Director of Engineering

Responsibilities:

• Conceptual design, architectural partitioning between analog and digital signal processing, and interface definition between major blocks (e.g., AFE, DSP, MAC, firmware, and external components) associated with 10G Ethernet PHY
• Participate in the transceiver systems specification of a high-speed communication integrated circuit with emphasis on the analog and mixed signal portion of the solution
• Develop behavioral simulations and author system specifications
• Develop signal processing techniques to mitigate non-idealities in the AFE
• Manage PHY development project. Work with and support the chip designers during the physical design phase of a project
• Participate in pre silicon verification, post silicon validation and specification conformance

Qualifications:

• Solid understanding of communication theory, fundamentals of signal processing, physics and modeling of transmission media and sources of interference
• Demonstrated experience in design and specification of mixed signal, high complexity chip solutions
• Requires working expertise in a system simulation tool preferably C or Matlab
• Must be proficient in three of the following areas
  • PLL’s and timing recovery circuits,
  • Data converters (ADC and DAC)
  • Analog baseband (line driver, hybrid, low noise amplifier)
  • Line interfaces (transformer)
• Ability to perform SPICE simulations highly desirable
• Past experience with copper channels highly desirable
• Past experience in standards committees and interoperability testing highly desirable

Education:

MS EE plus 15 years experience required; PhD EE plus 10 years of experience preferred
