Job Description:

You will be a technical expert in end-to-end fixed point communication systems and DSP System Design Engineering for fiber optical physical layer transceiver products. Join a team of highly competent system and ASIC designers involved in architecture design, verification, and implementation of advanced signal processing algorithms for the physical layer of high speed data communication networks. The types of algorithms that will be implemented include: PAM/QAM single/multi-carrier transceivers, single/multi-input adaptive equalizers/cancelers, single/multi-dimensioned FEC, digital filters, and interface/integration with analog functions.

Responsibilities include:

• Develop specification, architecture, and micro-architecture of signal processing and communications algorithms

• Define and document chip requirements, architecture, verification and lab test plan

• Bit-exact MATLAB/Simulink and C/C++/Java system modeling and simulation

• Develop and run system level simulations of the transceiver and perform vector matching verification with RTL simulations

• Lab testing and debug of ASICs

• Documentation/application note development and customer support

Requirements:

• Bachelor's + 8 years of related experience, or Master's + 6 years of experience, or PhD + 3 years of experience

• Knowledge in Communication Theory and Digital Signal Processing algorithms

• Knowledge of analog circuit behavior, transmission line theory, and s-parameters

• Experience in MATLAB/Simulink, C/C++/Java, Python, Unix, Linux

• Experience architecting communications systems for high performance ASIC based products is highly desirable

• Good hands-on skills in the lab

• RTL coding expertise is a plus

• Good oral and written communication skills
