Job Title

Signal Integrity Student Worker Engineer

Role Summary

Support Signal Integrity engineers in electrical design and validation for Client, Edge, and Physical AI platforms. Work on the design, deployment, and optimization of high-speed interconnect architectures and participate in physical design flows for package and platform implementation.

Join the Silicon and Platform Engineering Group to collaborate on scalable, manufacturable solutions and gain hands-on experience in physical design and verification.

Experience Level

Entry-level (student/intern). Bachelor's students: 0–1 years of hands-on physical design experience typical; Master's candidates: no prior professional experience required.

Responsibilities

Primary duties include supporting signal integrity tasks across package and platform designs and participating in verification and signoff activities.

  • Assist physical implementation of package and platform designs, focusing on signal integrity of high-speed interconnects.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve design scalability, automation, and manufacturability.
  • Conduct signal integrity analysis, noise/glitch evaluation, and physical design optimization.
  • Support verification and signoff activities to meet performance and manufacturing standards.
  • Apply theoretical knowledge in practical projects and document analysis results.

Requirements

Must-have qualifications and logistical requirements for initial consideration.

  • Proficiency in English (written and verbal).
