The IOTS Pathfinding team is seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Engineer Intern to join our team in Guadalajara. In this role, you will support readiness and scalability for next-generation high-speed I/O technologies (PCI Express, UPI, CXL, USB) by assisting in technology pathfinding projects critical to future server platforms and Intel's data center leadership.
**Key Responsibilities **
- Develop and automate simulation workflows for next-generation electro-optical links that include components such as modulators and photodetectors.
- Benchmark electro-optical link parameters such as insertion loss, bandwidth, dispersion, and crosstalk through parameter sweeps and comparative simulations.
- Perform laboratory bench measurements using test equipment to directly validate and correlate results with simulation models.
- Analyze and document differences between electrical and electro-optical link performance, providing comparative technical insights.
- Prepare and maintain deliverables, including simulation scripts, data from
- parameter sweeps, measurement procedures, lab results, and technical reports.
- Synthesize findings to generate recommendations for new electro-optical component architectures and contributions to next-generation I/O specifications.
- Collaborate with team members presenting analysis and results in technical forums and reports.
**Behavioral Traits **
- Eagerness to learn and apply new technical concepts.
- Sense of ownership and accountability for assigned tasks.
- Work effectively in a team-oriented environment.
- Proactive, organized, and able to manage multiple tasks.
- Open to feedback and continuous improvement.
**What You Will Learn **
- Experience with optical simulation and lab analysis.
- Skills in workflow automation and test data correlation.
- Exposure to advanced I/O technologies and team collaboration.
- Insight into career paths in optical and I/O engineering.
- Supportive environment for building strong technical foundations.
Qualifications:
Minimum qualifications are required to be initially considered for this position. Preferred qualifications are in addition to the minimum requirements and are considered a plus factor in identifying top candidates.
Requirements listed would be obtained through a combination of industry relevant job experience, internship experiences and or schoolwork/classes/research.
Minimum Qualifications:
- Pursuing a Bachelor, Master's degree or PhD's Degreen in Electronics or Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related technical field (with at least 1 year remaining before graduation).
- 3+ months of experience in Electrical Engineering (both Digital and Analog Electronics).
- Advance English level.
- Must have unrestricted, permanent right to work in Mexico (this role is not eligible for visa or immigration sponsorship).
Preferred Qualifications:
- Familiarity with electro-optical components and link concepts (e.g., modulators, photodetectors, insertion loss, bandwidth, dispersion, crosstalk).
- Hands-on experience with laboratory test equipment (e.g., oscilloscopes, signal analyzers, power supplies, optical/electrical probes, multimeters) and comfort executing bench measurement procedures to correlate with simulation.
- Intermediate programming/scripting skills in Python (preferred) or C++ for workflow automation, data processing, and parameter sweeps.
- Read and interpret electronic/optical component datasheets and document results clearly in technical reports and presentations.
- Experience performing link-level analysis/benchmarking and communicating tradeoffs (e.g., electrical vs. electro-optical links) using data-driven comparisons.
A candidate who accepts an offer of employment in Mexico is required to present their own personal identification information and numbers for the following: Mexican Security Number (NSS), Tax Identification Number (RFC) and CURP identification number.
