About MBRYONICS

MBRYONICS is at the forefront of free space optical communications. Our product portfolio covers a wide range of emerging technologies from photonic integrated circuits to advanced optical systems and embedded software solutions. Our optical communications systems are integrated and deployed in satellite communications systems. The work is exciting and challenging and is at the forefront of the technology domains. As part of our expansion, we are currently looking for a suitably motivated - High-Speed Electronic Design Engineer - to join our group.

What you'll do

• Schematic capture and design for wideband analog and electro-optical front-ends (TIAs, high-speed drivers, and high-rate ADCs/DACs).
• Drive high-speed PCB stackup design, controlled-impedance routing (into tens of GHz), and pre/post-layout Signal and Power Integrity analysis (S-parameters, eye diagrams, PDN profiling).
• Develop end-to-end electro-optical noise models, calculate Bit Error Rates , and establish channel link budgets across electro-optical interfaces.
• Partner with photonics specialists, mechanical engineers, and physicists to package RF/optical dies and optimize high-frequency interconnects.
• Bring up, test, and characterize high-speed boards using lab equipment (VNA, BERT, spectrum analyzers, high-bandwidth scopes).
• Guide designs from proof-of-concept through to formal qualification testing and design reviews.
• Generate comprehensive technical documentation, including simulation reports, hardware qualification test procedures, interface control documents (ICDs), and design review materials.

Who you are

• Degree (Bachelor’s or Master’s) in Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, RF/Microwave Engineering, or a related discipline.
• At least 5 years of practical hardware engineering experience, focusing on high-speed digital, RF, or wideband analogue systems.
• Practical expertise in industry-standard PCB tools (Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, or Mentor Xpedition).
• Strong command of high-frequency layout practices, transmission line theory, return-path management, and SPICE-based circuit simulation.
• Demonstrated experience developing wideband analogue front-ends and executing SPICE time/frequency-domain simulations.
• Direct experience troubleshooting and validating GHz-range hardware with standard RF test benches.
• Skill in routing high-speed serial links and integrating them alongside primary control buses.

Desirable Qualifications

• Experience with 3D EM simulation tools (e.g., ANSYS HFSS, Keysight ADS).
• Familiarity with electro-optical components (PICs, OSAs, optical modulators).
• Background in space qualification standards (ECSS, MIL-STD, AS9100, radiation hardening).
• Familiarity with FPGA transceivers (SerDes/MGTs) or thermal-mechanical modeling.
• Knowledge of packaging electrical interconnects for photonic integrated circuits (PICs), optical sub-assemblies (OSAs), flip-chip devices, and RF wire bonding.
