Signal Integrity / Power Integrity Engineer - Wearables

Meta Meta · Big Tech · Sunnyvale, CA +1

This role focuses on Signal Integrity and Power Integrity (SIPI) for Meta's hardware products, involving design, analysis, simulation, and validation of electrical systems. The engineer will lead technical strategy, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, and mentor others. While the core role is hardware engineering, there's an emphasis on integrating AI tools into workflows and adhering to ethical AI practices.

What you'd actually do

  1. 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)
  2. Develop, implement, and continuously improve SIPI methodologies, standards, and guidelines for design, simulation, and validation
  3. Drive SIPI technical strategy and influence system architecture, design trade-offs, and manufacturing processes across multiple projects and teams
  4. Lead cross-functional collaboration with electrical, silicon, packaging, PCB layout, firmware, mechanical, software, manufacturing, and external partners to deliver integrated solutions
  5. 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.)
