Principal Engineer, Ethernet Systems Design/Architecture

About the role

The Communications PHY Systems Architect at Analog Devices (NASDAQ: ADI) will model wireline physical layer links targeted for in-vehicle communications and architect DSP functions of those receivers and transmitters for robust and practical implementation. This role involves working on a variety of technology areas and applications, focusing on signal integrity, receiver and transmitter architectures, and DSP architecture.

Responsibilities

• Model vehicle wireline communications links and networks, with emphasis on signal integrity.
• Model receiver and transmitter architectures, including equalizers, echo cancellers, clock and data recovery, and other processing blocks and algorithms required to deliver a robust link.
• Define a DSP architecture for those processing blocks and algorithms that is practical and efficient to implement.
• Collaborate with digital and firmware engineers to implement those functions.
• Guide definition and system-level testing of proof-of-concept wired communication modules.
• Collaborate with and guide the systems and evaluation teams to characterize performance and solve customer issues.
• Support ADI standards engagement by participating in, and making technical contributions to standards-development organizations, such as modeling to provide task group collateral or verifying materials submitted by others.

Requirements

• Minimum BS in Electrical or Computer Engineering and 8+ years relevant experience; MSEE or MSCE and 5+ years of experience preferred.
• Experience with SERDES system concepts (Equalization, CDR, Noise sources, etc.).
• System modeling experience in Matlab/Simulink or similar platforms.
• Strong background in digital signal processing.
• Strong problem-solving skills with an ability to understand and clearly articulate technical issues to peers, management, and customers and solve problems cross-functionally.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills to work effectively with teams spread geographically.
• Understanding of electromagnetic theory related to transmission lines and PCB.
• Self-motivated.
• Dissirable: Familiarity with EMI / EMC compliance standards and testing, experience with SERDES hardware testing and evaluation, knowledge of wireline communications standards, including Ethernet, and/or wireless standards, Analog/mixed-signal design experience.
