Sr MGR R&D/Product Dvl Engineering

As a member of the Digital Data Networks (DDN) business in TE Connectivity you will play a key role in the design of products for high-speed products in the connector, cable assembly, and/or radio system industry—targeting high-speed communications and connectivity within datacenters and wireless infrastructure. As a manager of Product Development Engineering in Signal Integrity (SI), you will lead a team of SI engineers in all aspects of electrical design, simulation, and verification-validation testing.

You will be responsible for leading your team to successfully achieve business objectives in a dynamic business environment while fostering a culture of high performance, innovation, and employee wellbeing.

Job Requirements:

• Manage and lead a team of regional/global signal integrity engineers in establishing signal integrity design performance and functional requirements for new products
• Lead the team to perform signal integrity simulations for multiple high-speed standards on each product. This includes determining the correct simulation methodology and setup to use, as well as a good understanding of the criteria for each interface.
• Guide the team in connector and cable assembly design and qualifications from a signal integrity standpoint with a focus on making data driven decisions about the product functionality and areas for improvement.
• Create actionable recommendations based upon design reviews and simulation results.
• Lead the team in communicating actions and impacts clearly to stakeholders including management, customers, and the technical community.
• Align the technology roadmap with the market trends, customer needs, and implement accordingly.
• Drive a culture of innovation using a base of traditional approaches and external knowledge to develop innovative solutions.
• Effectively lead a regional/global team of SI engineers of varying levels of experience with different backgrounds, experiences, and cultures.
• Drive high performance by providing your team routine coaching and feedback, holding your team accountable to meet performance objectives, and providing meaningful development to increase individual/team capability.
• Manage employee wellbeing by prioritizing work, effectively managing resource loading, and providing flexibility to enable employees to successfully balance their work and personal lives.
