About the role
Signal Integrity and Power Integrity (SIPI) Engineers at Meta design, analyze, and validate SIPI aspects of electrical systems for next-generation hardware products and platforms. They collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and external partners to deliver robust, high-performance solutions from concept through deployment, ensuring Meta’s hardware meets the highest standards for performance, reliability, and electromagnetic compatibility across both product and infrastructure domains.
Responsibilities
- Architect and lead system-level Signal Integrity Power Integrity design, simulation, and validation for advanced hardware products, including pre-layout and post-layout analysis of high-speed interfaces and power distribution networks (PDN)
- Develop, implement, and continuously improve SIPI methodologies, standards, and guidelines for design, simulation, and validation
- Drive SIPI technical strategy and influence system architecture, design trade-offs, and manufacturing processes across multiple projects and teams
- Lead cross-functional collaboration with electrical, silicon, packaging, PCB layout, firmware, mechanical, software, manufacturing, and external partners to deliver integrated solutions
- Guide vendors and suppliers in developing and validating high-speed signaling solutions, including interconnects, substrates, and compliance testing
- Own SIPI validation strategy, including advanced engineering test plans, lab measurements, and compliance for high-speed interfaces (e.g., PCIe, DDR, MIPI, USB, Ethernet, etc.)
- Troubleshoot and resolve complex SIPI-related design issues using simulation and lab data
- Drive failure analysis, root cause investigations, and design of experiments
- Mentor and develop engineers, foster knowledge sharing, and contribute to organizational initiatives and process improvements
- Communicate technical findings, recommendations, and reports clearly to cross-functional stakeholders and leadership
- Stay current with industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in SIPI, and proactively assess and integrate new approaches to maintain Meta’s leadership in hardware engineering
Requirements
- Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, or relevant technical field, and/or equivalent practical experience
- 8+ years of experience in SIPI simulation, measurement, or electrical design or a relevant technical field
- Experience delivering electrical products, subsystems, or research prototypes from concept through validation, and into high-volume manufacturing, large-scale deployment, or successful technology transfer to product teams
- Advanced knowledge of SIPI fundamentals, including impedance control, transmission line theory, PDN characterization, and/or electromagnetic compatibility
- Expertise with industry-standard SIPI simulation and modeling tools (e.g., Cadence Sigrity, Ansys SIwave, Keysight ADS, HFSS, Hyperlynx, CST Microwave Studio, HSPICE, or similar)
- Experience with advanced lab equipment for SIPI validation (e.g., TDR, VNA, high-speed oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, compliance test fixtures, or similar)
- Experience with PCB and/or flex design and manufacturing processes, or similar technology
- Experience with high-speed electrical interfaces (e.g., DDR, PCIe, MIPI, USB, Ethernet, or similar)
- Effective communication and collaboration skills for
