About the role
As an HBM Power Delivery Network (PDN) Engineer , you will be part of the Heterogeneous Integration Group (HIG), responsible for the design, analysis, and optimization of power delivery networks for next-generation HBM products. You will work closely with architecture, design, physical design, packaging, and product engineering teams to ensure robust, efficient, and manufacturable power delivery solutions that meet aggressive performance, power integrity, and reliability targets. This is a hands-on technical role focused on PDN design, EM/IR analysis, and cross-domain optimization across technology, design, and layout.
What you'll bring
- Strong experience in power delivery network design and analysis for complex SoCs or high-performance ASICs.
- Proficiency with EM/IR analysis tools such as RedHawk, Totem, or equivalent.
- Proficiency with Spice based simulation tools and 3D modeling of PDN networks.
- Solid understanding of IR drop, electromigration, dynamic voltage droop, and power noise mechanisms.
- Experience with physical design flows and close interaction with floorplanning, routing, and implementation teams.
- Familiarity with full RTL-to-GDSII design flow and signoff methodologies.
- Strong analytical and debugging skills with the ability to drive complex issues to closure.
- Experience with HBM, DRAM, or memory-centric SoC designs, including understanding of 3DIC power delivery challenges.
- Familiarity with die-package-system co-design and advanced packaging technologies (e.g., 2.5D/3D integration).
- Experience with transient and vector-based power analysis methodologies.
- Knowledge of JEDEC standards and memory subsystem behavior.
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
