  • Deep understanding of tradeoffs between XSR/VSR/LR class SERDES and different operating regimes and challenges
  • Understanding and ownership of end to end link definition and architecture
  • Experience with bringup of PHYs
  • Understanding of the integration of PHYs into the system level

Strongly Preferred

  • Deep knowledge of and hands-on with chiplet interfaces like UCIe or BoW
