The Product Design Engineer for overpass solutions is mainly focusing on developing high speed cable solutions for front IO, near chip and Co-package chip applications. This position will highly engage with customer in early design stage, providing technical expertise on mechanical, cable route, and application hardware.
Role and Responsibilities
- Work closely with customer and their contract manufacturers to understand their design requirements, evaluate the challenging, and provide full workable interconnection solutions including connector interference, connector fitting structural, cable management, and application hardware.
- Mechanical design and concepting in 3D model:
Front IO cage overpass solution.
Custom design for cage mechanism.
Work with thermal engineer to optimize thermal solution for customer.
Near chip overpass solutions:
Provide technical guidance to customer on product selection.
Design for different pairs configuration, connector fitting mechanism, cable output and management, and application hardware if needed.
Co-package copper overpass solutions:
Work with customer to complete the design that our connector can fit into customer’s package, including optimize connector layout in substrate, alignment feature and fitting mechanism, application hardware.
- Verify if the design if it meets design objectives by varies engineering tools such as tolerance analysis, FEA, failure mode effect analysis…
- Create complete cable assembly drawing including two ends solutions, wiring chart, cable pre-bending geometry(if needed).
- Work with cross function team(mechanical, signal integrity, manufacturing) to ensure the design can be transited to mass production.
- Create test plan and strategy for product in NPI status to verify the reliability, robustness in application before shipment.
