PCB Layout Engineer

Role: PCB Layout Engineer
Location: Menlo Park CA - REMOTE
Job Description:
Must have : Allegro PCB and CAD Software
Key Responsibilities
Own end-to-end PCB layout for complex, high-density designs used in data center
server boards
Perform high-speed digital layout for interfaces like HBM,DDR4/5, PCIe Gen 5/6, USB
3.2 or higher, with attention to controlled impedance, length matching, and crosstalk
mitigation
Develop and enforce layout design rules for High-speed digital, analog, mixed-signal,
and power domains within tightly constrained wearable form factors
Collaborate with electrical engineers to review schematics and provide layout-driven
feedback on component placement, power distribution network design, and signal
routing strategies

Classification:
Public

Partner with mechanical engineers to resolve physical constraints including board
outline, connector placement, thermal management, and stack-up definition
Drive design-for-manufacturability reviews with contract manufacturers and PCB
fabricators to ensure layouts meet yield and reliability targets
Maintain and improve PCB design standards, layer stack-up libraries, and footprint
libraries to support scalable development across multiple hardware programs
Support by providing layout documentation, net tracing support, and design revision
analysis for prototype and production boards
