Opportunity Overview
Teradyne has an immediate need for a Signal and Power Integrity Hardware Engineer for a full-time position with Semiconductor Test Division personnel to develop measurement instrument products. This hardware engineering position participates as a key person in the hardware design workflow necessary to physically realize complex rf, analog, digital and mixed-signal circuits at both the board and package substrate level. The Signal and Power Integrity HW Engineering role serves as a primary interface function between PCB design, hardware engineering and manufacturing teams.  This person will play an important role in all phases of hardware development from providing assessments on architectural feasibility, planning for signal and power integrity signoff validation, performing detailed interconnect optimization and constraint development, working with the PCB design team to insure that performance and manufacturability targets are met, and collaborating with hardware engineering to insure that our simulation models and methodologies can be validated against functional prototypes.  The position reports to the Signal and Power Integrity Manager.

• Understanding of how to go about analyzing passive channels in both time and frequency domain
• Experience with concepts of PCB design, design processes, PCB fabrication and materials technology
• Familiarity with schematic and constraint driven HW design and development to insure performance and quality
• Knowledge of leading-edge EDA tools. (Cadence Allegro board design and Concept schematic entry preferred. Allegro Aurora Board Level Signal and Power Integrity Simulation and physical design environment.  Virtuoso, Spectre, Hspice, Pspice are a plus)
• Experience in the use of time and frequency domain simulation tools and models for full Board level Signal and Power Integrity Analysis. Use of 2D and 3D quasi-static, electro-static and full-wave electromagnetic field solvers such as Cadence/Sigrity or Clarity, and board level simulation with Allegro Sigrity SI and PI or Aurora are a plus
• Experience with the use of test equipment including Vector Network Analyzer, TDR and high-speed oscilloscopes to validate simulation results and models developed from simulation
• Familiar with S/Z/Y- parameter network analysis and ability to apply it to design for highspeed signal and power integrity
• Simulation and characterization of Power Distribution Networks, Target Impedance, and DC IRDrop, Joule Heating
