System Design Engineer, Data Center GPU

Quick Facts

• Role: System Design Engineer, Data Center GPU

Description

Own and drive the development of next-generation data center GPU systems and accelerator cards—from system architecture and board design through PCB layout, bring-up, validation, and production readiness. Collaborate with cross-functional teams across silicon architecture, signal integrity, power delivery, firmware, manufacturing, and testing to solve challenging high-performance hardware problems. Provide technical leadership during design reviews and closure, including deep debugging and root-cause analysis.

Responsibilities

• Lead and contribute to data center GPU system and accelerator card development through production readiness

• Define platform requirements, interfaces, and technical product specifications with silicon architecture teams

• Drive board-level electrical design: schematic development, component selection, design reviews, and verification

• Coordinate development schedules, milestones, dependencies, and technical deliverables with program management

• Collaborate with vendors on circuit implementation, component selection, reviews, and issue resolution

• Oversee PCB layout and partner with signal integrity and power integrity teams for high-speed routing and power-delivery constraints

• Support Design for Manufacturing and Design for Test for robust manufacturing and test

• Perform component derating and design-margin analysis; execute board-level verification

• Plan and lead board bring-up, hardware validation, root-cause analysis, and system debugging

• Use oscilloscopes and lab instrumentation to characterize and debug high-speed interfaces and power systems

• Lead technical discussions during design reviews and drive engineering issues to timely resolution

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related technical discipline

• Several years of hands-on hardware design and product-development experience (preferably complex multilayer PCBs)

• Hands-on design experience with data center GPU/accelerator/server or other high-performance compute platforms

• Professional proficiency with Cadence schematic capture and PCB design/constraint-management tools

• Strong understanding of computer architecture and system-level hardware design

• Experience with high-speed interfaces and signal integrity concepts (including eye-diagram measurements)

• Experience with power-delivery network design (voltage regulation, sequencing, telemetry)

• Strong ability to perform complex hardware debugging using digital oscilloscopes and laboratory equipment
