Electrical Engineer, Hardware Systems

About the role

Design and bring up the electrical hardware that turns our AI accelerator silicon into working systems — boards, power delivery, and system-level electrical design from schematic through lab bring-up and validation. You'll sit at the seam between silicon/packaging and the systems our accelerators run in, and own the board-level hardware that makes them work.

Responsibilities

• Own schematic design and drive PCB layout for accelerator boards and system hardware — high-speed digital, power delivery, and clocking
• Design and validate power-delivery networks (PDN) and rails for high-current accelerator silicon; partner with SI/PI and packaging on the board package interface
• Bring up new boards in the lab — debug, characterize, and validate against spec using scopes, logic/protocol analyzers, and power/thermal instrumentation
• Drive component selection, DFM/DFT for boards, and work with contract manufacturers and vendors through fab, assembly, and yield
• Partner across silicon, packaging, SI/PI, thermal, and firmware/bring-up teams to close electrical issues end to end
• Use and develop AI-assisted tool flows to accelerate design and debug

Requirements

• BS/MS in Electrical Engineering plus 5+ years in board/system-level electrical design for complex high-speed digital systems
• Schematic capture and PCB design (Altium, Cadence Allegro, or equivalent), including high-speed interfaces (DDR/LPDDR, PCIe, SerDes) and power-delivery design
• Hands-on lab bring-up and debug: oscilloscopes, logic and protocol analyzers, power and thermal characterization
• Solid grounding in signal integrity, power integrity, and EMC at the board level

Benefits

• Equity grant per company guidelines
• Medical / dental / vision
• 401(k)
• Standard PTO

Pay

California pay range: $230,000 USD – $280,000 USD (final offers depend on level, location, and skills relevant to the role).
