Experience with simulation tools (e.g., Simplis, SPICE, PowerDC, Ansys SIWave)
Strong knowledge of PCB layout considerations for power circuits (e.g., parasitic reduction), PDN and PI analysis capability
Familiarity with lab equipment: oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and power integrity test setups and dynamic load testing/slamming techniques
Knowledge of EMI/EMC mitigation techniques in power designs
Knowledge of thermal solutions for high-power-density systems
Problem-solving attitude, teamwork

Nice To Haves

Experience in a high-level scripting language e.g. Python for test automation

Responsibilities

Collaborate with engineering teams across multiple geographies to evaluate, analyze and develop platform power solutions for PCB and silicon package integration. Work with the SoC Power Architects to develop and support board level power VR/PMIC implementations for ARM System on Chip solutions.
Design, simulate, and optimize high-efficiency board level DC-DC power solutions (e.g., multi-phase buck converters, VRM, PMICs) for high-performance Arm based platforms
Undertake specifications, schematic design, PCB layout reviews, and component selection to meet power delivery requirements (ripple, noise, transient response, efficiency)
Collaborate with cross-functional teams-including architects, thermal, layout, and SI/PI specialists-on layout optimization, PDN and telemetry requirements
Assist with customer design-in of VR/PMIC solutions for reference designs, ensuring feature alignment and cost optimized solutions
Develop application reference circuits and power management solutions for high performance compute, networking, server and cloud markets
Validate power solutions in the lab using oscilloscopes, e-loads, load slammers etc
Contribute to datasheets, application notes and design guides
Stay updated on industry trends in energy efficient power electronics
