## About the role

Own the board-level physical design that turns our accelerator silicon into systems. You'll take high-speed, high-power designs from placement through fabrication release — defining stackups, escaping large fine-pitch BGAs, routing multi-hundred-amp power delivery, and holding the constraint discipline that lets a channel close margin in the lab and not just in simulation.

## What they're looking for

- 8+ years of PCB layout experience on server, networking, or accelerator-class systems at high layer counts
- Hands-on with industry-standard layout tools (Cadence Allegro, Siemens Xpedition, Altium, or equivalent) and release formats (Gerber, ODB++, IPC-2581)
- Demonstrated ability to work closely with signal-integrity, power-integrity, packaging, and hardware systems teams to implement and close complex constraint sets across package and board
- (Optional) 2.5D / 3D and multi-die package interfaces (CoWoS, EMIB, chiplets, HBM), rigid-flex or backplane design, CAD automation scripting, IPC CID / CID+, or overseas PCB fabrication and PCBA partner management
