I am exclusively recruiting for a Ser Des Architecture and Modelling Engineer to join my client’s team in Lausanne, Switzerland. This is a research and architecture-focused position for an engineer who enjoys investigating new ideas, developing algorithms and creating models to explore the performance of next-generation high-speed communication systems.
The role has a strong emphasis on research, innovation and developing new architectural concepts rather than simply implementing established designs.
As a Ser Des Architecture and Modelling Engineer, you will:- Research and develop new concepts for high-speed serial communication systems
- Build system level models to investigate, compare and optimise new architectures
- Develop signal processing algorithms and evaluate their impact on link performance
- Use MATLAB, Python or C++ to model communication systems and test new ideas
- Work with architects and IC designers to translate research concepts into practical transceiver architectures
- Analyse system limitations including signal integrity, noise, power and clock recovery
- Define link budgets and block-level specifications based on system requirements
- Support analog, digital and verification teams throughout the development process
My client is looking for an engineer with a strong research background in signal processing, communications, control theory or mathematical modelling.
Relevant experience could include:- Research and development of new communication or signal processing techniques
- Strong understanding of digital algorithms and control theory
- Experience developing and implementing signal processing algorithms
- System-level modelling of digital communication systems
- Strong programming skills in MATLAB, Python or C++
- Understanding of Ser Des, clock recovery or other high-speed communication systems
- Knowledge of signal integrity and analog circuit behaviour
- Experience with SPICE or Spectre would be useful
The role is aimed at someone with 5+ years of experience in semiconductor, telecommunications, communications research or scientific software development.
A Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Communications, Computer Science or a related field is expected.
The Ser Des Architecture and Modelling Engineer position would suit someone who enjoys working in an R&D environment, challenging existing approaches and turning research ideas into new system architectures.
The role requires a minimum of 3 days on-site in Lausanne.
