Full job description

About the Job

Our Hardware group leads the development of electro-optical devices and systems for next-generation data centers.

NewPhotonics is revolutionizing data center processing with novel photonic engines that address power and performance challenges.

We are looking for a Hardware Board Designer to join our dynamic team and play a key role in shaping the technological landscape of our organization.


Requirements

  • Actively participate in hands on PCB design including schematics creation and layout work using industry standard EDA tools.
  • Participate in the development of next-generation electro-optical (EO) devices and sub-systems for high-speed communication.
  • Support electro-optic sub-systems and evaluation boards through schematic design, component selection, characterization, layout considerations, and implementation. Provide guidance on fabrication and assembly.
  • Utilize advanced PCB technologies including mSAP, high-density HDI, and state-of-the-art PCB materials optimized for high-speed signal integrity supporting speeds up to 224 Gbps.
  • Lead board bring-up, characterization, and debug, including high-speed scope and VNA measurements.
  • Collaborate with hardware project teams, including Production, Software/Firmware, Photonics, and System.
  • Support customers by reviewing schematics and PCB layouts, providing guidance to ensure robust design and high-speed performance.
  • Utilize state-of-the-art laboratory equipment.

 

Requirements

What We’re Looking For:

  • B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering.
  • 8+ years as a board designer with experience in executing complex hardware projects.
  • Extensive experience designing high-speed PCBs, covering impedance control, length matching, and SI/PI best practices for standards such as Gigabit Ethernet and PCIe.
  • Hands-on experience with Cadence tools (Allegro, OrCAD) for schematic capture and PCB layout.
  • Experience in design ownership on major blocks/clusters from definition through implementation phases.
  • Strong hands-on laboratory skills and debugging capabilities.
  • Skilled in working with advanced PCB materials and high-density PCB technologies, including complex stackups and fine-pitch routing.
  • Strong project management skills, independence, and excellent interpersonal abilities.
  • Strong understanding of transmission lines, impedance control, crosstalk, and return-path design.
  • Familiarity with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, VNAs, and spectrum analyzers.

 

What Will Make You a Star Candidate:

  • Proven proficiency in ANSYS HFSS / SIwave / 3D Layout for electromagnetic, SI, and PI simulations.
  • Ability to interpret and simulate S-parameters, eye diagrams, and frequency-domain models.
  • Experience in PCB design involving high-speed DSPs, including power integrity, signal-integrity constraints, and high-speed interface routing.
  • Practical experience with high-speed sampling oscilloscopes and optical spectrum analyzers.
  • Experience with optical transceivers.
  • Knowledge of photonic integration technology and its ecosystem.
  • Experience in lab automation using Python-based tools.
