Company mission
To develop audacious AI computing platforms that elevate performance, energy and economic efficiencies, enabling our customers to rapidly deploy innovations in their AI applications.
Role
Who you are
- Master’s degree or higher in Electrical Engineering or RF is preferred but not required
- 5+ years of experience in signal/power integrity
- Expertise with time and frequency domain simulation and measurement
- Prior experience with high speed serdes and power delivery modelling/optimization
- Experience with Photonics is a plus
- Ability to deliver effective results in collaborative cross-functional teams in a fast paced startup environment
What the job involves
- Celestial AI is seeking a Senior SI/PI Engineer to help develop and validate Celestial’s world-class energy efficient AI compute and photonic data transmission solutions
- The ideal candidate will be comfortable solving the technical challenges of 2.5d die / package / PCB performance optimization and develop a design -> simulate -> correlate development process for package and PCB level interconnect and power delivery
- In this role, you will work closely with engineers responsible for analog I/O design, die physical design, photonics, packaging, PCB, and validation
- You will be responsible for performing simulations and design studies and reviewing PCB, Package, and silicon layouts to ensure Celestial AI test articles and end products meet appropriate SI/PI targets while taking into account cost-effectiveness, time to market, supply chain risk, and performance tradeoffs
- Additional responsibilities include resolving SI/PI issues encountered on the path to high volume manufacturing during the NPI phase and developing technology roadmaps to support the overall company product roadmap
- This job will require you to have strong project management, written and verbal communication skills as well as a can-do attitude to prioritize and address issues with a very high sense of urgency
- Use electromagnetic simulation software such as Ansys HFSS / SiWave or Cadence Sigrity Suite to perform pre and post layout simulations
- Use layout software such as Cadence Allegro/APD viewers, Virtuoso, Klayout, etc. to review designs and modify designs for simulation
- Use Real Time Oscilloscopes, Sampling Oscilloscopes, TDR, and VNA to verify performance, correlate models to simulation, and debug issues
- Develop strong technical relationships within the company and externally with customers and vendors as a single point of contact for SI/PI design and manufacturing problems
- Collaborate with industry peers and suppliers to stay abreast of industry advances and future roadmaps
- Resolve daily technical issues with cross-functional engineering teams in a timely manner and drive for Celestial AI’s success
- Actively manage SI/PI qualification of test articles and products, while operating within established cost and time constraints
Our take
Chip production forms the backbone of our modern, digitally enabled economy; being important enough to be of major geopolitical interest, and garnering billions of investment from the US alone. Celestial AI has developed a proprietary technology platform which enables high-performance computing solutions, using light for data movement within and between chips, enabling it to deliver "the next generation of AI acceleration products".
The company's photonic-electronic technology has sparked significant interest in the AI hardware space, and has resulted in it raising impressive investment. With this funding, the company aims to expand its worldwide engineering workforce, accelerate product development, and build more strategic supplier relationships for the future.
