Principal Signal Power Integrity Engineer, Texas Institute for Electronics

Responsibilities

• Own and drive signal integrity and power integrity (SI/PI) analysis end-to-end for advanced 2.5D/3.0D heterogeneous integration packages-from initial interconnect architecture through silicon-package co-design to final signoff.
• Perform high-speed interconnect modeling and extraction (S-parameters, RLCK, transmission-line models) across TSVs, micro-bumps, hybrid bonds, RDL, and advanced substrates (silicon, glass, organic).
• Architect and optimize power delivery networks (PDN) for multi-chiplet 3D stacks-including target impedance analysis, decoupling strategy, IR-drop simulation, and PDN resonance identification from die through package to board.
• Execute full SI simulation workflows: EM extraction, crosstalk analysis, eye diagram/BER prediction, channel compliance simulation, and jitter budgeting for high-speed interfaces (PCIe Gen6/7, CXL, UCIe, SerDes, HBM).
• Build and validate SI/PI models for the 3D Assembly Design Kit (ADK)-creating accurate, reusable electrical models that enable chiplet designers to perform system-level co-design against TIE's integration platform.
• Develop reference flows, scripts, and automation that make SI/PI enablement repeatable and accessible to internal design teams and external customers.
• Collaborate directly with EDA vendors (Cadence, Ansys, Synopsys, Siemens, Keysight), OSATs, and foundries to develop, benchmark, and refine package-level SI/PI simulation flows and tool interoperability.
• Track and incorporate requirements from next-gen interface standards (UCIe, PCIe, CXL, UALink, OIF-CEI, HBM) into package design rules and SI/PI methodology.
• Guide technical strategy for SI/PI at TIE, mentor engineers, and represent TIE in industry standards bodies, customer design reviews, and technical forums.
• Required Qualifications
• BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Applied Physics, or related discipline.
• 12+ years of direct, hands-on experience i
