We are seeking a passionate High-Frequency System Design Engineer to join our R&D team in developing next-generation Automated Test Equipment (ATE) and Test & Measurement Instruments (T&MI) for the semiconductor industry. This role blends high frequency system hardware design, simulation and signal integrity analysis, offering an exciting opportunity to work on high-performance systems at the cutting edge of technology.
Role & Responsibilities
- Design and develop high-frequency mixed-signal systems for CMOS Image Sensor and digital test applications.
- Perform advanced SI simulations using tools such as ADS, HyperLynx, LTSpice, or equivalent.
- Conduct signal integrity and power integrity analysis to ensure robust high-speed performance.
- Collaborate with PCB layout engineers to embed DFM (Design for Manufacturability) and DFT (Design for Testability) principles.
- Work closely with Analog, Digital, Firmware, PCB, and Mechanical teams for full system integration.
- Simulate and validate system performance for timing, crosstalk, reflections, PDN stability, decoupling, and transient response.
- Utilize lab equipment (oscilloscopes, VNAs, TDRs, spectrum analyzers) for prototype verification and troubleshooting.
- Drive the full hardware development lifecycle: schematic design simulation PCB layout bring-up validation.
- Document design approaches, simulation methodologies, and validation results for team knowledge sharing.
- Support NPI and production teams in troubleshooting technical issues during product ramp-up.
Requirements
- Degree in Electronics, Electrical, or Communications Engineering (or related discipline).
- Solid experience and strong interest in high-frequency mixed-signal design, SI analysis, and high-speed simulation (ADS or HyperLynx preferred).
- Hands-on experience with high-speed circuit design (schematic capture, simulation, and PCB layout)
- Proficient in High-Speed interfaces such as MIPI C-PHY, D-PHY, PCIe, DDR5, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, etc.
- Experienced with multi-site load board, probe card and interface board design is an added advantage
- Familiarity with test equipment (oscilloscopes, VNAs, TDRs, signal generators, spectrum analyzers).
- Programming experience (C++, C#, Matlab, or Python) is a plus.
- Open to both experienced engineers and fresh graduates (junior positions available).
- Malaysian citizens preferred.
