We are seeking an experienced Senior SerDes System Engineer to lead the design, development, and optimization of highâperformance SerDes and DSPâbased system solutions for nextâgeneration products. This role requires deep systemâlevel understanding, strong algorithmic expertise, and close collaboration with architecture and hardware teams.
Lead the design and development of SerDes system models, DSP algorithms, and signalâprocessing blocks.
Define system and algorithm specifications aligned with performance, power, and reliability requirements.
Perform systemâlevel modeling, simulation, and tradeâoff analysis across power, performance, and area.
Drive algorithm tuning, validation, and performance optimization across multiple stages of product development.
Collaborate with digital architecture and RTL teams to translate system models into efficient hardware implementations.
Support implementation of DSP and SerDes subsystems in RTL and ensure successful integration into fullâchip designs.
Develop postâsilicon validation strategies, create test and debug scripts, rootâcause complex system issues, and drive performance optimization in lab environments.
Research and apply advanced DSP, equalization, and ML/AIâbased techniques to improve link performance and robustness.
Act as a technical leader, contributing to roadmap definition, crossâteam alignment, and industry best practices.
Bachelorâs or Masterâs degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
Minimum 8+ years of handsâon experience delivering complex, highâperformance SerDes and PHY solutions, from architecture and design through silicon validation and mass production.
Strong practical experience with SerDes and PHY architectures, including DSP and algorithm development for equalization, calibration, adaptation, and systemâlevel optimization.
Deep understanding of highâspeed serial communication standards and techniques for endâtoâend link performance optimization (signal integrity, jitter, noise, and margin analysis).
Proven postâsilicon validation and debug experience, including performance characterization, rootâcause analysis, and design refinement.
Experience with logic design and RTL development; familiarity with firmware or embedded software is a strong advantage.
Demonstrated ability to work at the system level, collaborate across crossâfunctional teams, and drive technical decisions in complex environments.
