tackle challenging design problems and utilize simulation tools to guide complex designs toward success. 

Job Requirements

Subject matter expert in signal integrity design, simulation and validation activities through product development cycles 

Establishing signal integrity design performance/functional requirements for new products 

Performing signal integrity simulations for multiple high-speed standards on each product. This includes determining the correct simulation methodology and setup to use, as well as a good understanding of the criteria for each interface. 

Performing PCB design schematic and layout reviews 

Creating actionable recommendations based upon design reviews and simulation results 

Guiding connector design and component qualifications from a signal integrity standpoint.  Making data driven decisions about the product functionality and areas for improvement. 

What your background should look like

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Master’s degree preferred 

Work experience 3-5 years in a signal integrity engineering role  

Experience with interconnect design or experience with connector &/or cable/cable assembly design (high speed twinax cables, direct attach copper (DAC) cables) 

Signal integrity analysis tools (Agilent ADS, Ansys HFSS) 

A solid understanding of electromagnetic theory and electrical circuit behavior  

Strong analytical capabilities to interpret simulation and lab data to identify issues and provide solutions to fix identified problem.  SixSigma methodologies or other strong data analytics background a PLUS. 

Familiarity with printed circuit board design, fabrication and assembly.  Proficient in Altium a PLUS 

Experience in project leadership, especially as it applies across design, development & manufacturing teams 

Excellent verbal and written communication skills 

Ability to work in a global environment – able to accommodate varying time zones, fluent in English (verbal/written), able to collaborate with individuals across geographies 

Individual must be highly motivated, a quick learner, and able to work independently
