We prioritize user experience and technical excellence, ensuring our hardware is robust, scalable, and manufacturable. You will work in a high-impact environment, driving innovation in PCB design and collaborating with global cross-functional teams to bring cutting-edge products from conception to fabrication. Your Impact Execute complex PCB designs involving 30+ layers and advanced technologies such as HDI (High-Density Interconnect), Fine Pitch Pin Fields, and High IO counts. Drive resolution of critical issues by working closely with Signal Integrity (SI), Mechanical (MCAD), and Manufacturing Engineers. Champion and implement new ECAD design methodologies and point tools (csh, Allegro scripts) to improve local tool performance and productivity. Provide guidance to junior ECAD engineers and train peer groups on ECAD processes and best practices. Apply Signal Integrity rules, EMC, Safety, and DFM (Design for Manufacturability) guidelines to ensure first-pass success. Participate in cross-functional meetings with CM (Contract Manufacturers) and Fabrication vendors to incorporate feedback into designs. Minimum Qualifications Requires a BTech/MTech in EE/EC or a related field with 8+ years of experience in advanced technology PCB design. Proven ability to design high-complexity PCBs (30+ layers) using advanced technologies (HDI, Fine Pitch). Strong hands-on experience with ECAD tools (specifically Cadence Allegro) and scripting (csh, Allegro scripts). Deep understanding of PCB construction, fabrication/assembly processes, and Gerber generation. Strong knowledge of EMC, Safety, Signal Integrity (SI) rules, and Mechanical design constraints. Preferred Qualifications Demonstrated ability to drive productivity and process improvement areas within a design team. Excellent English written and verbal communication skills; ability to influence functional team members and drive issues to successful conclusions. Self-motivated, strong partnership skills, and a commitment to participating in "Best Practice" teams and peer group reviews. Why Cisco?
