Position Overview
Axelera AI is seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior PCB Layout Engineer to join our dynamic team.
As a PCB Layout Engineer, you will play a crucial role in designing and developing printed circuit boards that form the backbone of our state‑of‑the‑art AI systems. This position requires translating schematic diagrams into PCB layouts, proficiency in managing eCAD component libraries, and collaborating with Electronic Manufacturing Service (EMS) partners for successful PCB manufacturing and assembly.
Key Responsibilities
Component Library Management
- Maintain and update the CAD components library, ensuring it is up-to-date with the latest components, footprints, and 3D models.
- Collaborate with Mechanical and Thermal designers to identify and introduce new components to support evolving product requirements.
- Manage tools and workflows for synchronizing data across eCAD platforms and ensuring the project database remains consistent.
- Oversee eCAD‑MCAD interoperability, enabling seamless model exchange with tools like NX, PTC Creo, and SolidWorks.
Schematic to PCB Design
- Translate schematic diagrams into PCB layouts while adhering to design guidelines, with a strong focus on signal integrity (SI), power integrity (PI), and EMC/EMI compliance.
- Optimize board utilization and stack‑up strategy by balancing electrical, mechanical, and thermal constraints, leveraging best practice in component sizing, placement, and routing.
- Design complex, high‑density, multi‑layer PCBs using tools such as Altium Designer, Xpedition, OrCAD, or KiCad.
Layout
- Design high‑speed layout in accordance with SI requirements from LPDDR4+ memory interface, as well as PCIe 3.0+ communication interface.
- Design advanced low‑voltage (
