About the role

  • Some Recent Press: https://www.eetimes.com/startup-boosts-scale-up-to-1000-gpus-in-a-single-domain/

Responsibilities

  • Own hardware schematic design for multi-phase buck regulators, point-of-load converters, and power sequencing circuitry.
  • Lead lab validation of power subsystems, including VRM efficiency, loop stability, DC IR drop, thermal behavior, and transient response.
  • Partner with SI/PI engineers to measure and mitigate power supply noise and Power Supply Induced Jitter on sensitive high-speed lanes.
  • Contribute to design guidelines, validation plans, and best practices for power delivery across the company's hardware platforms.

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience with schematic capture and layout oversight for complex power delivery systems, preferably using tools such as Cadence Allegro or Concept.
  • Experience characterizing VRM efficiency, bode plots, DC IR drop, ripple, noise, and transient behavior under dynamic workloads.
  • Proficiency with SPICE-based time-domain circuit simulation or similar power simulation workflows.
  • Required Skills and
  • Required Skills and Qualifications:
  • Extensive experience designing high-current, multi-phase DC-DC regulators for high-power ASICs, GPUs, processors, accelerators, or similar compute platforms.
  • Strong background in power hardware design for systems with 500W+ devices or comparable high-current power delivery requirements.
  • Deep understanding of board-level PDN implementation, decoupling strategy, power sequencing, transient response, and voltage regulation.
  • Strong lab validation skills using electronic loads, oscilloscopes, network analyzers for loop stability testing, thermal cameras, and related power measurement equipment.
  • Ability to collaborate closely with SI/PI, package, hardware, firmware, and systems teams in a fast-moving engineering environment.

Skills

  • Experience with power delivery for AI accelerators, GPUs, networking ASICs, switch ASICs, or high-performance server platforms.
  • Familiarity with power integrity interactions affecting high-speed SerDes, PCIe, Ethernet, CXL, or other sensitive interfaces.
  • Experience validating power systems under real workload conditions, including dynamic AI inference or high-utilization compute workloads.

Compensation

  • Target base salary for this role is $160,000 - $240,000 CAD per year + meaningful equity + benefits + 401k. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, experience, and location.
