Job Summary : Principal SerDes Technology Expert

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Principal SerDes Technology Expert to lead the development of next-generation connectivity solutions. Your journey will begin by spearheading the design and optimization of high-performance Active Electrical Cables (AECs), enhancing electrical integrity and signal quality across demanding link budgets. Building on this foundation, you will architect and implement SerDes technology tailored for PCIe 7.0, tackling challenges such as lane equalization, jitter tolerance, and power efficiency. Finally, your work will expand into integrating cutting-edge optical interconnects and optocouplers, driving innovations in retimer technologies and hybrid signaling frameworks.

This role directly impacts the performance and reliability of AI and cloud infrastructure—empowering massive data throughput, energy-efficient links, and scalable system architectures.

Responsibilities :

• Lead the architecture and design of high-speed SerDes for PCIe 7.0, targeting data rates of 128 GT / s and beyond.
• Spearhead the development and integration of advanced optical interconnects and retimer solutions within our Smart Cable Modules™.
• Define and specify the requirements for mixed-signal SerDes PHYs, including transmitter (TX), receiver (RX), and clock and data recovery (CDR) circuits.
• Conduct in-depth analysis and simulation of high-speed channel performance, including signal integrity (SI) and power integrity (PI).
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including hardware design, firmware, and system validation, to ensure successful product development and bring-up.
• Stay at the forefront of industry standards and emerging technologies, particularly related to PCIe, CXL, and high-speed optical interconnects.
• Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership across the organization.
• Work closely with partners and vendors to evaluate and select key components.
