Job description
About the Team OpenAI’s Hardware organization develops AI-native silicon and system-level solutions for the unique demands of advanced AI workloads. Building on efforts like Jalapeño, the team is developing future generations of AI-native silicon and tightly integrated systems to power the next generation of frontier models. By co-designing chips, systems, tools, and methodologies, the team helps deliver faster, more efficient, and production-ready hardware for OpenAI’s supercomputing platform. Role Overview We are seeking an experienced ASIC Package Signal Integrity / Power Integrity Engineer to drive electrical architecture, modeling, optimization, and validation for the most advanced AI/HPC silicon and package design. This role focuses on high-speed SerDes and memory channel architecture, advanced 2.5D/3D package SI/PI, substrate to package co-design, power-delivery-network optimization, electromagnetic modeling, and simulation-to-measurement correlation. The ideal candidate has strong hands-on experience with high-speed channel and PDN analysis across ASIC packages, interposers, substrates, and power-delivery structures, and can translate simulation results into practical design requirements for interposers and package substrate design optimization. The engineer will work closely with ASIC, package, system, mechanical, thermal, power, and silicon validation teams from early architecture and feasibility studies through production bring-up. In this role you will Own SI/PI architecture and analysis for advanced AI ASIC packages from early feasibility studies through production. Develop and optimize high-speed electrical channels for 200G/400G SerDes, PCIe, HBM, DDR, and chiplet/die-to-die interfaces. Perform package, interposer and substrate modeling using 2D/3D electromagnetic solvers. Define and optimize package stack-ups, transmission-line structures, via transitions, breakout structures, return paths, ground shielding, bump maps, and ball maps based on SI/PI requirements. Develop channel loss, crosstalk, impedance, skew, return-loss, and link-budget requirements, and translate them into actionable package layout guidelines. Perform package-level PDN analysis, including impedance, loop inductance, DCIR, EM, dynamic voltage droop, current distribution, decoupling optimization, and power/ground architecture. Drive die/package co-design, including bump/BGA…
