Our CIPS Research team is focused on developing future technology systems to support growth in the rapidly evolving data center sector. The successful candidate will be directly involved in early-stage research projects, working with academic institutions, suppliers, customers, and partners to deliver proof of concept designs.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead PCBA layout activities from board concepts and lab demonstrations to product intent designs.
• Own board stack-up strategy, component placement, routing and optimisation for high-current and high-speed.
• Develop PCB design processes for high voltage/power designs, adhering to compliance and safety requirements.
• Drive best practice in signal/power integrity, EMI/EMC, thermals, design for manufacture and design for test.
• Work closely with electrical engineers to optimise design performance and product integration.
• Collaborate with mechanical/thermal teams to integrate liquid cooling, heatsinks, busbars and connectors.
• Perform design reviews and provide technical leadership across multiple projects.
• Interface with PCB fabricators and assembly partners to deliver optimised and cost-effective prototypes.
• Learn, implement and improve companywide layout methodologies, tools and practices.
• Support design for safety, compliance and reliability.
• Continuously research PCBA technologies for lab demonstrations and product integration.

Requirements

• Degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering or related field.
• 3+ years of PCB layout experience.
• Experience leading layouts for complex multilayer PCBs, owning review processes.
• Expert knowledge of PCB design tools such as OrCad, PADS, Altium Designer or Cadence Allegro.
• Strong understanding of high-current power routing, creepage and clearance, high-voltage design, differential pair routing, controlled impedance, high speed interfaces, EMC design principles, thermal optimisation and design for manufacturability.
• Experience working with power electronics(AC/DC, DC,DC, etc) and controllers (FPGAs, DSPs, MCUs, etc).
• Desirable experience: working with power modules, GaN and SiC, liquid cooled electronics and HDI technologies.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
• Demonstrated passion for innovation and commitment to continuous learning.
• We welcome applicants at all experience levels, from recent graduates to seasoned professionals.
