Vinci
Computational Electromagnetics Engineer – Signal Integrity
$180K–$210K
Palo Alto HQ · Hybrid · Full-time · Posted Aug 17, 2026
- Experience
- 4–8 years of industry or research experience in computational electromagnetics applied to semiconductor packaging, PCB design, or high-speed electronics.
About the job
Design, implement, validate, and integrate computational electromagnetics and signal-integrity solvers for semiconductor packaging, PCB, and multi-physics simulation workflows.
What you'll do
- Build frequency- and time-domain EM solvers, quasi-static extraction, and signal-integrity analysis capabilities.
- Develop S-parameter extraction, touchstone output, and EM-to-thermal coupling workflows.
- Create validation infrastructure and integrate solver outputs into Vinci4D’s platform.
What they ask for
- Working knowledge of FDTD, FDFD, and quasi-static computational electromagnetics.
- Hands-on semiconductor-industry signal-integrity simulation experience and understanding of the full SI workflow.
- Experience implementing FDTD and frequency-domain EM solvers, plus quasi-static parasitic extraction.
- Proficiency in C++ and/or Python and software engineering practices including Git, automated testing, and regression testing.
Nice to have
- Experience with high-speed interface standards, S-parameter workflows, or EM-thermal coupling.
- GPU acceleration, domain decomposition, MoM, model order reduction, power integrity, photonics, or a relevant graduate degree.
