• Lead or contribute to hardware architecture planning, including CPU/SoC platform selection, Ethernet switch/PHY ICs, Interface solutions, and high-speed interfaces (PCIe, Ethernet SerDes, USB, SATA).
• Design and review schematics, select components, and manage and optimize BOM for cost, quality, and manufacturability.
• Collaborate with layout engineers to optimize PCB stack-up, impedance control, signal, and power integrity.
• Work with RF, DQA, and SI teams to validate functionality, debug issues, and ensure product performance and reliability.
• Define and execute hardware validation test plans, document results, and assist in root cause analysis.
• Experience with EMC/ESD design and debugging techniques.
• Evaluate and recommend updates for DFC (Design for Cost), DFM (Design for Manufacturing), and DFA (Design for Assembly).
• Tear down competitor products to assess system architecture and solution.
• Provide regular updates on project status and coordinate with cross-functional teams to align milestones and deliverables.

Requirements

• MS degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
• Solid understanding of system-level hardware architecture for Networking,  Storage, Server products, and RF fundamentals.
