Job Description:

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Senior Hardware Design Engineer to join our team and lead the design and development of next-generation networking hardware.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on engineer with 10+ years of experience in complex hardware board design and a proven track record of taking designs from initial concept through production.

This role requires deep expertise in high-speed signaling, high-power and extremely dense PCB designs, FPGA development, signal integrity analysis, thermal management using liquid cooling, and mechanical design/integration .

The successful candidate will thrive in a fast-paced environment, demonstrate exceptional technical ownership, and work collaboratively across hardware, firmware, software, mechanical, thermal, and manufacturing teams.

Key Responsibilities



* Own the end-to-end hardware design lifecycle, from system architecture and concept development through schematic design, PCB layout, bring-up, validation, qualification, and production.


* Lead the design of high-performance, high-density, high-power circuit boards with demanding electrical, thermal, and mechanical constraints.


* Design systems incorporating high-speed serial signaling and interconnects at 100G, 200G, and beyond.


* Develop and review complex schematics, power architectures, clocking solutions, high-speed interfaces, and board-level architectures.


* Design and develop FPGA solutions as required, including FPGA selection, device configuration, interfaces, implementation, bring-up, and hardware/firmware integration.


* Perform and/or drive Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI) analysis


* Work on liquid-cooled scale-up system architectures, including high-bandwidth, high-performance interconnects and systems requiring significant compute, power, and bandwidth density.


* Collaborate with thermal and mechanical engineering teams on liquid cooling architectures, cold plates, manifolds, flow paths, thermal interfaces, and system-level thermal solutions.


* Identify technical risks early and develop practical solu...
