Sr. PCB Design Engineer

Position: Sr. Staff PCB Design Engineer
Join d-Matrix and help build the future of AI inference. We’ve pioneered a memory-centric architecture that brings compute directly into memory, making AI faster, more energy efficient, and accessible on a global scale. From chips and software to rack-scale systems, our team is tackling some of AI infrastructure’s hardest challenges — and shipping breakthrough technology today. If you want to create what comes next and help make infinite inference possible, we’d love to hear from you.

Our culture is built on respect, collaboration, and direct communication. We value humility, we believe our different perspectives lead to better solutions, and we’re looking for people who are driven by execution and energized by hard problems.

Role Overview As Sr. Staff PCB Design Engineer, you will lead the physical design of the boards that connect d-Matrix's AI silicon to the world. Our "Corsair" platforms push the limits of signal density and power delivery, and you will own layout for high-complexity, high-layer-count PCBAs (20+ layers) — ensuring 112G/224G Ser Des signals stay clean and thousands of amps are delivered with minimal loss.

Beyond hands-on layout, you will serve as custodian of our Design Methodology, driving the automation, tooling, and constraint management processes that let hardware development scale with precision and speed. You'll partner closely with power, ASIC, and manufacturing teams, and have the autonomy to build layout infrastructure from the ground up.

What You Will Do Lead full-cycle layout for high-complexity AI accelerator cards (PCIe form factors) and system baseboards

Architect and manage the Constraint Manager (CM) hierarchy in Cadence Allegro, defining the source of truth for high-speed routing rules and electrical constraints

Develop automation scripts (SKILL, Python, or TCL) to streamline layout tasks, DRC checks, and reporting

Execute layout for ultra-high-speed interfaces including PCIe Gen5/6, CXL, and custom die-to-die (D2D) interconnects

Partner with Power Engineers on PDN strategy, including multi-phase VRM layouts and decoupling capacitor placement for high-TDP ASICsDrive PCB stack-up definition, including advanced low-loss materials (e.g., Megtron 7/8) and hybrid build-ups Serve as primary interface with fabricators and CMs to ensure DFM, DFT, and DFA requirements are met for high-yield production

What You Will BringBS in Electrical/Electronic Engineering or equivalent practical experience
10+ years of experience in high-speed, high-density PCB layout for servers, networking, or AI accelerators

Proficiency in Cadence Allegro Constraint Manager, including T-junctions, differential pair phase-tuning, and Z-axis delay matching

Proven ability to write and deploy SKILL scripts or use Allegro's API to automate design audits and layout routines

Deep understanding of high-speed routing techniques (back-drilling, via-in-pad, skip-vias) and HDI/ELIC design

Proven track record routing 112G Ser Des and complex DDR5/HBM interfaces

Preferred Qualifications Experience establishing a Library Management System and standardized footprint/padstack creation processes

Familiarity with PLM/PDM integration for managing layout releases and ECO workflows

Knowledge of PCB warpage mitigation strategies for large-form-factor ASICs and MCMsEqual Opportunity Employment Policyd-Matrix is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and affirmative action employer.
