As a Platform Hardware Engineer at Cirrus Logic, you will be a key technical owner of the printed circuit boards (PCBs) that integrate our cutting-edge audio and mixed-signal silicon into customer platforms. You will leverage your expertise in signal and power integrity to deliver robust, high-performance hardware solutions that meet the demanding acoustic and power efficiency requirements of top global brands. You will collaborate cross-functionally with internal development teams, customers, and partners to turn concepts into validated, scalable platforms.
Responsibilities
  • End-to-End Design Leadership: Lead complex PCB design efforts from initial concept and requirements definition through production release, including schematic capture and rigorous design reviews.
  • Integrity Analysis Ownership: Take ownership of signal integrity (SI), power integrity (PI), and thermal analysis for platform boards to ensure optimal performance and reliability under strenuous conditions.
  • Cross-Functional Requirements: Collaborate closely with customers, partners, and internal teams (Silicon, Firmware, and Marketing) to define detailed board-level requirements, constraints, and feature set.
  • Bring-Up & Debug: Drive the lab bring-up, validation, and comprehensive testing of prototype boards, including advanced debug and root cause analysis of hardware and system-level issues.
  • System Integration Support: Provide expert hardware support during platform integration into customer systems and quickly resolve complex field issues as needed.
  • Compliance & Documentation: Ensure designs adhere to stringent IPC standards and industry guidelines, maintaining meticulous documentation and revision control for all platform designs.
  • Architectural Contribution: Contribute actively to system architecture discussions and offer support based on specialized experience level.

  • PCB Proficiency: Strong, demonstrable proficiency in professional PCB design tools (e.g., Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, etc.).
  • High-Speed Fundamentals: Solid understanding of high-speed digital design, best-in-class analog layout practices, and the challenges inherent in mixed-signal systems.
  • Lab Validation: Practical, hands-on experience using lab equipment for board validation and debug, including oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and logic analyzers.
  • EMC/EMI Mitigation: Proven familiarity with EMC/EMI mitigation techniques and experience supporting compliance testing.
  • Design Standards: Ability to interpret and apply strict IPC standards and relevant industry design guidelines.
  • Problem Solving: Excellent critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and meticulous attention to detail.
  • Communication: Strong verbal and written communication abilities for collaborating with cross-functional technical teams.
Preferred Skills and Qualifications
  • Specialized Domain Experience: Experience with high-performance audio systems, codecs, Class-D amplifiers, or DC/DC power converters.
  • Advanced Simulation: Experience with specialized tools for SI/PI analysis (e.g., HyperLynx) or layout tools (e.g., Xpedition).
  • System Knowledge: Knowledge of embedded systems and key microcontroller interfaces (e.g., I2C, SPI, UART).
  • Product Context: Prior experience working with Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs) or within the demanding pace of the consumer electronics market.
  • Thermal Constraints: Familiarity with thermal modeling and managing mechanical constraints in compact, high-density form factors.
