Sr. Signal & Power Integrity Engineer, Annapurna Labs - AI Silicon Packaging

Annapurna Labs (our organization within Amazon) designs silicon and software that accelerates innovation. Customers choose us to create cloud solutions that solve challenges that were unimaginable a short time ago-even yesterday. Our custom chips, accelerators, and software stacks enable us to take on technical challenges that have never been seen before, and deliver results that help our customers change the world. We are seeking a Sr. Signal & Power Integrity Engineer to join our hardware team and drive the SI/PI analysis and optimization of advanced packaging solutions for next-generation machine learning and data center ASICs. In this role, you will own the package-level signal and power integrity strategy - from early architecture trade-offs through design closure, measurement and validation. You'll work at the intersection of IC, package, and board, ensuring our advanced packaging technologies meet dynamic performance, power delivery, and manufacturing targets. Key job responsibilities Lead package-level SI/PI analysis for 2.5D, 3D-IC, fan-out, and silicon interposer/bridge architectures. Design and optimize package stack-ups: dielectric material selection, impedance control, layer assignment, and RDL routing for high-speed and power delivery performance. Perform high-speed channel simulations (S-parameter extraction, time-domain analysis, eye diagrams) for die-to-die and die-to-board interfaces through the package. Analyze and optimize the package PDN end-to-end: decoupling strategy, plane resonance, IR drop, and AC impedance from die bumps through substrate to board. Characterize and model on-die capacitance, deep trench capacitors (DTCs), and integrated passive device (IPD) capacitors; evaluate their effectiveness within the full-stack PDN impedance profile. Interface with SoC die-level PDN teams to align power grid requirements, current profiles, and decoupling budgets across the chip-package boundary. Perform 3D/2.5D EMIR analysis using tools such as Ansys RedHawk-SC 3DIC, Cadence Voltus, or equivalent to validate IR drop and electromigration across multi-die stacked packages. Model advanced interconnects: microbumps, C4 bumps, TSVs, microvias, PTH vias, and RDL traces for both signal and power paths. Apply equalization techniques (DFE, CTLE, FFE) and evaluate package-level channel margins for PCIe, UCIe, and custom die-to-die links. Perform clock distribution and jitter analysis at the package level, accounting for coupling, skew, and return path discontinuities. Collaborate with ASIC design, board design, and packaging/assembly teams to co-optimize package architecture for electrical performance and manufacturing yield. Identify and mitigate package manufacturing risks - warpage, via reliability, impedance variation, and material tolerance impacts on SI/PI. Develop and maintain package SI/PI modeling flows, automation scripts, and design guidelines. About the team Our team is dedicated to supporting new members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we're building an environment that celebrates knowledge-sharing and mentorship. Our senior members enjoy one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews. We care about your career growth and strive to assign projects that help your team members develop your engineering expertise so you feel empowered to take on more complex tasks in the future. Diverse Experiences Amazon values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn't followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don't let it stop you from applying. Inclusive Team Culture Here at Amazon, it's in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness. Work/Life Balance We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there's nothing we can't achieve in the cloud. Basic Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field 10+ years of experience in signal integrity, power integrity, and package design Deep expertise in package SI/PI analysis: S-parameter extraction, PDN impedance analysis, IR drop, crosstalk, and return loss Hands-on experience with EM simulation and SI/PI tools such as HFSS, Cadence Sigrity (PowerSI, PowerDC, Clarity), ADS, or equivalent Strong understanding of advanced packaging technologies: 2.5D/3D-IC, silicon interposers, fan-out wafer-level packaging, RDL, T #J-18808-Ljbffr Annapurna Labs (U.S.) Inc.
