## Description

NVIDIA is seeking a Senior Signal Integrity Engineer to join the Packaging and Systems team. The engineer will drive high-speed SerDes channel design, simulation, and correlation for next-generation advanced packages and data center platforms.

## Responsibilities

- Lead signal integrity design and analysis for high-speed SerDes channels across die, package, board, connector, socket, and cable interfaces.

- Develop and execute simulation flows for advanced packaging technologies, including 2.5D, 3D, and multi-die integration, focusing on channel loss, discontinuities, return path behavior, and crosstalk.

- Build and optimize chip-package-board co-simulation methodologies for next-generation HPC and data center systems.

- Drive SI modeling and design optimization for package escapes, vias, breakouts, interposers, substrates, sockets, and other critical channel structures.

- Perform pre-layout and post-layout signal integrity analysis, create design guidelines, and review layouts to ensure electrical performance targets are met.

- Correlate simulation with lab measurements using TDR, VNA, oscilloscope, and related measurement techniques to improve model accuracy and signoff confidence.

- Work closely with ASIC, package, board, mechanical, thermal, and validation teams to co-optimize electrical performance across the full product stack.

- Support interface bring-up, debug, and margin analysis, and help translate correlation learnings into improved design methods and reusable flows.

- Automate analysis, data processing, and visualization to improve productivity and scale SI methodology across multiple programs.

## Requirements

- BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.

- 8+ years of industry experience in signal integrity, high-speed interconnect design, or related hardware development roles.

- Strong background in electromagnetics, transmission line theory, channel modeling, and high-speed serial link behavior.

- Proven experience with high-speed SerDes design and analysis for advanced packaging and/or large-scale system applications.

- Hands-on experience with industry-standard SI tools such as Ansys HFSS, SIwave, Cadence Sigrity, ADS, HSPICE, or equivalent.

- Experience building and using channel models, S-parameters, IBIS-AMI based flows, and time/frequency-domain analysis techniques.

- Strong understanding of NRZ and PAM4 signaling, equalization techniques, jitter/noise mechanisms, and end-to-end channel budgets.

- Experience with simulation-to-measurement correlation and lab-based model validation using VNA, TDR, and high-speed scope measurements.

- Ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams and drive technical decisions in a fast-moving product environment.

## Preferred Qualifications

- Experience with package and system SI for PCIe, CXL, NVLink, Ethernet, or other high-speed compute and networking interfaces.

- Deep knowledge of advanced packaging structures, substrate technologies, and chip-package-board co-design.

- Background in SI design for data center, AI infrastructure, or HPC platforms.

- Experience improving SI signoff methodology, building reusable automation flows, or driving design rule development.

- Familiarity with mixed-domain tradeoffs across SI, PI, thermal, mechanical, and manufacturability considerations.
